The coziness of this cabin hugs you as soon as you walk in. The area is so peaceful and quiet. And the back deck is very inviting. Can't wait to go back!!
Marlene’s cabin is in a perfect spot to get out and experience all the Berkshires has to offer. East Barrington not far south and North Adams a short drive to the north. There is nothing Marlene did not think of to make your stay a good one. Everything you would need is available in the cabin. The kitchen is perfect for enjoying some home cooked meals. My wife and I spent most of our days out and about but it was nice to come back to the cozy and quiet cabin. I highly recommend a stay here.
The property was exactly as advertised - a wonderfully clean long common with modern day amenities. Very quiet and relaxing. A great place to take a break from every day life.
The cabin was exactly as advertised and had all the amenities we desired. It made a great base of operations to visit the many cultural attractions in the Berkshires, as well as enjoy the many scenic vistas nearby. Highly recommended!
Needed some time away back in New England and this was the perfect spot. Very comfortable, quiet and clean. Within a mixed vacation home residential area on a lake it was very quiet in the fall, but likely more bustling in the summer, but it is in a lake community. Nice, well built log cabin, clean and maintained. The owner communicated everything well and is easy to contact.
The cabin are very close to Hinsdale and Dalton which has more amenities. Many state parks, woods and conservation lands nearby. Location is easy to get to.
This cabin was just perfect for our family vacation to the Berkshires. It was clean, had everything we needed, and Marlena was extremely helpful and responsive. We hope to be back some day!
This was a beautiful super clean cabin. Marlene was a fabulous host and very kindly greeted us. We definitely will stay there again if we end up back in that area.

Great Location in the Berkshires
Comfortable modern cabin near beautiful Ashmere Lake. Twenty minutes to Tanglewood and the other wonderful places to visit in this region. We love western MA.
Though my stay was brief, I certainly made enough memories to last a lifetime. Marlene’s cabin is perfectly located and undoubtedly welcoming. I hope to stay here again soon.

This is a lovely, spacious cabin with everything you could ask for, including a wonderful back deck looking out over the trees, and the lake just a short walk away. There is plenty of nearby hiking for all levels, and although located in a quiet rural setting, it is a short drive from anything you might need. It was totally relaxing and we'd love to come again!
My husband and I spent a long weekend at the cabin to celebrate our anniversary. It was perfect. The cabin was absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean and located in a peaceful location. Loved it!
This was a first family trip to visit friends in the area. The cottage was clean and the location was lovely. Beach access by short walk and was very kid friendly, even has a playground. Marlene was right next door and helpful when we locked ourselves out. We plan to return again next summer.
The log cabin was exactly like the pictures. It was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked. My husband and I particularly loved the deck out back. We used the grill, ate meals there and enjoyed looking at the stars. It was quiet and private, exactly what we were looking for. It was a bit of a drive to sights we wanted to see but it was worth it for the quiet.
I loved the property. It was clean, spacious, and with a large outdoor deck. We were visiting to see a Friday and Saturday night concert at Tanglewood, and to do some hiking on Saturday at the Pittsfield state forest. The roads were good but having a GPS and Waze certainly helped. We enjoyed our stay and will probably do it again next summer.
Had a very nice weekend at the cabin despite raining everyday. Board games, movies, a couple of rainy walks and a museum trip kept us occupied. The cabin was very clean, cute and cozy. The appliances worked well and we were very comfortable in the space. Just watch those potholes on a rainy day! Some of the roads getting into the area were unpaved, which made for interesting drives.
This was an idyllic cabin located far enough from busy life to get a true retreat and close enough for a quick frozen yogurt treat! The cabin was exact as described and prestinely clean (my husband and I both commented this was the cleanest rental we’ve done). It was well appointed with all necessities, we enjoyed barbecuing and rafting on the nearby lake. The property is located in an area offering ample hiking opportunities for outdoor people. Marlene was easy to work with, responsive and thoughtful! Would definitely recommend and we are hoping to make it back in the fall!

Modern/Clean Cozy Cabin Yet 15 Minutes From Pittsfield, MA - Had A Great Stay!
First time at this rental and was well represented in the listing. Owners were very engaged and available both prior to and during the stay.
Likes
- Modern construction with modern appliances, etc.
- Internet (not super fast but expected in the country), TV/DVD.
- One block of beautiful lake.
- A few small towns with convience stores within minutes, only 15 minutes from major shopping.
- Highly recommend the Price Chopper (Market 32) in Pittsfield for groceries, Starbucks and prepared food.
- Owners very accessilbe and accommodating.
Things That Could Make A Great Experience Even Better
- Better sofa in living room. Currently there is a recliner chair (comfy) and futon (not so comfy).
- Night stand on both sides of the bed - between phones that need charging and place for eyeglass, etc. one of us had to put those things on the floor and risk being stepped on by us or our kiddos.
- Hot water supply was minimal. Good for quick showers but not for baths. We have 2 kids who require baths plus my wife likes to enjoy a relaxed bath on vacation and the hot water supply got you to just about half a tub full of water.
We had a great time and would certainly consider a return stay!
Nice quiet and safe area. Everything is brand new inside. We walked to the little shared beach area on the lake, would be fun for kids.
About a 15 minute drive to pittsfield outskirts with restaurants.
