This was a good stay with a really responsive host! The house is nicer than it appears in pictures, and we loved the easy lake access and thoughtful touches like a fire pit, hammock, and doggy gate for the back porch.
-- After a very pleasant visit last summer, headed back for another generous dollop of nature and serenity. The leaves were ablaze and the lake sparkled in the crisp autumn sunshine. Bliss in the Berkshires! . . . .
Nice view of the lake. Great acess to head out on our paddle boats and Michael's rowboat. We had detailed info about the propery. Beautiful, well equipped kitchen. We enjoyd our stay!
We had a great time staying in this house. The location is just perfect,close to different attractions,waterfalls ,hiking trails. It is located just on the lake and fishing is very fun too. Michael is a great host. Thank you!
Great location across from boat launch. Kayaks were a lot of fun around the lake. Owner was very prompt in answering questions. Property was clean enough but not spotless.
Not great but ok in all respects. Sort of funky lake cabin. Marginally equipped- two days of dishwasher soap, one garage bag and no laundry detergent. Lake view might match minimal.
We loved our stay at the Lake House! The home was extremely clean, cozy and well taken care of. We were surprised at how well-stocked the kitchen was, everything one could want for cooking and eating was available. The beds were very comfortable. My husband and I appreciated how quiet the neighborhood is, just what we needed. Met some of the neighbors who were very friendly and nice. We brought our two dogs who enjoyed the deck (which we were able to close off), and swimming in the lake. We highly recommend a stay here.
Bucolic Berkshire getaway on the placid shores of Ashmere Lake— This capacious, well-appointed cottage features all the comforts of home, in lush, peaceful surroundings. Michael was extremely responsive and helpful; check-in was a breeze. When not out and about, found ourselves gravitating to the cozy porch swing. We'll be back! . . . .
We had a lovely stay. The only negative was that the beds did not have sheets on them. So when we got in very late at night, we were too tired to put the sheets on. I was a little disappointed - especially since we were asked to remove the sheets before we left.
We had a fantastic time, even though the rain kept us indoors. The host provides lots of games and cards to play! Very well stocked with everything you need!
We had really good time staying here. It's our second time. The lake is quiet and is nice for fishing and kayaking with provided gear. The house offers pleasant view and easy access to the lake. There are also plenty of things to do nearby, like biking (Ashuwillticook rail trail and others), hiking, enjoying art, theater and music.
Michael is a great host.
My family and I stayed here for some quiet family bonding time. The property was right near the lake. We enjoyed the peddle boat/paddle board. Played a lot of cards and games. Beautiful spot with shops close by if you forget anything, Peaceful and quiet. Would definitely come back for another visit.
Beautiful and peaceful lake. Right across the street from lake. My granddaughter loved playing in the water and fishing on the dock. Friendly neighborhood and beautiful area. Wish we had less rain but we still enjoyed our time at the lake house!
Overall, the house was clean enough and it was clear that the kitchen had been renovated. While that was nice, it was a surprise that the guests have to make the beds upon arrival, the only towels available were beach towels. Finally, for the cost of the unit, I do not think that it appropriate that guests are responsible to resupply the basics such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap, etc.

Our cleaner does not put sheets on the bed because we don't know which ones will be used. This ensures only sheets that are used get washed. We provide over 10 towels which can be used for the bathrooms or swimming. Our cleaning fee is for the whole house (the cost of which it barely covers) but sorry, it does not include maid service. We do our best to provide a clean up-to-date house for our guests. Recent upgrades include all upstairs rooms re-painted and re-carpeted this year.
We were a family of three adults and 2 grandchildren F(14) and M (11). The house was as described in the listing. Clean, spacious, with all amenities. The kitchen is large and well equipped. We enjoyed using the kayaks, row boat and paddle board. I highly recommend this property and host.
