Catch your breath…and let nature take it away again...
Private and serene, our beautiful lakefront home is your idyllic retreat nestled among the rolling hills and breathtaking forests of the Berkshires. Inside and out, you’ll find magnificent views that invite you to stillness and wonder, with the lake’s mirror surface reflecting vibrant colors every season—from the rich greens of summer to the fiery reds and oranges of autumn and the crystalline blues of a magical winter.
Make the most of our outside space, enjoying all the amenities your superhost has provided. Our private dock and private stone beach with loungers are perfect for morning coffee, fishing, or simply watching the sunset. Nap in the hammock or head out on the lake. We have stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, and a pedal boat (as well as life vests) available for our guests to use. When evening comes, gather around the outdoor fire pit for stargazing and s’mores.
Inside, the house is a charming blend of rustic and modern design. Large windows face the lake, allowing natural light to flood the rooms and offering uninterrupted views of the water and the surrounding trees. The warm, inviting interior features burnished hardwood floors, exposed beams, and a brick fireplace in the living area, as well as plenty of comfortable seating and harmonious, understated décor throughout.
The recently updated and very well-equipped kitchen offers new appliances, plenty of counter and storage space and a peninsula with seating for four. It’s the perfect setup for conversation and cooking gourmet meals together, which you can enjoy at the two dining tables inside or the screened-in picnic table outside. Sliding glass doors lead to the furnished deck, complete with bbq grill and stairs that connect you to our outdoor amenities. The washer and dryer, available for your use during your stay, are conveniently located on the first floor.
With so much space to spread out, every person in your group can spend downtime the way they like best—whether it’s lazy afternoons reading or daydreaming on the sunporch facing the lake or an evening hang out in the finished basement. The basement is fully outfitted for fun, with couches, TV, games, pool table, air hockey, bar table and a mini fridge. It also has direct access to a lovely outside covered area with additional seating and a gas firepit for cozy ambiance.
Upstairs, you’ll find two newly renovated and sparkling clean full bathrooms: one featuring a tub and the other, a walk-in shower. And at the end of a full day enjoying the clear mountain air, you’ll get the best sleep ever in our three serene bedrooms, outfitted with comfortable mattresses and linens, as well as air conditioning and standing fans for your comfort.
Come share in the bliss of the beautiful Berkshires. We look forward to welcoming you!

About the host
Hosted by William Trinkle
We started hosting in Gardiner, NY. We love the area, got married at Lake Minnewaska and love sharing that with others.
We always wanted a lake house and love this lakefront home and exploring everything the Berkshires has to offer.
Why they chose this property
Well the Berkshires is a beautiful region in Western Massachusetts. It is known for its natural beauty, arts, culture and outdoor activities. Whether you're into hiking, biking, skiing, kayaking or exploring art galleries, cute towns, good food there is something to explore. Home to Tanglewood music, Mass MoCA museum, Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival, Film festivals, theatre or visit a spa or Kripalu Center for Yoga.
You can plan a day trip or just enjoy life at the lake.
What makes this property unique
Lakefront property, with a private dock and private beach. This non-wake lake is perfect for a kayak, stand up paddle board or a quick swim. There is a beautiful yard with ample seating and outdoor spaces. And inside we wanted to create a cozy, comfortable space that is easy to host and gather. I love to cook and having a functional kitchen was very important for me.
