A great house!
We gathered with family and had a wonderful time at Joni's house. She's a great host, responsive and helpful. The house is very comfortable and truly had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend. The lake is beautiful. We went swimming and kayaking, enjoyed the grill and fire pit, and hung out on the screened-in porch. It was everything we were hoping for, and we would love to return!

Clean house by nice lake!
Everything about this was easy and convenient, from communication with Joni to its sweet location just steps from a lake. My family of four were plenty comfortable with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay again!

It is like you are camping but in a house. It is so spacious that my parents came this year with the kids and my husband. It is a 20 sec walk to the lake. This year we took advantage of the kayaks. My 9 yr son loved it!

Relaxing
My husband and I stayed with our adult daughters and their spouses and there was plenty of room. It's a very comfortable home with 4 bedrooms. It is right across the street from a very pretty lake with a small beach which we were lucky enough to have to ourselves. There were also kayaks for our use which we used several times. The house is also just about 15 minutes away from a beautiful waterfall you can see with a very quick hike.

We stayed here for a birthday weekend. The house is a wonderful space for the four of us, with plenty of room for more. The location was excellent; we were close to the Appalachian Trail and some of us did a long hike while others enjoyed a movie in Dalton. A lovely space!

Comfortable house and beautiful lake access
The house was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It's across the street from a lovely lake with a small private beach, dock, and kayaks. Hinsdale is a nicely central location in the Berkshires. We wanted a quiet getaway combining nature, scenery, culture and history. This was perfect.

Comfortable for family vacation
Well situated spotless house, laid out just right for senior parent/adult children vacation. Big living room and open to the well equipped kitchen, so some could relax and others prepare the meals. August is superb timing for delicious fresh farmstand food from local farmers. The house is one house away from the lake and we used the 4 kayaks twice. Lake is smooth and not much wake, motorboats out or noise. 2 of us swam across the lake. The rail trail and roads are great for biking, with the senior citizen renting an electric bike. We exercised well and ate well and enjoyed each other's company.

Cordial and Comfortable Cottage
GREAT COTTAGE! This is our second year renting this cottage at Lake Ashmere. The beach for the “off shore” cottages is a 1 minute walk. You can swim, kayak and savor the sun. The cottage itself is a lovely oasis for reading and resting. The air conditioning is a big bonus on hot summer days and the washer/dryer allows you to pack lightly for your vacation. The cottage was equipped with some fun items, such as a 1000 piece puzzle that worked very well to distract us on a rainy day. The kitchen is also well stocked and has basic spices so you can easily cook. Although the cottage borders 143, we never noticed any noise. We plan to come back next year!

Great Place for Families
The layout of this house is ideal for multi-generational family gatherings. We found everything we needed at the house. The lake is beautiful, particularly in winter when few people are around. The only issue we had was with the minimal heating system, which was quickly rectified through supplemental space heaters. Joni is a very gracious host!

Shelter through the storm
We rented this cozy cottage for a XC ski weekend, and a major snow storm blew in for one of the days. This didn't damper our spirits, though. We played games, made hot cocoa, and explored the frozen lake right across the street (and were able to make it up to Notchview for some tremendous XC skiing the following day).
