-- After a very pleasant visit last summer, headed back for another generous dollop of nature and serenity. The leaves were ablaze and the lake sparkled in the crisp autumn sunshine. Bliss in the Berkshires! . . . .

This was a good stay with a really responsive host! The house is nicer than it appears in pictures, and we loved the easy lake access and thoughtful touches like a fire pit, hammock, and doggy gate for the back porch.

Not great but ok in all respects. Sort of funky lake cabin. Marginally equipped- two days of dishwasher soap, one garage bag and no laundry detergent. Lake view might match minimal.

Great location across from boat launch. Kayaks were a lot of fun around the lake. Owner was very prompt in answering questions. Property was clean enough but not spotless.

We had a lovely stay. The only negative was that the beds did not have sheets on them. So when we got in very late at night, we were too tired to put the sheets on. I was a little disappointed - especially since we were asked to remove the sheets before we left.

We loved our stay at the Lake House! The home was extremely clean, cozy and well taken care of. We were surprised at how well-stocked the kitchen was, everything one could want for cooking and eating was available. The beds were very comfortable. My husband and I appreciated how quiet the neighborhood is, just what we needed. Met some of the neighbors who were very friendly and nice. We brought our two dogs who enjoyed the deck (which we were able to close off), and swimming in the lake. We highly recommend a stay here.

Bucolic Berkshire getaway on the placid shores of Ashmere Lake— This capacious, well-appointed cottage features all the comforts of home, in lush, peaceful surroundings. Michael was extremely responsive and helpful; check-in was a breeze. When not out and about, found ourselves gravitating to the cozy porch swing. We'll be back! . . . .

Nice Stay

Overall, the house was clean enough and it was clear that the kitchen had been renovated. While that was nice, it was a surprise that the guests have to make the beds upon arrival, the only towels available were beach towels. Finally, for the cost of the unit, I do not think that it appropriate that guests are responsible to resupply the basics such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap, etc.

Some Pros, Some Cons…Lots to do in the area or just to stay and hang or walk around the association. Nice to have the water view out the back door, very peaceful and serene. Yard is large and good for sitting outside. It was very quiet, great for sleeping. The rooms were comfortable, and suitable, but it was odd that the renter had to make the bed. Unfortunately the kayaks leaked, one with a gaping hole, so that was disappointing. There are other boats, but they need to be carried to the waters edge to use. And sadly the fridge had not been cleaned out thoroughly, with food remnants left. Kitchen is spacious and updated, very well stocked with all that one needs to cook.

Beautiful and peaceful lake. Right across the street from lake. My granddaughter loved playing in the water and fishing on the dock. Friendly neighborhood and beautiful area. Wish we had less rain but we still enjoyed our time at the lake house!

Great vacation

We had really good time staying here. It's our second time. The lake is quiet and is nice for fishing and kayaking with provided gear. The house offers pleasant view and easy access to the lake. There are also plenty of things to do nearby, like biking (Ashuwillticook rail trail and others), hiking, enjoying art, theater and music. Michael is a great host.

Nice Quiet Lake House

My family and I stayed here for some quiet family bonding time. The property was right near the lake. We enjoyed the peddle boat/paddle board. Played a lot of cards and games. Beautiful spot with shops close by if you forget anything, Peaceful and quiet. Would definitely come back for another visit.
