Relaxing weekend at the lake
My husband and I had a very peaceful and relaxing long weekend at this lake house! It was very clean and has everything you need. We spent the majority of our time on the wonderful screened-in porch. The location was great and there was a little store/restaurant only a couple minutes walk up the street that was convenient and the food was really good! Overall, a great place to stay!

Birthday present
We rented the house to celebrate mom’s 70th birthday. We wanted a quiet, simple place where we could spend time together, visit, and spend time outdoors. That’s exactly what we got. We all fished and kayaked and enjoyed the peaceful scenery. Thank you.

Peaceful Retreat
We loved our two night stay in the forest :) The house was super clean, well appointed, quiet and relaxing. We didn't have great weather so didn't get to take advantage of the perfect spot on the lake or any of the kayaks or boats, but the location was a great jumping off point for visiting the various Berkshires towns.

A relaxing Easter weekend with family.
Thank you, Justin, for sharing your beautiful home with my family. We had a very nice time and relaxed in the beautiful quiet surroundings. I was so excited when I saw some Norwex items as I am a consultant and also use Norwex in my home. We hope to visit again in the warmer months as it was a perfect memory for our family. Thanks again, The Short family

Beautiful Home Away from Home
I am not even sure where to begin with this review. Four adults stayed for four nights and it was absolutely so relaxing and peaceful the entire time that I wish I was still there. The home was so clean and had everything we needed. The shelves, drawers and light switches are all labeled which was absolutely amazing! We did plenty of fishing right from the dock and caught lots of bass, pickerel, and perch. There are many choices of boats (the lake is beautiful) but the weather was windy much of the time. We did use the paddle boat three times and my husband was able to fish in some of the coves and his highlight of the trip was catching a small mouth bass. We enjoyed the fire pit two nights and appreciated the dry wood that was available. The store is a two-minute walk away which sells a little bit of everything. We spent a majority of our time on the screened in porch. Although we wished we could have blocked some of the wind and it was quite chilly at times, we stuck it out and were grateful we could still be ‘outdoors’. (On the day it rained all day, we ventured out to Papa Bobs where everyone was so friendly. We enjoyed a couple of games of pool and the food was delicious). Check out time is 12pm. Who does that? I was able to enjoy my morning coffee and not be stressed by an early check out time. Justin was quick to respond every time I reached out to him and I am so thankful we were able to use his home. We most definitely hope to return.

Great Stay
Great stay after Christmas with wife and kids which included day trips to Jiminy Leak and Butternut for skiing. Lake house was perfect place to relax after ski day. Super comfy with everything you need. Nice walking around the lake and peaceful morning water view. Some minor items to look into for the next stay, screen doors are taking a beating, deck and steps were slippery and light bulbs need changing inside and out.
