My family and I loved the house. The home was spacious, but also cozy. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and was easy to clean up. The dining table was large and perfect for putting together puzzles on a rainy day. The table accommodated my family of nine. The yard was well maintained and plenty of room for the grandchildren to run. We loved the playscape and basketball court. The bathrooms were clean and if you forgot shampoo, no worries the bathrooms were well stocked. The best part of the trip is the view of the sun rising, and the stillness of the pond. I would definitely stay here again. The hosts, Niki and Neil communicated well and made the process very easy. Thank you, for letting us stay in your family home.Best regards,Holly

Fantastic house! If this house is available for the time period you want, book it! We were a multi-generational family of 9 (ages 12-78) and everyone had a terrific time. There was so much to do on the grounds that the teens preferred to just hang-out and not bother with the Berkshires' cultural activities. We all kayaked on the pond that the house is on, swam in the pool, and played endless games of ping-pong. Both the dining room table and the table on the screened porch held all of us easily for meals. The kids also went fishing on nearby Lake Copake. If you decide to partake of the cultural activities, the house is about an hour to Jacob's Pillow and and hour and twenty minutes to Tanglewood, the Clark Museum, and Mass MoCA.The house was also extremely clean, with plenty of towels, comfortable beds, and wonderful soft linens. The views of the pond were beautiful at every time of day. I can't say enough good things about this house. We just left this morning, but we already wish we were back there.

Stay in Copake

A really great property and layout, especially for multi-family parties. Tons of space inside and out and lots to do in the surrounding area. Communication was fantastic, with renovations being made that will only enhance the outdoor play and dock areas. Highly recommend!

It was a wonderful family vacation. The home provides plenty of room with the large back porch and side screened in porch Our biggest decision each day was should we kayak,swim in the pool or fish off the dock. The property was private and beautiful. Thank you Nikki for the quick communication with our questions. We would love to come back!

Quiet Family Retreat

The property was clean, quiet and comfortably accommodated a large family. Everyone enjoyed the swimming pool; and the large screened porch was great for morning coffee and nightly conversations. The adjacent pond was not conducive to swimming (weeds/algae blooms) but good for kayaking. Overall, a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the Berkshire hills. Thanks Nikki and Neill.

What a wonderful place! Our annual family vacation of 8 adults, 1teen and three 10 year olds found great things to do all day long- lake, kayaking, swimming in the pool, lawn games, night time camp fires, and watching the stars. The house accommodated all of us with extra space. Loved not having to bring sheets and towels (bah, Jersey shore!) and appreciated the little touches of paper towels, toilet paper, and hand soaps. Will certainly return!

Wonderful house in Copake!

We can't say enough good things about our stay at Nicole's beautiful house in Copake. It was perfect for our multi-generational family reunion in every way. Tons of activities for all ages, an enormous lawn, beautiful pool, and right on the lake. We kayaked, swam, played games, hung out and relaxed all together. The house accommodated our needs in every way with clean, comfortable and spacious bedrooms, kitchen, dining area for us to share meals together, grill, games, and on and on. We really couldn't have found a better spot - and super convenient from all areas of NY and beyond. Nicole was lovely and kind and always responsive. Thank you for making our stay perfect.

Wonderful vacation in a great house located in a beautiful area

The headline says it all. We had a family vacation - 8 adults and 3 kids (all 4 and under) - that was one of the best vacations we have ever had. The house was perfect for our group, offering plenty of space, privacy when you wanted it, and multiple areas to gather and enjoy ourselves. It has a rustic charm and is well equipped with pretty much everything you need in the house itself along with the pool area and dock. Copake Lake is 10 minutes away where we rented a pontoon boat for a great day on the lake. I could go on and on but suffice it to say that the house, its setting and the surrounding area combine to provide a terrific get away. The hosts are always available yet unobtrusive, and they communicate clearly and in a timely fashion - top notch experience and vacation all the way around.

Family Vacation

We just returned from a wonderful week at the Copake house. The place was ideal for a family reunion because of all the emeritus that were available. We enjoyed the pond, kayaking, fishing, the fire pit and of course the pool. The house was very clean and ideal for a large gathering with ample room for everyone. The screened porch became the puzzle gathering area and movies at night for the children. We enjoyed the surrounding area and the state park hiking trails. Last but not least, the hosts were welcoming and accessible and went out of their way to make our stay a pleasant one. My grandchildren voted the vacation as “ the best”. We look forward to returning.

Lovely Property in Copake

Our family had a wonderful time in Copake in Nikki and Neil’s beautiful property. It is great for children of all ages. We used their kayaks to explore the beautiful adjacent pond, swam in the lovely pool, watched kids enjoying the play yard, had smores at the fire pit, and just had a roaring good time. I planned to try out the basketball goal but never got around to it with so many other activities. The property is very well stocked with various toys, sporting equipment, and swimming gear. The house is clean and very well maintained. The porch was such a delight to just sit down, enjoy the lovely view, and relax. The outdoor grill was large and ample for feeding our large group of 12. Copake is a great location. Quiet country but with many adventures nearby. We rented bikes for the rail train a short distance away, paddle boarded on Lake Copake, and ventured into several nearby interesting towns. Hudson NY, with its many fine art galleries, restaurants, and shopping, is about 30 minutes away. Nikki and Neil were very attentive hosts. We strongly recommend this lovely property.

Ann, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that your family had such a fantastic time at our property. It’s great to know that the kids enjoyed the play yard, the kayaks, and the pool, and that you had fun with activities like making s'mores at the fire pit. We’re delighted that you found the house well-stocked and maintained, and that you enjoyed relaxing on the porch and using the grill for your large group. Copake truly is a special place, and it’s wonderful to hear you made the most of the nearby adventures and towns, including Hudson. Your kind words about our hosting mean a lot to us. We strive to make every guest’s stay memorable, and it’s rewarding to know we succeeded. Thank you for being such considerate guests and for leaving everything in great shape. We would love to welcome you and your family back anytime. Thanks again for your strong recommendation! All the best, Nikki and Neil

Wonderful group getaway

Our group of two families -- 4 adults, a three-year old, one-year old and 2-month old -- had a wonderful week at the Copake House. 2 adults and the small baby stayed in the upstairs wing, and the 2 adults and the two toddlers stayed in the downstairs wing, which allowed for the perfect amount of privacy for a mixed-family/group stay. The living and dining room plus two porches provided great gathering areas and ample seating to enjoy the gorgeous views. We enjoyed the pool with diving board and lawn chairs, huge yard, swing set, lake access and kayaks, and fire pit and smores. The hosts were very responsive to all questions along the way to help with planning and understanding available amenities. While the house and grounds are lovely in themselves, we also ventured out to rent a boat for an afternoon to cruise on Lake Copake with lunch from Copake Lake Boat & Ski snack bar; had a lovely family dinner at The Greens; enjoyed the beach and playground at Lake Taghkanic State Park; explored Great Barrington's cute downtown; and more. Lots of family friendly activities for all ages within a 5 to 30 minute drive. Copake General Store is perfect for sundries, like firewood, ice cream, coffee, prepared meals and more. Thanks to Nikki and Neil for providing our families the opportunity to make some wonderful summer memories.

The house was perfect for our family reunion. The house had both private spaces and large communal spaces, making it ideal for us. The kids enjoyed the pool, the teens enjoyed paddleboarding on the lake, and the adults enjoyed the expansive porch overlooking the lake. Nichole was easy to communicate with and was very helpful. Thanks for a lovely time!

This place is the best! The house is roomy and comfortable,even the dining table is perfect for our annual family vacation. Everything is thoughtfully provided and activities abound. Awaken in the morning and grab a kayak to explore the lake. The pool is lovely for an afternoon swim and then after a round of ping pong and some bar b que it’s time for an evening campfire. We just love it!
