About Gail Puntin
We have lived on Goose Pond all of our adult lives and have raised our children here. My husband actually spent summers here while growing up and has never considered living anywhere else.
What makes this Chalet unique
Goose Pond is an incredible lake. We have always been in love with it. Goose Pond consists of 2 lakes connected by a channel. Upper Goose Pond is spectacular and is surrounded by National Park Land while much of Lower Goose Pond is in preservation too. It is a large 'mountain' lake that is very beautiful,clean, quiet and sought after by many especially those who kayak and canoe. Bird watchers will love it here. The bald eagle, great blue heron, osprey, loon and many others are seen almost daily. The lake provides great fishing and is stocked with salmon and trout and has native fish including bass as well. In the fall, the mountains around the lake provide spectacular views as does the hiking available throughout the area. Fall is an incredible season on our mountain lake and the gas stove keeps you toasty and has great ambiance.

Notes
- Near Tanglewood, Jacob's Pillow and all Berkshire cultural amenities; 10 minutes to AT for hiking; other hiking nearby; swimming, kayaking and fishing right from Loft; shopping at Premiere Outlets (10 min). Fantastic boutique shopping in all area towns. Great cafes and dining too. Spring is a wonderful time to visit Goose Pond area. The mist from the lake in the morning is gorgeous and it is still a great time to be outdoors and enjoy the beautiful lake and woods surrounding it. Great time of the year for boutique shopping too! The gas stove makes it cozy and the ambience is wonderful. Fall is an incredible time to visit our mountain lake. The fall colors are gorgeous. The lake is perfect for kayaking and hiking is fabulous.

October beauty
Had a lovely 5 nights staying at The Loft in quiet Tyringham. Great location close to many wonderful museums and hiking opportunities.
Great experience!
Awesome few days spent at the Loft, with a well appointed, clean space, comfy bed, and really nice hosts. Thank you, Gail, and Tim, you made it all happen!
Perfection on the Lake
This property on Goose Pond is awesome. My husband and I had a great time. It is conveniently located right off of 90 and it is close to all in the Berkshires. The room was very clean and it had everything we needed. You could tell it was built and decorated lovingly. Warmth exuded from everywhere. The property came with kayaks/life jackets and we were lucky to be there during such a beautiful weekend. My husband and I decided that Goose Pond is our favorite lake in the Berkshires. It is just the right size for anything you would like to do. This property is truly a home away from home. Also, the owners Gail and Tim were just amazing...the perfect hosts.
Cozy Retreat
Comfortable property in a gorgeous setting, convenient to all Berkshires activities. Enjoyed kayaking and just lounging on the banks of Goose Pond. Gail and Tim helpful, friendly and accommodating. Loft has everything you need and not much you don’t. Kitchen set up for light cooking, augmented by outdoor grill, perfect for us.

Fall is a gorgeous time here at the lake. Everything quiets down and the fall foliage at and around the lake is spectacular. The gas stove in the Loft makes it so very cozy.
