Berkshires Cottage + Trails & Water Nearby

Family-friendly rustic-modern getaway set on 4 private acres in the heart of the Berkshires.

We designed this home as a peaceful escape from busy city life—welcome! Whether you're here to unplug, explore, or stay connected while working remotely, you’ll find comfort, charm, and convenience in every corner.

Only minutes from the best of Western Massachusetts: 4 mins to Otis Ridge Ski Area, 10 mins to Otis Reservoir, and under 30 mins to Tanglewood, Jacob’s Pillow, and the Norman Rockwell Museum. Hike trails from the backyard, paddle scenic lakes, or curl up by the fire with a good book. It’s your year-round basecamp for the Berkshires.
