Quiet Comfortable Cabin 5 Min. Walk to Swimming and Boating
Remember the simple pleasures of a country, lakeside vacation where you can spend the day swimming or boating, exploring the countryside, or just read the afternoon away on the screened-in porch? Get back to those simple pleasures in our cabin, located in a beautiful, quiet country setting in the heart of the Berkshire Mountains. The cabin is just a five minute walk to a lake where you can swim, fish (catch and release-permit required), kayak or canoe (boats, paddles and life jackets provided). Or spend the day exploring the many surrounding towns with antiques, restaurants and shopping galore; take a drive down a country road looking for roadside farm stands; go for a long walk in the woods; or explore the nearby rock quarry (the app AllTrails is a must have for this!). At night, have dinner at an outdoor restaurant, grill on the deck, relax with a glass of wine on the porch, roast marshmallows, do a puzzle, or enjoy your favorite streaming on our Roku TV with Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and more. The house has one large main room with living and kitchen areas, and two small bedrooms. The larger room has a queen bed with a comfy mattress and luxurious linens. The smaller bedroom has a full-size bed and narrow twin upper bunk (for children only). There is a cozy screened-in front porch with lounge furniture and fan, and a back deck with gas grill and seating for four. Between the natural setting and nearby cultural and outdoor attractions, you're sure to find plenty to do here to relax and have fun at a safe distance from others.

This was such a cozy getaway! Very excellent location for day trips to so many lovely Berkshire attractions and sites. We had a lovely stay - and especially loved the front porch on one of our rain days!
Excellent, this was the second time I stayed. Planning on staying again next Thanksgiving. My dog loves it! The host was very accommodating both stays. A great place to walk with your dog. Thank you again. Christian and Elen
We appreciated how clean and well stocked the cottage was. The owner was very easy to work with. Accurate description of a quiet, secluded get-away in the woods
Very clean and well stocked cabin. Everything you need is there. Very quiet neighborhood. Perfect place to get away and relax. I would highly recommend this place especially if you like being close to nature.
Awesome hotel alterntive to launch off and enjoy all this area has to offer. Cabin was immaculate, well stocked and comfortable. Communication with owner and check in super easy. Located a little off the beaten path, very dark at night but nice to have houses sprinkled around this charming lake area. 20 minutes to several charming towns, dining and hiking trails/area attraction
It was our second time to vacation there. Great place if you're looking for a get away place. The host is responsive to any questions . The Sherwood shoppe has the best food.
Great. It was peaceful and relaxing. Had everything you needed. Very nice place in a beautiful location. Wonderful screen porch. We loved everything about it.
The cabin was well stocked and a welcome bottle of wine had been left. The bed in the main bedroom was extremely comfortable. However my friend said that the bed in the second bedroom was very hard and uncomfortable. It may be more appropriate for a family with kids.
Very cute cabin surrounded by trees. Great to be able to cook in your well equipped kitchen with the option to bbq outside if you wanted. Loved the evenings around the firepit. Enjoyed having the kitchen extras, loads of towels (for swimming too ) and the use of Bose speaker.
Cottage is updated, clean, and great location. Would go again.

Why they chose this property
Living and working in the city, I missed the country and thought the best way to teach my kids to care for the earth was to make sure they had a place where they could actually see and appreciate the natural world, and where we could all get away from the madness of the electronic world.
What makes this property unique
This cabin is an incredibly restful place. From the breeze on the screened porch to the unbelievable stars and the air at night, to the simplicity of its furnishings, it is just the place to get away from it all and remember who you are.
