Lake View Berkshires Retreat - Private & Minutes to Lenox
Start your day with lake views and the quiet pace of the Berkshires. Mornings here are easy and unhurried — enjoy a cup of coffee on the deck, take in the surrounding trees and water, and settle into the calm that comes with being just far enough away from it all. While the setting feels private and peaceful, you’re only minutes from Lenox, Stockbridge, and Lee, making it simple to explore local shops, dining, outdoor activities, and cultural attractions.
Inside, the home is comfortable and welcoming, with open living spaces designed for relaxing and spending time together. Large windows bring in natural light and keep the lake views front and center, while the living room offers a cozy place to unwind after a day out — whether that’s reading by the fire, sharing a meal, or simply slowing down and enjoying the surroundings.
The fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare anything from quick breakfasts to shared dinners. Enjoy meals indoors or step outside to dine on the deck, where the lake provides a peaceful backdrop from morning through sunset.
Bedrooms are set up with comfort in mind, offering a quiet place to rest at the end of the day. The layout works well for couples, families, or small groups who want both shared space and privacy.
The Berkshires are a year-round destination. Summer brings outdoor concerts, hiking, and time on the water; fall is known for its foliage and scenic drives; winter offers skiing and cozy evenings by the fire; and spring is perfect for quieter trails, local shops, and museums. No matter the season, the area offers a relaxed pace and plenty to discover — with this home providing a quiet, comfortable place to return to after a day of exploring.
Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a family trip, or a peaceful retreat with friends, this lake view home offers a comfortable place to slow down, enjoy the surroundings, and make the most of your time in the Berkshires.

A lovely home that easily accommodated 9 adults. Very easy to cook in the kitchen and enjoy the natural surroundings. Very clean and well outfitted. Loved the trail walk, which is right down the street.

Thanks for the glowing review, Chip! We're glad you enjoyed your stay at Lakeview and hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again!
The location was great for our activities, including local hiking and dining. The view was gorgeous and the house itself was beautiful and immaculate. For three couples, the amount of space was extensive, with lots of room to spread out. The furnishings were warm and very comfortable, including the beds! The kitchen and other amenities were well-appointed and very organized. Finally, the hosts are super responsive and thoughtful. We had a fantastic time!

This property easily fit all of my family of 11 for our girls’ weekend in the Berkshires! The house and view were beautiful, and our hosts were very communicative and thoughtful. The location is great and it was a quick drive to the downtown area as well as the nearby Harvest Festival. I would highly recommend this place for a comfortable, relaxing, and wonderful vacation!

This was every definition of a lakeview retreat! The house and property were beautiful and clean and had everything we needed to have a fantastic stay. There was plenty of sleeping space for each member of our group as well as a large common area for meals, playing games and hanging out. I would highly recommend this property to other large groups!

We rented this house to ski in the area with 2 families (4 adults and 6 children) and it was exactly what we were looking for! Very clean, had everything we needed, very easy to communicate with the owner and overall a great experience. We will definitely come back next time we ski the Berkshires!

Thank you Cyndi! We're happy you and your friends had such a great weekend! You were wonderful guests and we'd be happy to welcome you back anytime!
A comfortable stay in the Berkshires. Felt very much at home or at a good friend's house from the moment we arrived. Clean and well appointed property for our party of six. Conveniently located concerning shopping, our daily museum excursions and evening dinners around the surrounding towns. Honorable mention extended to the Ping Pong and Foosball (Soccer) Tables that brought us quite a few laughs as did the Yahtzee board game. Our Hosts maintained a clear and open channel of communication for any and all needs. A premier property, host and stay. Unanimously agreed! Thank you from our group of old friends in newly found spaces.

Family reunion, perfect setting, high end home with great hosts
Located between Hartford and Albany making fly-Ins easy. Hosts exceeded all expectations about communicating, clarifying parking options, room options. We would return without any concerns. As landlords ourselves we hope to model this hosts’ behavior.

This was our third year in a row staying at this house for our annual ski trip with 4 adults and 6 kids. It is always immaculate and has great common rooms for all of us. Kari and Glenn think of everything and Glenn even came to shovel the walkway and driveway for us during a snow storm (without even having to enter the house). We look forward to our time at this beautiful property every year!

We are a group of 7 women all celebrating our big 70 birthdays. This home was ideal, spacious and spotless. The location was perfect since where we went to college was also nearby. We were also able to see lots of wonderful venues in Lenox. The trail across the street was perfect for our group. We would definitely recommend this home to any group or family. Thanks for being a great host!

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful Lakeview Retreat during our long weekend trip to the Berkshires. It was well-stocked with amenities and was very neat and clean, so everyone felt right at home the entire time. The location was beautiful and quiet – we loved waking up to the water every morning and looking out over the views while we had breakfast. It was very clear that our hosts had put a lot of care and attention into making sure that we felt comfortable as a guest in their home, which we all appreciated so much! We would definitely recommend this host and location to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation in the Berkshires.

Thank you for sharing that wonderful feedback with us Yudan! We are so glad that you felt right at home, enjoying the setting and views as we do ourselves! We'd be happy to have you back anytime!
We loved our stay at the Lakeview Retreat. It has a beautiful location with views of Lake Laurel and great commons spaces for a big group (lovely outdoor deck, main living area with many seats for people to sit down and eat, fun and large loft space, and a fun room for kids in the garage). As long as adults are willing to be flexible on their sleeping arrangements (there is only one private room), which we were, this is the perfect choice for a group with kids. Kari was very responsive and made sure all of our needs were cared for. We would definitely come again!
