We had a great time at the house. Perfect for family and young kids. Very clean. View of lake and bald eagles! were amazing. Host was very responsive and provided a lot of extra info on location places to eat, events, etc. Would definitely stay again.
Perfect place for a relaxing getaway! House was clean and filled with everything we could possibly need. We started each morning with our coffee on the deck and finished with a cozy fire by the water each night after paddling around the lake. Laurie was an incredible host, quick to answer my questions. Will stay again next year.

About the host
Hosted by Laurie Simmons
I am a sustainability professional, waste nerd, and UMass Amherst lifer (undergrad, grad, and staffer). I came to the area in 2001 for college and never left. My husband owns a masonry business and we've both been spending time at Lake Wyola for over 20 years. Western MA is great and this particular area has lots to offer whether you are looking for a great dinner out, arts/culture events, family activities, or just some quality time with the fam on the lake or surrounding trails.
Why they chose this property
This neighborhood of Lake Wyola is particularly sweet and welcoming. We are on a quiet dead end road with friendly year round neighbors. You cannot beat the energy of the lake year round, which ranges from active and lively in the summer to calm and restorative in the winter. The nearby Leverett Co-op is impressively well-stocked with quality food and necessities and Amherst is just a short 20-minute drive down the hill.
What makes this property unique
The expansive views of the lake from nearly all rooms, wrap-around deck, and the master suite are unmatched. Colorful murals throughout the home surprise and delight.. Especially in the master-bedroom, which offers an immersive rainforest experience! The showers (with amazing water pressure) and luxury fixtures are also a real treat.
