Spacious Lakeside Berkshire Home Close to Tanglewood and Jacob's Pillow

The lakeside house is built on a 1.1 acre lot with view of Lake Garfield. It is only a few minutes walk to the town's beach with life guards on site. This one-level modern home has vaulted ceilings throughout. There are two master suites with king beds and two other bedrooms with queen beds. A walk out deck from one of the master bedrooms so you can enjoy morning coffee. Three common spaces include a loft for guests to chill out. A new washer and dryer is in one of the guest bathrooms. The kitchen with new stainless steel appliances is equipped with premium cooking tools and pots. Guests can hang out at the kitchen counter bar stools while someone is preparing meals. A gas grill is available on the front deck which can be accessed from the kitchen or the great room. There are two gas fireplaces to keep you cozy at night time.

In the summer, Jacob’s Pillow Dance Center and Tanglewood Music Center are about 25 to 30 minutes away. In the winter, Ski Butternut resort is about 10 minute drive. Monterey is a small secluded town with one general store, the Bidwell Museum and a few small farms where you can get fresh milk, eggs, pork, chicken, maple syrup, goat cheese, fruits and vegetables. It is only a 15 minute drive to Great Barrington where local gift shops, organic grocery stores and farm-to-table and gastronomic restaurants are located. If you like shopping, Lee Premium Outlets is 15 minutes away.

Took family on a trip to Butternut and this was the perfect house for my family of 5. House was clean and cozy, bed comfortable and lots of space for my 3 kids. Easy drive to downtown Great Barrington. We would stay here again in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home in the Berkshires. The house was lovely and nicely accommodated our family with adult children and grandchildren. The house was clean and very comfortable. And, being so close to a small beach for swimming and boating was terrific. We had easy access to much of what the Berkshires have to offer. We hope to return!

Perfect long weekend stay for a group of 10 including kids. The house is huge with lots of great amenities. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit the Berkshires with a large group. Local beach was great also and everyone there super friendly.

Traveled from NC and Las Vegas for a family wedding. Lovely house, perfect for the seven of us. Had a swim in the lake and made some good memories. The house had everything we needed and then some! Very spacious and comfortable. I highly recommend the home. Cindy was great to work with.

Spacious, well equipped, lovely house and property. Very nice beach nearby. One minor inconvenience. Kayaks have to be brought back and forth to the beach daily. Not a long walk but it is a hill.

We had a very nice time. House was well equipped and very spacious, and all communications with the owner were easy. Only complaint is that the description of the house was “lakeside” and it was across the street from the lake. Not a problem in the winter, but if it had been summertime, we would have been annoyed.

We stayed for a week in this beautiful Berkshire home with our adult children, their spouses and our one grandchild. There is so much room in this place that we never felt crowded. There are wonderful common areas inside and outside including two decks. The kitchen is well stocked. Appliances and decor are first class. The lake is a three minute walk. Lee, Great Barrington, and Lenox are all easily accessible, as well as some great local hikes and gardens. Check out Bob’s Way and Ashintully Gardens. we would definitely consider staying here again.

My siblings and I gathered with our significant others in this well equipped and comfortable house nested in the woods in the Berkshires. We enjoyed sharing memories in this quiet setting. The beds were so comfortable, we all slept well. We were sorry we couldn’t see the lake from the deck because of trees and foliage but we were able to walk to the beach. We didn’t use the kayaks as they were too heavy for the group (all over 75). We enjoyed our trips to Jacobs Pillow and the Norman Rockwell museum. We spent our evenings gathered around the house’s large dining table eating our evening meal while laughing about our youth.

From booking our stay to the actual trip, everything was seamless. The host was quick to answer any questions we had prior to the trip, even letting us bring an extra car since it was during the spring/summer months. The house was immaculate and fit 8 adult women perfectly. The beds were super comfortable and having so many bathrooms was a bonus. Cabinets were all labeled to know where to find everything and the local attraction binder was helpful as well. We did not use the BBQ since it rained most of the weekend but did enjoy cooking in the spacious kitchen well equipped with serving. Items. Thank you to our host! It was an amazing girls getaway trip.

The house was great for our group of 4 couples, plus two of our young adult children for part of the time. Communication with Cindy was terrific! The house is lovely, spacious, bright, comfortorable, and well furnished. The kitchen is the best rental kitchen I've ever stayed in. It was great sitting in the living room and on the deck looking out on the lake, and it's a short walk to the beach. It's close to both Great Barrington and Lee. The only minor downside for us was that, although there was lots of space when we were in smaller subgroups, it was a bit crowded for all 10 of us to be together in the same space for meals or socializing. (for example: the patio table has 6 chairs, plus 3 adironack chairs that don't work well for sitting at the table. The livingroom sectional is comfortable but we needed to bring in some dining room chairs to all be in the livingroom at once). That being said, I'd still gladly stay at Cindy's house again.
