This place was amazing! Tons of room in the house which is tastefully decorated. But the real joy is the screened in porch and deck overlooking the water. The use of the kayaks was the topper! Highly recommend!

A perfect lakeside getaway! Warm and inviting living space, amazing screened-in porch and a very open and workable kitchen. Any utensil you need and even an outdoor grill. It rained all the time we were here but I did get in a couple of hours of fishing and caught a few small ones. Our host were responsive and welcoming. We are actually looking at dates for next year and a possible return. Great stay!

The host was great. The cabin is awesome, and it is a great setting with the sherwood shop up the street, and the lake and wood stove. Really quiet and relaxing. The only thing is the beds are, for the most part, not comfortable. Bring extra pillows.

Amazing house . Only stayed for a weekend but was very impressed how clean comfortable this place was. Beautiful yard with great fire pit . Nice doc to sit on. We actually went out on the kayak which was amazing. Did a lot of walking as well. Will definitely be back thank you Justin.

Three of us stayed for a girls’s weekend in January. We had a wonderful time! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need. Lots of wood provided for the wood stove. Plenty of board games for enjoyment. Our only complaint is the downstairs futon mattress. It was so uncomfortable I slept on the couch. It needs to be replaced. Thank you so much for a wonderful time.

Charming lake cabin

I love this place! It's been beautifully remodeled and is very comfortable. I would love to visit when it's warmer, but it's very cozy in the snow. I can't wait to come back with my kids.

Lake House Getaway with Access to Berkshire Highlights

This property provides direct access to a lovely lake for kayaking and swimming. It is also a terrific location for Berkshire musts such as Jacob's Pillow and Tanglewood. The owner is quickly responsive to questions and directions for check in were easy to follow. The house has strong WiFi for any work days you have while traveling. Highly recommend and look forward to staying there again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Justin Simmons

Host profile image
My wife and I purchased this home in July 2016 and have already had some of the best moments of our lives with our 2 children(14 year old daughter and 6 year old son)! If you like nature and want your children to grow up enjoying it, you will love a vacation here in any season.

Why they chose this property

It is a wonderful place in all seasons to relax, enjoy nature and do nothing. Or you can venture out in any direction to explore everything the Berkshires have to off.

What makes this property unique

The rustic look of this home and the quiet and peaceful secluded spot off the dirt road made my wife and I fall in love with this lake house. The lake is private and a no wake lake which makes it safe for the kids to explore by themselves. Get ready to create great memories!
