About this cabin rental
Remember the simple pleasures of a country, lakeside vacation where you can spend the day swimming or boating, exploring the countryside, or just read the afternoon away on the screened-in porch? Get back to those simple pleasures in our cabin, located in a beautiful, quiet country setting in the heart of the Berkshire Mountains. The cabin is just a five minute walk to a lake where you can swim, fish (catch and release-permit required), kayak or canoe (boats, paddles and life jackets provided). Or spend the day exploring the many surrounding towns with antiques, restaurants and shopping galore; take a drive down a country road looking for roadside farm stands; go for a long walk in the woods; or explore the nearby rock quarry (the app AllTrails is a must have for this!). At night, have dinner at an outdoor restaurant, grill on the deck, relax with a glass of wine on the porch, roast marshmallows, do a puzzle, or enjoy your favorite streaming on our Roku TV with Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and more. The house has one large main room with living and kitchen areas, and two small bedrooms.
The larger room has a queen bed with a comfy mattress and luxurious linens. The smaller bedroom has a full-size bed and narrow twin upper bunk (for children only). There is a cozy screened-in front porch with lounge furniture and fan, and a back deck with gas grill and seating for four. Between the natural setting and nearby cultural and outdoor attractions, you're sure to find plenty to do here to relax and have fun at a safe distance from others.

My stay was shorter than I had planned but the few days I was here was so relaxing. First of all, the bed is so comfortable, I slept like a baby. Very quiet area. Nice to walk around with my dogs and explore. The cottage was nicely outfitted with any needs you might have. Beautiful time of year to stay here! I cannot wait to go back. I also want to say I appreciate that they allowed my two dogs. My dogs are very well behaved, and I travel with them quite often. Not all places allow this, so I did appreciate this. It made my stay here more enjoyable. Till next time.

This cabin was comfortable and well equipped. The big advantage was the nearby opportunities for walks and swimming. There's also a great breakfast/lunch restaurant/store less than 5 minutes away by car.

This place was just what me and my two besties needed! It was very quiet and peaceful, and the screened in porch was just lovely. It might have felt crowded with more than three people, though. Everything worked well and the place is well-equipped.

The cottage was perfect for us two. It’s so quiet in Sherwood Forest. Great area to bike, kayak and walk. Very peaceful. So close to Jacob’s Pillow, such a treasure.
Kitchen is well stocked with cooking ware. Sherwood Shoppe, just a mile up the road, is a treat for breakfast, coffee, good low key hospitality. Highly recommend.

The house was very comfortable. Updated kitchen, bathroom, convenient washer and dryer. Big living room L-sofa. Online description was a little deceptive.
We enjoyed our stay.

We had an excellent stay at this lovely little cottage. All was as advertised and it was a great place to hang out during the times the weather was uncooperative; especially since the screen porch stayed dry. The place seemed freshly renovated. We expect to be back.

Loved everything about the cabin. It looks a bit dated from outside but very modern and convenient inside. Everything important is there and working, no clutter, very clean. The lake is perfect!

The cottage was beautiful. It had everything thing you needed. Communication with the host was great. The breeze that came in on the front screened in porch was the best!! We were able to check in a few hours earlier. The beaches are beautiful, did a lot of swimming. The Sherwood Shoppe just a mile down the road has the best sandwiches. We brought our own firestick so we wouldn't have to sign into or out of anything. Quick and easy process to watch our shows. This cottage is great. Highly recommend it. We will be back!

Very nice place! It was easy to communicate with owner and check in process was breezy. Area is very nice with walking distance to a lake and a short drive to the Lee outlets. We spent most of our time out canoeing with the life jackets, canoe and paddle required. House is rustic but a perfect place to get away and enjoy the outdoors.

Great little home! Owners had everything in the house that I could ever need. Definitely a little rural getting there but would stay again!

We’ve stayed at the cabin with our dog four times and always enjoy our peaceful stay. It’s cozy, clean and private. Also, the Sherwood Shoppe - just down the road - is a wonderful place for breakfast, homemade chili and much more.

The house is beautifully remodeled and clean. Nice open area with all like new kitchen appliances. My friend and I are thinking of going back in the summer to enjoy the lake

This was a much needed 2 day escape from life. When I say it was isolated, it was really isolated. So far away from everything it was the quietest place I have ever been to! The roads there are horrendous but that had nothing to do with the cottage. It was the best equipped I have ever seen. We brought our own food but the fridge and pantry were extremely well stocked. It was clean and comfortable. Although the queen bed could use a softer mattress. We had no complaints whatsoever! The welcoming bottle of wine was a lovely touch 💕 thanks to the owner for allowing us to stay in her lovely quaint home. It was the break we needed.

I spent a great time relaxing in the serene nature surrounding this most comfortable home. Djuna was a wonderful host for the stocked kitchen and bathroom along with delicious wine . I will be looking forward to escaping here again when I need some peace and quiet and a lovely look at the stars.

My wife and I stayed in this wonderful house for 12 days in October. The house is cute, clean and well maintained. We especially enjoyed the firepit and walking the neighborhood. The owner communication was timely and easy.

We rented the cottage for a month! It feels exactly like you want a "camp" cottage to feel. lots of wood, cozy, VERY clean! Modern amenities too, like a very quiet "mini split" heat/ac system. VERY quiet dirt road. Short walk down to the lake. Super private. Unbelievably great water pressure in the shower too LOL! Close drive to some local restaurants and only 15 minutes to a Big Y grocery store. You will love it!

Our stay was perfect. Easy check in, wonderful location and oh the charm! We were looking for a quiet, peaceful place in the woods by a lake and that’s what we got. Our host Djuna left easy instructions and a bottle of wine! The forests were fun to explore, the people in the town are so nice and friendly, all around this is a great place to relax.

My family and I stayed for three nights to get away before summer ended. The house was very clean and comfortable. My 2.5 year old son absolutely loved going out with me on the canoe. And the town of Lee, a short drive away, has lots of good restaurants. Overall, it was an excellent experience. Thank you!

Quiet cabin in the woods, was a perfect anniversary get away. We enjoyed the beautiful view, kayaking on the lake and just reading on the screened in porch.

It was just what my husband and I needed! The people in the community are very friendly and the area is beautiful. The owner clearly communicated all of the details of the workings and whereabouts of everything we needed for our stay. The cabin had all of the amenities fir a comfortable stay. We will be back and would definitely recommend this cabin to family and friends!

This adorable house surrounded by absolute quiet and peace, lots of woods, a trickling brook running along the property, a fire pit with wood provided. There is also pond access. It was absolutely what we needed to fully relax. The master bed was so comfortable! We loved every minute of it and I didn’t want to leave. I am certain we will be back again!
There is a general store very close by that has excellent food and the owners were so friendly. They showed us around their farm. We highly recommend grabbing a meal there.

We stayed during a short trip trying to see two daughters in college in CT and VT, so this was the home base halfway between. It was quiet and peaceful, off the beaten path but easy to find (especially important when arriving after dark), and exactly as described. We loved that it was not large since we all wanted to be together, but with much more space than a hotel room with the convenience of a full kitchen and beautiful surroundings. Highly recommend.

The host was very communicative and the house was perfect for our stay. A quick walk down to a beautiful lake and we both caught some fish! I highly recommend this property. You won't be disappointed.

We spent a great time in this Sherwood Forest property, which was a cosy and warm "base camp" for our family to go skiing to Otis Ridge. The cabin was in keeping with the description : a functionnal and clean accomodation !

Our group of 4 adults had a lovely weekend at this cozy cabin. The hosts did an excellent job stocking the house with many items (puzzles, firewood, and plenty of kitchen supplies) and the check-in was effortless and straightforward. The cabin was easy to find with the address and the instructions. The wifi worked great too. The top bunk of the bed bunk is very close to the ceiling, so it's a tough spot for an adult to sleep in comfortably. Also, we were charged an expensive cleaning fee and then instructed to do much of the cleaning ourselves - which is frustrating. Especially since we arrived and the house wasn't fully cleaned (there was laundry in the machine that we had to take care of). We didn't want to be charged even more, so we followed the cleaning instructions. The cleaning fee should be waived or significantly reduced.
5.0 / 5.0
The cabin was cozy, enough space to be comfortable, with all of the modern amenities you need and a great kitchen. The owner was proactive and responsive. It feels like a place where the owners truly spend significant time there and have considered everything folks need to get away while having access to all the essentials and more. My husband and I had a wonderful weekend getaway here and can't wait to return.
