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.

Relaxing Stay on the Lake
House was clean and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch and the view of the lake. Very quiet neighborhood. Good base camp for leaf peeping in the Berkshires. Owner was easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend!
