We three older women, gathered for a celebration of life for a longtime friend, wished we had more time to enjoy some quiet time at this lakeside house. What we had was perfect--peaceful without being remote.

Best place ever for a relaxing vacation

This was our 7th year staying here. The home is always immaculate & well kept. It has everything needed for an enjoyable vacation. We love how peaceful & quiet the lake is. We enjoyed using the kayaks & rowboat everyday & loved just sitting by the lake. We hope to come back again next year. Thank you Nancy for letting us stay at your beautiful lake home.

About the host

Hosted by Nancy

Host profile image
I have lived and appreciated Western Massachusetts for many years. The area where Pine Island Lake is located has culture, history, fresh food, and so much beauty. The areas is popular for biking, hiking, and exploring. I have owned and rented the house for eleven years. I work and live forty minutes away and it is pleasure to share the property so that others can enjoy it during the weeks that I cannot.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with Pine Island Lake as a relaxing place to have a vacation home. I love to swim in the lake, sit in the yard or on the deck, or relax in the living room with the fantastic view of the lake. My house faces the south and is very sunny. The sunsets on the lake are fantastic. I am involved in the lake community and I appreciate the neighbors and how much they protect this beautiful space.

What makes this property unique

The view from the living room of the lake and the many windows that slide open for an open breeze are my favorites about the property. Pine Island Lake is a swimming lake, the water is clean, it is tested regularly, and motor boats are not allowed. Stepping outside and going for an evening or early morning kayak ride is a bonus!
