About this property

Steps to Lake Buel, close to Great Barrington & Stockbridge

This charming and appropriately named "Little Cottage" was newly renovated in 2017. Enjoy a short walk (300 feet) down a dirt road to a small beach and private dock on Lake Buel, beautifully situated in the heart of the Berkshires.

Experience new and contemporary furnishings in a country setting. Antiquing, rustic dining, skiing, hiking, theater and performing arts are only minutes away! Clay tennis courts on site. Great for families and outdoor enthusiasts or those that just want to unplug from it all.

The cottage is just steps from the water where you can enjoy fishing, swimming, and boating on Lake Buel. There is a private community beach and dock. There is also a public boat ramp and parking lot just one street over.

This Property is just a short walk from Camp Half Moon, a co-ed sleep-away summer camp for kids ages 6-16 that also offers half-day camps.

Experience all the Berkshires has to offer.

About the host

Hosted by Steve Rosen

Host profile image
My parents purchased the Little Cottage almost 40 years ago. My parents would bring myself, and my two brothers up for weekends and for longer in the Summer and Winter. It is now owned and shared by my family and my two brothers' families. We have had years of special memories here and want to share it with you. In 2017 we completed a major renovation and updated the furnishings to better support our growing family. It still maintains a rustic, yet comfortable environment that fits with the woods and the Lake.
