The house, property and the area are just wonderful. The owners pretty much thought of everything. Very comfortable, we enjoyed ourselves very much. Loved the screened-in porch. Lots of games and puzzles, kitchen was well-stocked with equipment and utensils. The private dock is lovely with good water toys and a raft to swim out to. You can sit in the sun or the shade, plenty of seating. Lake was warm, even in September. Not far from Great Barrington, which has lots of interesting stores and restaurants.
A couple of things to note: 1) The 4th bedroom is very small and only has a seat that turns into a double bed. No chest of drawers or closet. It's currently not shown with the rest of the pictures on the website. 2) You have to walk through the kids bunk room to get to the master bedroom. This was not a problem, but good to know. 3) The lake is a fair distance from the house. Maybe a 3 minute walk. It would be hard for someone elderly or with any sort of walking issue to get to.

This was a GREAT property! Several acres, trails, private dock on beautiful Lake Garfield, a large comfortable house that accommodated all nine of us easily, and everything you could ask for was provided by the host. Canoes, kayaks, and paddleboards were all available and in excellent condition. This place was perfect for a family vacation, and we look forward to visiting again!

We loved our time at Smiling dog! The house is absolutely beautiful and very well appointed. We had lots of space for 6 adults, 1child and our dog. We particularly enjoyed the screened porch! It was so nice to have our meals outside and not be bothered by bugs.
I appreciated the prompt response to any questions prior to our stay. Laura was a wonderful host!
The lake is accessed across a small gravel road. We never saw a car on the road all week. Our family had no trouble walking down to the lake but it would not be good for anyone with difficulty walking.
We really can’t say enough but how great the property and location was for our trip.
I highly recommend this rental!

First of all, this is a lovely property, clean, a beautiful dock for swimming and tubing and kayaking. The first floor is spacious and comfortable with a big kitchen, a big dining room and a very comfortable living room for gathering. The second floor is lovely also, but a few things we didn’t know. To get to the Primary bedroom (Master), you have to go through what is considered the children’s bedroom. We didn’t know that and it is not mentioned in the listing. The Primary is lovely as is the private bathroom for the Primary. The kids bunks are great, my adult children slept there with our granddaughter and it was fine. The other bedroom is comfortable also. The small bedroom, not so much. It has an old futon that is hard to pull out unless you know the trick—the owners’ didn’t explain how and it took us an hour to figure it out. My adult children who slept on it did not think it was at all comfortable. Other problems—no hot water for the first 24 hours and finally, the owners’ local caretaker came over and said someone (not us) had turned off the furnace to heat the water. (It was fine after, but the owner never called to apologize for that and we thought that was odd.). Then on the second day, we heard beeping like an alarm. After problem solving, a somewhat impatient call from the owner, we discovered a hidden carbon monoxide detector and then the whole house alarm kept going off on our last day and owner did not return calls. Owner was glib about these issues

We had a wonderful stay - the house was fully equipped with everything we needed, clean and comfortable. It was perfect for our group to snuggle in and catch up for the weekend.

Beautiful property! Stunning pollinator gardens and meadows. Room for pups to run. Short walk to lake. Nice dock and plenty of lake toys. Enclosed porch was a dream. Enjoyed time with family in dining and living room as well as games on porch. Great for stargazing. Owners provided detailed information in advance for most questions we usually have which made the stay simple. Made beautiful memories!

Smiling Dog Meadow was the perfect home and location for our large family vacation. The home is very well appointed, very clean, family- and dog-friendly and comfortable. The dock, floats, kayaks and other water “toys” made Lake Garfield a true playground for my grandkids! And oh, our black lab loved her very own enclosure playspace! Bravo !!

Fun house with lake access!
We are 2 families with 4 children ages 9 to 16 and we all had a great time! It is a short walk to the lake where they have a private deck, dock and lots of water toys to play with.

misrepresented, surveillance equipment in house, owner was rude and intrusive
1- Against VRBO policy, camera and audio-recording equipment were in the home. Homeowner was unapologetic and demanded we leave it activated.
2- The floating dock is covered in goose poop. The house manual directs guests to clean it themselves.
3- Homeowner changed the check out time from the time stated on listing, after we paid in full. He interrupted our stay, repeatedly demanding we acknowledge the new check-out time, even after we agreed.
4- If you are asthmatic, bring your meds. The basement is musty and the smell travels to the living room.
5- It is not clear from the listing that the lake is not visible from the house and a fair distance away. Older or less mobile adults may struggle with the slope and you will be accompanying young children to the house for every snack and bathroom visit, esp because there is a road to cross and frequent bear sightings.
6- Guests are expected to purchase basic cleaning supplies and tools for the house, such as a broom and trash can liners. When we contacted the owner to ask for the location of basic supplies, we were curtly informed to buy it ourselves and not to contact him or the caretaker. We spent part of our first evening buying supplies that have been provided at every other house we have rented.
7- The area around the house is very wet. Great if you like catching frogs, not great if you hoped to kick a soccer ball or play frisbee.
8- In apparent retaliation for deactivating the illegal surveillance equipment, the homeowner fabricated a property damage claim, stating a disgusting lie about our family that we urinated on a bed and did not clean it up. I worked as a house cleaner and another member of our party has cared for vacation properties- we are extremely conscientious. I personally checked the rooms when we left and to make it easier for the cleaner, I stripped the sheets which were in no way wet or damaged.
VRBO permits owner responses, and I have no doubt that the owner will attempt to discredit or minimize this review. I have nothing to gain by writing this, and in fact will likely suffer a negative review myself. I just would hate to see anyone else waste limited vacation time dealing with a rude, negligent and intrusive homeowner and his misrepresented property.

Great family spot
WE had a wonderful time especially the grandkid. the hose is a very short walk to its own dock which actually worked out very good as it gave a boundary for the kids to keep away from the waters edge. The property and communications with the owner was perfect

perfect ski getaway for our big family
smiling dog could not have been a better set up for our big family - the kids loved the bunk room, and we really enjoyed the fireplace and cozy living room. The kitchen was well equipped too. The owner and property manager were quick to respond to our questions & concerns, and we would definitely return for another stay.

Summer at its best
Having briefly visited the area before, I knew that we would want to return. Everything was better than expected. This farmhouse has been restored beautifully, and it is simply, comfortably restored in a stylish manner. The dock, hammocks, swimming float are spectacular, and there were more aqua toys than we could ever think of using. Lake Garfield is a rare gem, and the area is full of things to do...and don't get me started on all of the fresh food options from bakeries, farm stands to the local goat farm's fresh cheese. While we were all adults, this is a great house for kids (we couldn't use the bunk room) Yes, the house doesn't sit right on the lake, but it has enough grounds tp give it a certain amount of privacy. The 3 minute walk to the private dock is easy. The owners have thought of so much, were so kind and ready to solve any issue that might arise. ( we only had one, a randomly beeping alarm, that had an easy fix.) We are very grateful that they have chosen to share their home with others. We hope to return.

This property was very clean and comfortable. The owners were great and very responsive.
The array of boats and the cleanliness of the water were highlights! The owners made everything so easy and available. The toys in the barn were fabulous for our little ones and they loved the bedroom with the bunkbeds, toys and books. We all enjoyed our stay very much!
