Lakefront Retreat with Stunning Views | Forget-Me-Not by AvantStay
Welcome to Forget-Me-Not by AvantStay!
Bold, modern design perched right above the shores of Lake Garfield. Forget-Me-Not is a vast, three-story Berkshires retreat with unobstructed lake views, a lofted, industrial-chic design, and plenty of ways to keep your group comfortable and entertained. The home's moody exterior gives way to a bright, open common area where you'll find huge windows for tons of natural light, a spacious kitchen, and vaulted ceilings over the main living room. A cozy sunroom leads to Forget-Me-Not’s large deck, which features a BBQ grill and outdoor dining table for al fresco meals overlooking the water. Soak in the hot tub, or head inside for a round of ping pong, cornhole, or heat up in the custom-built sauna. The lower floor features a second living room complete with a kitchenette and pool table, so your group will have plenty of room to spread out. With tons of privacy and unbeatable proximity to the shoreline, this contemporary lake retreat is ready to show you the best of the Berkshires.
AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!
A visit to the Berkshires in western Massachusetts is a treat for anyone looking to pair stunning rural landscapes with an exciting cultural and culinary experience. The abundance of mountains, lakes, and woods provide a wide range of outdoor activities, from rafting and fishing in the summer to skiing and tubing in the winter. Stunning at any season, this New England region is also famous for its farm-to-table food scene and local breweries. Come see for yourself!
Local Attractions: Berkshire Botanical Gardens, Bidwell House Museum, Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center, Norman Rockwell Museum, Hancock Shaker Village, Historic Deerfield, Jiminy Peak Mountain Resort
