We spent "camp changeover weekend" at owner Robin's tree house perched over a beautiful lake. Her house is meticulously clean, comfortable, updated and just lovely. The master bedroom looks out on to the lake and in the morning you can watch the fog roll around on top of it. There is lots of room very large groups and no one gets in each others way, but the house is surpisingly intimate, so you can feel comfortable as a couple. You don't need to bring a thing, just stop at the store first, because it is about a 5 minute drive to downtown Lee where there is everything you might have forgotten. We hope to come again.Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: It was a pleasure to have you stay at my house! Warmly, Robin

We really enjoyed our week-long stay at this house. The owner met us upon arrival and showed us the amenities (and quirks). The house is as described and shown in the pictures. Communication via email and phone was easy. The house is very secluded at the end of a dirt road but close to shopping and all of the great things the Berkshires have to offer. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch overlooking the pond with our morning coffee and watching the birds come to the feeder. The owner even provided birdseed. If you are looking for a secluded, quiet spot in a nice house, I would recommend to you.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Hi Steve, Thanks for the review--I am glad you enjoyed your stay. The birds really are terrific. My favorites are the rose-breasted grosbeaks. Warmly, Robin

I've stayed here on a few different occasions and it's the ideal getaway. It's beautiful and in excellent condition. My husband and I enjoyed a perfect romantic getaway and I've also spent it with our entire family including adults and grown children. The pictures don't do the home justice - It actually looks better in real person! There is a very quaint town nearby with shops and places to eat and drink. I highly recommend the home for any type of getaway and will definatley use it again in the future!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: If you want a romantic weekend, or the perfect family reunion, please contact me to book this wonderful property. :) Robin

We enjoyed our stay at this house. Very private location, yet close to town. Great wrap around deck allows for outdoor eating, BBQs and relaxing. The house is three levels with the main living area on the main level. Bedrooms are on lower and upper levels - allows for privacy if desired. Yard, pond and trails allow you explore the nature that surrounds this house. Enjoyed the house and location - I'd would recommend!Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
