Serene, Private Waterfront House --Perfect Summer Retreat!

It was exactly as described....serene, private and waterfront. The house was well supplied with everything we needed. Had a great time with our grandchildren in the canoe and kayak. At 9 and 7 the lake was the perfect size for them. Enjoyed exploring the Lee, Stockbridge and Great Barrington areas. A vacation that gave us the escape we needed.

I'm not sure I want to write this review as I don't want others to find this place, I want it all to myself. One of the reasons we booked this particular lakehouse is because we are thinking of living on a lake when we retire and wanted to see what it was like.

I absolutely loved the house, clean, everything, I mean everything we needed was there. I wasn't sure about dishes and utensils but there was everything. I brought my own vegetable peeler and could have used a rubber spatula but that's it. They had a steamer, grater, cookie sheets, etc. etc. The rooms were clean and beds comfortable. This is the kind of house I want to retire in. The property was maintained well, my daughter particularly liked just sitting on the lounge chair by the water reading her book. We used the canoe and kayak but the lake is pretty small so it doesn't take much time to go around. The stream, oh the stream was so nice. It rained heavily when were were there and the next day you could hear the stream from the windows, very peaceful way to fall asleep. The neighborhood is very quiet. When we got there some preteens were using ATV's next door but it was a Saturday and after that it was super quiet. Also nice to just walk around the streets nearby. Only negative I could add is there were only two washcloths and I texted the manager who said he would ask the cleaning person but never got back to me. But that's a minor nitpicking thing and wouldn't let it stop anyone from staying here. I would definitely not hesitate to book this place again.

This place had everything that we needed for the best weekend getaway! The entire home was spotless and prepared for many people to stay! I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a quiet place. There’s a pond to swim in, canoes, a fire pit, everything you could hope for!

The house is cozy and the property is serene; perfect for a weekend getaway, even in the dead of winter! We stay here every time we visit the Berkshires. Highly recommended.

This rustic cottage is tucked away in woodland, on the edge of a small lake in a gorgeous position. It is very easy to drive to shops in Lee, lovely New England towns, such as Stockbridge, and interesting places such as the Norman Rockwell Museum, the Shaker village at Holden, and Edith Wharton’s home. The house was cosy, with a wood stove for extra heating, and the beds comfy. Being able to use the washer and dryer was appreciated. The kitchen is a bit rustic, but very manageable. An electric kettle would have been useful, and we felt that more wine glasses were needed (only two there!) and perhaps some of the chipped bowls replaced. One small saucepan needs to be thrown out as it was very warped on the bottom and couldn't make contact with the stove top. Hopefully these are constructive suggestions, not criticisms. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the vision of the glorious fall leaves reflected on the lake will be with us for a long time.
