Had a great 3-day experience and would return. For clarity, this is a single room with a sleeper sofa bed, mini fridge, and 2 chairs. Accommodations are minimal, however location is fantastic for the beauty of the outdoors.

The place is exactly as advertised: quiet room, terrific sunsets on the lake and much more. We enjoyed kayaking on the lake and going to tanglewood that is just a 30 minutes drive from there. Rich is a wonderful host.

Slice of heaven

Rich is more than a Super Host! We were welcomed personally upon arrival and given a tour of the property and grounds. Nestled in lush nature, the view of the lake while rocking in the swinging bench is breathtaking. Very clean and comfortable accommodations.

The property is right on a beautiful lake as advertised. The host is very friendly and cares about his property and his guests. Pros include brand new towels, lots of soaps and shampoo, spacious bathroom, good hot water supply, outdoor seating areas and use of kayaks. Cons are a pull-out sofa to sleep on with a very very soft mattress. Also the host family can be heard in the next room most mornings.

Great place in the Berkshirea.

It was the short weekend runaway we needed and were looking forward to. It's a quick ride to Pittsfield but we decided to cross the border to Manchester, VT. The place was as described, quiet, clean, secluded but easy to find. The Lake was fantastic but, due to weather, decided against taking the kayaks out. Perhaps next time. Thanks to Rich for being a great and gracious host!

Clean basic hotel-like room.

Basic hotel room experience. Comfy bed! Great shower. I only slept there, so I can’t comment on the lake or deck area. Only thing - I could hear their TV through the wall but it didn’t bother me!

Rainy weather but warm and cozy place.

It was exactly as we hoped and expected. Warm, cozy, clean, lovely decor. Didn’t really get to enjoy the very welcoming porch and patio with view of the lake because of the weather . . .maybe next time!

Great Lake Room/Home Getaway with a Lovely Sunset!

If you’re looking for a nice quiet place to get away, look no further! Rich and Maureen have a lovely home right on the water. They have a two person kayak and some personal kayaks for you to use. The jacuzzi tub was a very nice touch and my wife very much enjoyed! The room you stay in is connected to the main home however it truly is private, as well as having your own private entrance, you will hear the tv from time to time but honestly it didn’t bother at all. Rich and Maureen were great host and gave great recommendations! We will definitely be back!

Gorgeous property with lake access! The owner, Rich, is very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. It’s on a private street with almost no traffic, and it’s mostly very quiet.There are several steps to get down to the private dock, so keep in mind that you will have to go back up the stairs. It’s worth it! The lake is pristine!We loved sitting on the front porch, watching the hummingbirds at the feeder. The front garden is beautiful.This might be a “me” issue of not fully reading the property details, but when searching for stays it’s labeled as a “full house”, whereas it’s a guest suite in a house. It has its own entrance and bathroom, though. The bathtub with jets is a wonderful perk! As others have mentioned, you can hear the television in the main house, so you might want to bring a noise machine or music to drown it.Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and wish we had taken more advantage of the lake and the kayaks! We would absolutely book again!

35 mins from Tanglewood

Our accommodations at Richard and Maureen’s on Lake Ashmere in Hindsdale were just right for an overnight stay for our first visit to see James Taylorcat Tanglewood. We were pleased with the quiet one-bedroom location on the lake. Richard greeted us in person and pointed out where we could take in the lake views which included the use of his kayaks. Our room (attached to Richard’s house-w/a private entrance offered a comfortable bed, couch, tv (w/Amazon and You Tube tv) microwave, mini refrigerator, coffee pot w/coffee and cream and a large bathroom w/tiled shower and 2 sinks. It was so nice to be off the beaten-path (tucked away in the super quiet association neighborhood and away from the noise pollution of cars and trucks that travel tte busy main road close to our house back home. Loved waking up and going down to the dock to sit by the lake, have coffee and watch for Eagles. Towels,linens and soap were provided along w/plenty of brochures for what to do in the area. A hidden gem! We will definitely keep Richard’s place in mind for future trips to tte Berkshires!

About the host

Hosted by Rich LeVasseur

Host profile image
I am originally from East Hartford, CT. Relocated after college to western ma. to pursue Engineering Management in a high tech company. I was the host for a Bed and Breakfast in Lenox ma. for about 8 years until retiring at my beautiful home on Lake Ashmere in Hinsdale, Ma. It very interesting to meet new people and to be able to share this pristine location with others.

Why they chose this property

very quiet, safe and fantastic sunsets. In the winter I can even snowmobile from my dock to the highest mountain in Ma, or head north about 12 miles to Vermont.

What makes this property unique

Great Lake for peace, kayaking, paddleboarding, nature with great sunsets.
