Enjoy all that the Berkshires has to offer from our charming and contemporary 1700-square-foot cottage. Tucked away in the trees near Otis Reservoir, our home is ideal for families or friends seeking peace, quiet, and unforgettable memories. This isn’t your grandma’s cottage; we have all the 21st-century comforts and conveniences that you crave, from a smart TV to new kitchen appliances.

--BEDROOMS--
Our home can comfortably sleep up to 10 guests in four separate sleeping spaces. We provide linens and plenty of extra pillows and blankets so you can ensure a good night’s sleep.

• Bedroom 1: 1 queen bed, wardrobe, drawers, ceiling fan
• Bedroom 2: 1 queen bed, wardrobe, drawers, ceiling fan
• Loft: 4 twin beds (convertible to 2 king beds), desk, sitting area, vaulted ceiling, adjacent bathroom
• Living room: 1 queen-size sofa bed

The two bedrooms are completely private with doors that can close, and the loft space is set above the main living room and accessible via one flight of stairs.

--BATHROOMS--
Our place has two modern bathrooms, both of which feature brand-new fixtures.

• Bathroom 1: shower/tub combo, toilet, located on the first floor
• Bathroom 2: shower, toilet, located in the loft

For your convenience, we provide all the towels you’ll need, plus toiletries, a hair dryer, and an iron so you can pack light.

Want to get a head start on your post-trip laundry? There’s a laundry room with a washer and dryer next to the living room.

--KITCHEN & DINING--
One of the best parts of a Berkshires getaway is sharing a meal with friends or family, and our contemporary kitchen has everything you’ll need to whip up a gourmet feast.

The sleek stainless steel appliances include a gas stove with a hood, oven, full-size fridge and freezer with a water and ice dispenser, microwave, and dishwasher.

Because we want your mornings to be as enjoyable as possible, we provide a coffee maker and a toaster, plus a blender in case you’re in the mood for a smoothie. We’ve also stocked the cool blue cabinets with cookware, dishes, and glassware.

When it’s time to eat, everybody can pull up a seat at the dining table, which can seat 6 to 8. If the weather’s nice, we also recommend eating outside on the back deck, where you can listen to birds chirping over breakfast.

--LIVING SPACES--
Although outdoor activities like skiing and snowshoeing might bring you to the Berkshires, the cozy times with loved ones by the fireplace will make you want to come back year after year.

In our living room, you can enjoy gorgeous natural light during the day and a relaxing atmosphere in the evening. Kick back and relax on the couch, stream your favorite shows on the smart TV, or just chat with your travel companions over a glass of wine. The gas fireplace is controlled with a switch, so you can be cozy-warm in no time!

In addition to the main living room, there’s a small sitting area in the upstairs loft.

--OUTSIDE--
One of our favorite parts of our cottage isn’t even inside, but outside. Set right off the kitchen and living room is an expansive back deck with a barbecue grill, an outdoor dining table, and adirondack chairs with a gorgeous view of the trees. In the winter, once the trees have lost their leaves, you can also admire lake views from the desk.

Beneath the desk is our spacious, grassy backyard that contains ample space for the kids to run around and play. In the evening, you’ll love winding down by the fire pit, which is perfect for roasting s’mores. Stay out after the sun sets for spectacular views of the starry sky.

--ESSENTIALS--
The entire home is equipped with heat and WiFi, so you’ll always be comfortable and connected. Please note there is AC in the main living space and nearly every room (including both bedrooms) has a ceiling fan, which keeps the house cool during the summer.

We’ve taken care to furnish our cottage with luxurious vinyl floors, stylish barn doors, and thoughtful decor, so we thank you in advance for treating it with respect.

Traveling with little ones? We can provide a portable crib, inflatable toddler bed, baby seat with tray, and a changing pad upon request.

Parking is available in the driveway, which can accommodate a couple of cars.

Please contact us if you have any questions about the home or our area, and we hope to host you in the Berkshires soon!

A peaceful stay in a cool, modern house

We had a great time in this open plan house, which was very well equipped with everything you need (especially great coffee - a must). You can drive to Great Barrington and Lenox from this house - and you must go to the town beach for a swim in the beautiful lake. Annette was a great host and was quick to answer any questions. Wonderful.

Relaxing long weekend at the lake

We had such a relaxing long weekend! The house is so beautifully decorated and extremely clean. We enjoyed cooking and grilling. The house is stocked with everything you could possibly need if you forgot to bring something with you. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate during our stay so we didn’t get the chance to enjoy sitting out on the deck, but instead we had a blast sitting around the kitchen table playing card games and board games and watching movies. The hosts are so thoughtful! We hope to stay here again sometime soon!

Heavenly!

Words cannot describe how wonderful of an experience it was to stay on this property. It was immaculately clean. It was stunningly gorgeous. It was insanely comfortable. There were so many little extras and details. We had a running joke in our group whenever we would discover a vase of freshly cut flowers, or a drawer with an amenity we were not expecting to shout, "Annette, you spoiled us again!!" I cannot recommend this property enough. Book it immediately.

Family Ski Weekend

This is our second stay at what my kids call the "snow house" and we can't wait to go back. We traveled with another family of four to introduce our kids to skiing at Butternut and made so many memories in the process. The perfect house for traveling with kids. Each couple had the privacy of their own rooms and the kiddos had the run of the loft. We cooked a huge family meal and then sat around the fire relaxing before we did it all again the next day. Super clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable, and welcoming. See you in a few weeks!

Beautiful House, Owners Next Door

The house was clean and organized in a beautiful, quiet location. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was user friendly with every tool you need to make a good breakfast. I would recommend this place to a friend, with the caveat that it seems like the owners live next door. There were two instances where it seemed like the owners had been at the house when we were out, which made us a little uncomfortable. Otherwise, the trip was great.

Beautiful and Serene Getaway

The property is exactly as pictured, spotless, newly updated, a quiet neighborhood just back from the water (no access) with gorgeous foliage views in the fall. It's clear great attention to detail was paid with creating this space. The gas stove, comfy seating, cozy blankets, and comfy bed were all appreciated as well as the beautiful and fully stocked gourmet kitchen. The deck was lovely, also with comfy furniture and we enjoyed grilling and making s'mores (generously provided by the owner) over the fire pit. Having a spacious laundry room was an added bonus. This is perfect for those looking for a city escape. Communications with the owner were prompt, seamless, and helpful. Highly recommend!

Wonderful spot to share with family.

The accommodations were spacious with plenty of room for our group to comfortably be together while eating indoors or out, chatting or sitting around the in ground fire pit. The beds were comfortable and the entire space clean and very well organized (plenty of explanatory tasteful labels with lots of necessities to make your stay even easier). The surrounding area is lovely. We enjoyed beautiful fall foliage, several rewarding hikes and a nice quick excursion to Great Barrington. The host was obviously easy to communicate with even though we had no need to do so. A great experience!

Just what we needed!

This house was nicely appointed, impeccably clean and very thoughtfully stocked. The items in the refrigerator and pantry were there for us to use - much more than we’ve ever had in a rental. A goodie basket greeted up and we wish we could have taken advantage of the fire pit to make the special treat left for us! The two Queen bedrooms are identical and the beds were comfortable. Little things like the lamps by the bed, dental floss and q tips in the bathroom and a Keurig as well as a regular coffee pot and a hot water pot were all examples of little extras and attention to detail. We were 5 adults staying here and attending an event through the day. This was a great place to return to to get warm and relax. We didn’t know each other well but could make bathroom sharing work between the two bathrooms. This place is pretty perfect for 2 couples with kids - the loft has kid-sized beds and is a fun place for kids to hang out and enjoy the games provided while adults spend time downstairs or on the spacious deck. Annette is very kind and responsive. You could not want for a better host. Two thumbs up for this special place!
