Waterfront log cabin down a private dirt road next to Tanglewood
Log cabin in a very private setting on the water with a dock and access to the Stockbridge bowl. Waterfront property close to Tanglewood, Lenox, Stockbridge, hiking, and boating. We have kayaks, a rowboat, and a stand-up paddleboard for your use. Very comfortable house with a large porch with outside seating. We enlarged the master bedroom and renovated the downstairs bathroom in 2026. We have two propane fire pits, one on the deck and one on the dock; Central AC with a large fireplace; and a whole-home generator in case of storm outages. Gentle slope to the water, watch the beavers swim by, the black bear wander across the yard with plenty of deer, fox, bald eagles, and turtles to be seen.

We had a lovely 2 week stay at this log cabin. The home was perfect and well stocked. Fantastic location. We spent many hours out and about on the Stockbridge Bowl. Chuck answered any questions I had very quickly. Overall a lovely and relaxing stay
"Shangri-Log" is nestled in a very private clearing in the woods by an inlet leading to Stockbridge Bowl, which is a very pretty lake. Lovely water lilies populate the shoreline. The house itself was charmingly decorated so you just felt welcomed in, with cozy chairs and couches, and plenty of outside seating on the deck since the outdoors keeps luring you out. Our beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped, and while we did not grill outside, the high-top fire pit created a cozy spot to welcome the evening. Plenty to do in the area, but gear yourself up for traffic when Tanglewood has a program going on. Hosts Chuck and Karen were very accommodating, though we did have to puzzle through some of the appliances (for example, the dishwasher is pre-filled with detergent, which neither of us rubes had seen before). Checking in and out was simple. Overall, it was a great place to stay and we would definitely go back!

So glad you enjoyed it here. After you left, it was the shortest stay our house cleaner has ever had here (shorter than when we are here), so you must have left the place immaculately clean?
The log cabin is delightful and charming. Living room is very comfortable and sun-lit all around. Kitchen is well equipped and easy to use. There are beautiful views from every window in the public rooms. Unfortunately persistent rain prevented us from enjoying the outdoor setting or the lake. Our hosts left us with helpful instructions and were very responsive to any questions we had. Ideally located for easy access to the many activities available in the Berkshires. We have rented vacation houses for many years and this is one we would most definitely consider returning to.
Thanks very much to Chuck and Karen for making our “sisters’ weekend” one to remember for all the best reasons. Shangri-Log was spotless, very well-equipped, exceptionally comfortable, and in the perfect location to relax around the home yet provide so many things to do/see nearby. It truly was a memorable time for us, and my 3 sisters and I enjoyed our short stay immensely. Chuck and Karen were wonderful hosts, supplying an easy check-in, great information about the area, and everything we needed to know (and more!) about their home. They also dealt graciously with the special requests we made, enabling all of my sisters to have a stress-free weekend. Cannot recommend the location and our hosts strongly enough. If you experience this warm and welcoming home for yourself, I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s a 5-star gem.
Beautiful, clean log cabin home on lake with kayaks for touring the Stockbridge Bowl. Location is perfect for attending Tanglewood concerts, going to Kripalu on a day pass, and touring the Berkshires. You will be right in between Lenox and Stockbridge centers with all of their great restaurants. Try Main St Cafe in Stockbridge for a great breakfast or lunch. Try Alta in Lenox for a dinner you won’t forget. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
This property is exactly what you hope to find in the Berkshires peaceful, relaxing and close to all the local gems. As soon as you arrive it feels like home. I'd highly recommend this property.
I wish I stayed another night. Chuck was an amazing host. He was very patient answering all my questions.
The cabin was perfect for me and my friends. Space is huge and everyone had their own room. Great getaway from the city.
It absolutely felt like home

Very nice home - quiet and secluded and with a water view and activities if you wish. Very near to Tanglewood. We felt pampered staying as the guests of these kind hosts.

Thank you for renting your lovely lakeside home to my wife and me. A great location convenient to all of the wonderful and historic Berkshires towns. It was great to relax on the boat slip for some evening fishing after touring the surrounds. The home is spacious, very clean, and with all amenities for a welcoming stay. We highly recommend this rental home! Thank you, again.
