Wildlife abounds and we are a birder's haven. Many a morning you can watch mist arising from the river. Walk out the door to hike, mountain bike, snowshoe, or ski in the woods. Groomed cross country ski trails are nearby. Notchview Reservation, 20 minutes away has in my opinion the best XC skiing in Western Massachusetts.We are located midway between The Berkshires with its many cultural activities and the Pioneer Valley, home to the Five Colleges: U Mass, Smith, Amherst, Mt Holyoke, and Hampshire College. The cottage sleeps four (1 BR for 2, 2 built-in twins by the wood stove). The kitchen is fully equipped. We have installed an ethernet cable which brings the broadband service directly to the Cottage. The Connection is flawless.The owner lives on the property in the main home near to the cottage. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Ski - Cross-country skiing nearby - Snowboarding nearby ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Porch/lanai ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 2 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator (single-level property) - Single level property - Well-lit path to entrance - Smoking not allowed ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Hunting nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Rafting nearby - Sledding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 700 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/57000000/56520000/56513200/56513144/8fd5d6f7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming Farmhouse - quiet, private & peaceful Worthington - Air conditioning - Parking available - Laundry - Microwave 9.4 Exceptional 70 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-08&endDate=2025-11-09&selected=56513144&PinnedHotelID=56513144&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96240000/96232500/96232485/2573bb0e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Berkshire Ashmere Lake lodging.
