About this property

Charming Cabin Lake Rights, Private Dock 3 bedroom, 2 bath. Sleeps 7.

Step back in time! Available May 15 - Oct 15. This rustic, cozy cabin from the 1920's is peaceful and charming. Sleeps 7. One bedroom has twin beds, the other a double and they share a full bath. Linens and towels provided. Great fireplace in living room. Wrap-around porch with twin bed and dining room. Third bedroom a couple of steps out the back door in a separate bunkhouse with double bed, 2nd bath nearby in main house. All furnished with country antiques. Very well equipped kitchen including new dishwasher, breakfast bar for 4. Lots of berry picking.
The cabin is set back from a dirt road on an acre of land. It is a ten minute walk down to the lake, or a short drive(no water views). It is a private association lake, very quiet as no jet-skis are allowed. We have our own dock and lake front, plus a swimming platform. There is a canoe, rowboat, and paddle boat for tenants use. Lake is stocked for fishing.
The cabin is very family friendly and has many amenities for children: swing set, sandbox, toys, games and videos, basketball hoop, 14' enclosed trampoline and horseshoe pit. Crib and highchair also available.
Well behaved pets are welcome. Please note that the pet fee is $25 per pet PER NIGHT, which won't be reflected in the quote. I will amend when you tell me whom you're bringing along!

Many hiking trails right off the property. We also have a selection of bikes for adults and kids. The area is very rural and has beautiful scenery. Norwich Lake is located 20 minutes from the cultural center of Northampton, a thriving University town with much to offer: theater, arts, great dining, antiquing.
Note: For domestic bookings a 3% credit card fee will be added above the quote from homeaway, for international the credit card fee is 5%.

Charming Cabin

Such a sweet well-appointed cabin. It’s tucked into a hilly, woodside lot, and feels like a camp from yesteryear. Everything you need is here, plus extras! Comfy little retreat! Loved the porch for morning coffee, reading and movies at night! Each room is uniquely decorated!

Perfection

Can’t say enough about this property. Perfectly designed and stocked rental for the New England lake vacation that you have in your head. The owner thought of everything and made a place that both feels like vacation and home. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Graduation Weekend!

We were in town for our daughter’s graduation and loved Michelle’s cottage. The house was just right for our family, sharing dinners and celebrating our graduate. The bedding in the house was great, comfy and soft. Lots of cute spaces and well equipped house! Michelle was a great communicator and was available if we had any questions. We loved our stay.

Fun Family Trip

Our family of 8 had a great time at the cottage and lake. There was plenty to do in both good and bad weather. Great place to social distance while forgetting about social distancing! The house is cozy and provides lots to do. Mice got into our food on day 3 but that is to be expected in the woods and was easy to solve by placing in plastic bins or the fridge.

Cozy and delightful lake cabin

This lovely little lake cabin was clean and cozy, and suited my family very well. It was fun and eclectic in its decoration and well-stocked with a good variety of useful things, including plenty to keep the kids entertained (they made the trampoline their own little kingdom =). The location and boating on the lake were the stars of the show, though. We loved it! The host, Michelle, was very kind and gave lots of good information. We had a wonderful time, and would definitely stay here again in the future.

Beautiful house and location

We visited this property with our 5 small children. The house and property was so unique and charming. We were in love with the house before even getting to the lake. The private dock had everything and more we could ask for. The same went for the house. We felt so at home. The property had anything and everything to keep our kids entertained. The communication with Michelle was quick and timely. My kids keep asking to go back! We loved our stay so much we want to make it an annual trip.

4th of July Vacation

We booked this cottage for a quick 4th of July getaway. The cottage had everything we needed for our stay. We grilled every night on the charcoal grill, we brought our own charcoal, I don’t believe it is provided. We also enjoyed smores at the fire pit. Plenty of towels and sheets available which was convenient. The lake is about a 15 min walk down the hill, great dock with a bunch of toys and shaded areas to sit. The walk back up the hill isn’t as intimidating as it seems. We also drove down and found a pull off area on the right side of the road before the dock. Also enjoyed the DVD selection and games when it rained. Definitely would stay again!

Quirky and charming

I loved our stay, and wish I could go back tomorrow! The house is old-fashioned and quirky and charming. My son and I, and our dogs, loved the lake, and barbecuing outside. If we’d brought our grandchildren, they would have also loved the swing, trampoline, horseshoe toss, exploring the woods and other outdoor activities. (My 77 year old husband, a city boy, was less enthusiastic. If you are allergic to dust, or totally accustomed to modern amenities, and expect all appliances to work perfectly, this place might not be for you.) If you love nature, peace and quiet, water, and antiques, and are willing to be a little resourceful, you will be well rewarded by staying here. Can’t wait to return!

Great place but a bit of a hike to the lake

We really enjoyed this well-appointed spacious cottage. Michelle was generous and responsive and we had a wonderful time. We were meeting for a family reunion and hosted a BBQ for 20-30 people at the cottage one evening. There was plenty of room outside; the grill, picnic table, and fire pit were perfect, with plenty of seating and the trampoline and horseshoes were great for the kids. What would have made the cottage absolutely perfect would have been easier lake access. The dock and boats and float make it easy to enjoy the lake, but they are down the road and hill a ways so you have to plan the trip. Parking is a bit tricky and we found it easier to walk, but it takes about 15 min each way and the hill on the way back will meet your cardio workout requirements. All in all, though, we really enjoyed our stay and wished we could have stayed longer!

We loved the rustic cabin. Not far from the lake. Serene and peaceful. The fire pit in the back yard is nice for family bbqs and s’mores. Lake is so fun to swim and paddle out in the boats.

Nothing like August in the Berkshire hills...

Such a nice location and a well appointed cabin..old style with lots of chairs, couches, beds, etc. Beautiful view of mountain range at sunset (cabin is not on or facing lake), cool breezes on hot days. Lake access is a short drive with tight parking along lakeside road. Nice dock area, could use a handrail for old folks like us. What a great family lake!

Great cabin, great location

This is a wonderful property. The historic structure is filled with vintage decorations and mementos. There also are all the comforts of home, including a well-appointed kitchen, comfortable lounging areas, and great outdoor space. Our group of old friends enjoyed a welcome long weekend together, especially sitting around the firepit and down on the dock. You will make some great new memories of your own.
