Our family of five had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakehouse in Becket. The home was spotless, spacious, and perfectly suited for all of us. We spent our days fishing off the dock, paddling around the lake in the kayaks and paddleboards, and soaking in the peaceful surroundings. William was an incredibly responsive host, and everything about our visit went smoothly. We’re already talking about coming back next summer.

We had a great stay at this beautiful home. The house and yard were both spacious with numerous sitting areas and gathering spaces. The water area was a perfect place for us to sit and keep an eye on our young grandchildren who spent hours splashing and playing on the beach area in the backyard.The house was very clean and had pretty much everything you could want: items you may have forgotten, things that made the visit easier, various boats for the water. The host was exceptionally quick and helpful in responding to any inquiries that I had. This was a definite win!

We rented this house because of its proximity to the Otis Ridge Ski Resort. It was clean, cozy, and stocked with every single pantry item you can think of. Thank you for making our first family ski trip an amazing one. We'll definitely be back in the summer!

Perfect lakefront retreat!

We had a fantastic time. Unbeatable views, very comfortable sofas and squashy chairs to relax, and plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen is fully stocked with high-quality bakeware, knives, and anything you might need for food prep. My kids (6 & 10) loved the direct access to the lake and we all enjoyed looking for wildlife! I would book this property again in a heartbeat.

We were impressed the moment we walked through the front door. The open living room and kitchen are beautiful, with the lake immediately drawing your eye through the enclosed porch. The home is thoughtfully decorated with artwork and furnishings that are both stylish and comfortable, and there are plenty of inviting places to sit, both inside and out.The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, the beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were spacious and modern, and the AC and ceiling fans kept the house cool even on hot days. The fenced yard was also a huge plus for our two active dogs.We especially enjoyed the kayaks, paddle boat and the floating dock, which we tied to one of the buoys and used for relaxing on the lake. The main dock was perfect for morning coffee and evening drinks. I’d give the lake a solid B for swimming. The pebble entry is nice, but it becomes weedy as you swim farther out. It didn’t bother me much, though one member of our group wasn’t a fan.The location made it easy to explore the Berkshires. We enjoyed day trips to Lenox and Great Barrington and appreciated coming back to the peace and quiet of the lake each evening. William was responsive whenever we had questions.Overall, this is a beautiful, comfortable lake house that we’d happily recommend.

We spent a week here with my in laws, and our two kids, and it was a super fun trip! This house was made for exactly what we wanted, a relaxed week on the water with plenty of room for everyone to spread out.The water access was incredible. Right out back you’ve got kayaks for both kids and adults, paddleboards, and a paddle boat, plus a little rock beach area where the kids could swim. We did a ton of fishing right from the dock.What really stood out was how many different spaces there were to enjoy, both inside and out. You could tell someone put real thought into the layout. Outside there’s a dining table, an outdoor couch to relax on, a screened in room for dinners, and multiple fire pits for the evenings. Inside, my favorite spot was this incredible room overlooking the lake with a full wall of windows. It had a cozy couch area, a table for games, and even a little workout nook on the other end.There’s also a finished basement with a pool table, an extra couch and TV, and air hockey, which the kids loved.The house itself was spotless. We brought our dog and he had a great time too. Both bathrooms were well stocked with shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, and plenty of towels for the house and the beach. The beds were comfortable, and there were even sleeping pads for the kids.On top of all that, the owner was very responsive any time we had a question. If you’re looking for a comfortable, thoughtfully set up home right on the lake, I’d highly recommend this place!

Photos don’t do this house justice! The home is decorated with a cozy mid-century modern vibe, and the property itself is amazing—private, beautifully maintained, and set right on the water. The location couldn’t be better. We loved having so many water toys to choose from, including kayaks and stand-up paddle boards. Even our basset hound joined in the fun, thanks to the doggie-sized life vest provided for her very first swim.

We have done a Girls Weekend in the Berkshires for the past 6 years & this house has it ALL. Beautiful views, sunsets, cozy sitting areas, CLEAN bathrooms & kitchen. Everything is labeled & well stocked. The Host was responsive & super helpful with things to do in the area. It is a bit of a drive to get to shops & restaurants, but we really didn’t feel the need to venture out. We got to relax & reconnect at this beautiful property. Fastest Girls Weekend -EVER. We hope to go back next year

Amazing view!!!They thought of everything even things we didn’t think we wanted, right down to little things like motion sensing lights in the bathrooms. I’m a chef and cooked for my friends and I was surprised they had everything I needed. We are looking forward to coming back for another stay.

Perfect winter weekend getaway

I booked the weekend for my girlfriends birthday with a couple of her friends. The game room was a massive hit as was the propane fireplace outside. We also enjoyed watching the snow fall on the frozen lake. William was very responsive to messages and calls. We enjoyed our stay immensely and are hoping to come back in the summer

Serene

Outfitted with everything a guest could want or need, from a fully equipped kitchen, linens, and cozy afghans to marshmallows for the hot chocolate. Spacious house with lots of places to gather or spread out. Beautiful setting—snow covered frozen lake. We would love to return in warm weather to make use of the lakefront. Very responsive and considerate host.

This was the perfect home for a family gathering. There were lots of spaces for being together and lots of ways to have alone time. We could have fit even more than 8 sitting and eating together at the same table. The ones who enjoyed swimming swam every day, The ones who liked water toys kayaked a bd paddle boarded and peddle boated. When it rained we had plenty to do inside. The kitchen is well equipped and the host was very available.

We had a wonderful stay. This property is perfect. The house is beautiful, clean, and well appointed with everything you could possibly need--even sharp kitchen knives (never seems to be the case in vacation rentals)! A game room in the basement offered pool, air hockey, and a rec space separate from the main living space.The lake front is lovely--plenty of dock space with Adirondack chairs for lounging, a pea stone beach with chaise lounge chairs, kayaks and paddleboards, and grass for lawn sports or laying in a hammock. The property is remote enough to feel like a getaway, but an easy /- 30 minute drive to Lenox, Lee, Stockbridge, and Great Barrington. We took easy day trips to Mass MOCA and the Norman Rockwell museum, and enjoyed excellent meals out in addition to cooking in the beautiful kitchen. In Becket itself is a charming and tasty little restaurant called the Neon Newt with good coffee, breakfast, and pastries. I would highly recommend this property for your Berkshires getaway. Hope to return!

Perfect Getaway

Exactly what we were hoping for and more! We loved our stay and had a great experience from start to finish. Bill is an exceedingly gracious and helpful host and his property is amazing. The house is spotless and decorated lovely—comfortable and classy. We were impressed by all the thoughtful touches throughout—especially the games room and super-equipped kitchen and fire pit. We had plenty of room to spread out and slept well in the comfortable bedrooms. The peace and quiet was like a slice of heaven. I don’t think I could ever tire of looking at the beautiful lake. (It kept distracting me from my book!) We are already talking about coming back the next time we need a break from the hamster-wheel of day-to-day life!

A Perfect Retreat at the Berkshire Lakehouse

Our stay at the Berkshire Lakehouse was truly wonderful! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed, making it incredibly convenient for our group. The views were absolutely stunning—whether we were sipping coffee in the sunroom in the morning or winding down in the evening, we spent hours staring out at the lake, taking in the peaceful surroundings.There was plenty of space for everyone to relax, with cozy spots to unwind and larger areas perfect for group activities. We had so much fun playing pool and foosball, and there was enough room for everyone to enjoy without feeling crowded. The combination of comfort, entertainment, and natural beauty made this a perfect getaway.We couldn't have asked for a better place to relax and recharge. Highly recommend the Berkshire Lakehouse for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with plenty to do in the area year-round!

This property is very clean, well equipped with kitchen equipment. The rooms are spacious with lots of seating. A dining table in the kitchen area and a table in the SIP for coffee/breakfast or any other meal. This area had tons of comfy couches for looking out at the lake playing or reading! The basement was fun at night where we played air hockey and pool and watched football. There is another table where you can have a meal in another screened in area on the basement level outside as well as a propane fire pit with a large couch and comfy chairs. If you prefer a wood fire there is a lovely fire pit where we roasted marshmallows for s’mores and another patio set next to the fire pit. The dock was very nice where we sat at night star gazing! We kayak’d and paddle boarded. My granddaughter played on the private beach in front of the house and went in the water in her swan tube! This house was perfect for our family to have fun and relax.
Beautiful view from the house
