House was cute and well-maintained, we loved going out on the pond with the kayaks and enjoyed the fire pit at night. Ann Marie was a great host, very responsive. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a spot in the Berkshires, close to all of the other towns.

Over Due

Our time here was very nice. Morning coffee on the deck, spectacular. Beds were comfortable. The lake was clean and refreshing. I will not be staying again because the stairs down from road to house, then house to lake, proved to be too much. Lovely property.

What a beautiful place! And larger than the square footage implies. Everything about the place was perfect, better than perfect. Very clean and beautifully decorated on the inside. Outside space is gorgeous, such a pretty lake! We went kayaking/canoeing and swimming every day. Had fires in the firepit at night, played croquet, and had writing time in the screened in porch under the house. This was my first vacation with my adult kids in many years and everyone had a wonderful time. Look forward to coming back soon!

Perfect quiet getaway

This little cottage was just right for us.VRBO was way off on the location which was very disappointing, but the place itself made up for that. Owner was very responsive. Would now love to visit and stay in the summer to take advantage of the lake!

Cozy cottage

The cottage has wonderful furnishings for gathering together or curl up with a good book. The sunroom has beautiful views of the water for the days the porch can not be used due to weather. The porch has plenty of sitting without being crowed. The living room and kitchen invite you to sit, visit, play games, etc. Lots of games, videos, outdoor activities for family and friends to enjoys during their stay. Whether a family or a couple book here, you will not be disappointed. Our hosts are friendly and always responsive to questions. Choose this cozy cottage if you wish to have a vacation that will meet all yours needs.

Lovely little place, pretty view, quiet

Cozy cottage is charming and restful, with a gorgeous view of the lake from a big room in front. Has everything you could need, and the host is friendly and responsive. My wife and I have stayed there twice, both times in winter, and loved it both times. Completely quiet, peaceful and restful. As with all VRBOs, when booking, keep an eye on the fees — you may find the actual bill far higher than you’d expect based on the “per night” rate. But like I said, that’s an issue with most properties, and despite that, we’ve stayed twice and will likely stay again.

Wonderful getaway in a beautiful setting

We enjoyed our stay. The cabin is picturesque and has all the items anyone could need for a relaxing stay. We loved sitting on the deck for morning coffee and nighttime star gazing. We took days trips to the surrounding towns, all of which we found charming and never more than an hours drive away.

Stay at Lake cottage in Otis

We really enjoyed our stay at this charming cottage right on the lake. The house is small but very well equipped and it was great having the kayaks right there to use! The host was very helpful with getting to know the cottage and area. Only caution is the stairs coming down to the cottage. there are a lot of stairs and last step can be hard to see.
