About this cabin rental
This charming and appropriately named "Little Cottage" was newly renovated in 2017. Enjoy a short walk (300 feet) down a dirt road to a small beach and private dock on Lake Buel, beautifully situated in the heart of the Berkshires.
Experience new and contemporary furnishings in a country setting. Antiquing, rustic dining, skiing, hiking, theater and performing arts are only minutes away! Clay tennis courts on site. Great for families and outdoor enthusiasts or those that just want to unplug from it all.
The cottage is just steps from the water where you can enjoy fishing, swimming, and boating on Lake Buel. There is a private community beach and dock. There is also a public boat ramp and parking lot just one street over.
This Property is just a short walk from Camp Half Moon, a co-ed sleep-away summer camp for kids ages 6-16 that also offers half-day camps.
Experience all the Berkshires has to offer.

Summary of reviews
Guests enjoyed the well-equipped house, beautiful lake, peaceful surroundings, and helpful hosts. Highly recommended!
5.0 / 5.0
My husband and I stayed for a week and enjoyed all of it. The house is well equipped and comfortable. We particularly liked using the canoe on the beautiful lake. While the lake bottom is a bit mushy and reedy, the water was still warm enough in September to float on a raft and it gets less reedy if you swim out a bit. The beach area is wonderful and so nice to be that close to the lake. Our host was communicative and helpful. Highly recommend!
5.0 / 5.0
While the property was very comfortable for the 2 of us, there were amenities available for larger groups in terms of space and lakefront "toys" Larger families/groups would be comfortably accommodated in the multiple bedrooms, sitting and dining areas, i.e. indoor seating for 14
5.0 / 5.0
The home was spacious, beautiful and had anything you needed. The lake was right there, and it was quiet and peaceful. Close to shopping, restaurants hiking and sights. Incredible and gracious host.

5.0 / 5.0
Little Cottage is perfect for that escape. It’s clean, cozy and the surroundings are beautiful. A short walk to a lovely pond with a beach, dock and access to canoes and kayaks. However be prepared for the lack of wifi/internet or central air. It made for a few warm nights. A spiral staircase is the access to the basement, where 2 bedrooms are found. You can also access it from outside, though not easily. But for a true getaway, it’s perfect.
5.0 / 5.0
Well laid out three bedroom home with outstanding common areas for games, dining, etc. Lots of wood, stone and glass. Short downhill trek to beach and new dock/float. Shared clay tennis court and b-ball hoop. Five minute drive to local Appalachian Trail and ten minutes to Great Barrington and it’s great offerings.
5.0 / 5.0
This property is extremely nicely renovated, clean, and well stocked. Expect your pick of a variety of comfy chairs! The ceiling fan in the center of the house does a great job of cooling the whole area. The kitchen is well stocked with working gadgets and tools for people who enjoy cooking. We enjoyed the fireplace on a couple of cool June evenings, and also took advantage of the dock for sunning and a few quick dips. The owner was friendly, took time to talk with us and answer questions before our stay, and responded in a timely and helpful way to communication thereafter. We hope to return soon!
5.0 / 5.0
Excellent stay - lovely cottage and wonderful lake deck.
5.0 / 5.0
The access to the lake was a little confusing at first, but it was a lovely spot. Property was clean and everything was as described. There is no internet and Verizon has ZERO service in the lake valley, but for$60 you can get a T-Mobile SIM card that gives you some minimal service with a phone hot-spot. That was the only drawback. Not really enough for streaming video. ATT may be better, not sure. House was very comfortable.
5.0 / 5.0
With summer camp cancelled for our grandchildren we decided to make our own. This rental gave us all the break and activities that we where looking for. Our daughters and grand children loved the lake and the paddle boards that we used. I loved the well equipped kitchen and Weber grill that made feeding our group easy and fun. Small drawbacks are that both bathrooms are on the main floor, those staying in the two bedrooms down below need to walk upstairs for access. Verizon has no service here and there is no internet. The comfort and pluses of this location, the beautiful knotty pine interior far out weigh the minuses. I will most definitely be contacting the owner for repeated rentals in the years to come.
2.5 / 5.0
Little Cottage was clean and ready for guests upon arrival. It is very well equipped for recreation - paddle boards, a kayak and canoes on the beach, which is just 100 yards down a lane to Lake Buel. Steve was friendly and informative host as well. We hope to return.
2.0 / 5.0
Steves cottage is clean, spacious, and ideally located. And Steve himself is a most gracious host.
