Cozy glow from the fire place by the bar
I really like it here!
Cozy, private, quality family time
No cars allowed on the property, so they escort you in these golf carts. Fun and keeps the peace
Space to prep tea, the heated floors are such a bonus
Lobby design is a clean simple space that also houses the boutique
Planning the next adventure while listening to the radio
Very cozy, great sheets and fab robe that I wish I'd bought to bring home
The warm and welcoming Prospect restaurant
The cozy fireplace
Prospect restaurant feels like a homely extension of our cabin
The cleared off part of the frozen lake for ice skating…
Such efficient design, where the window seat folds down into a very comfortable bed
Making the most of the amenities
The camp! Cabins nestled amongst giants
Moments of fun all around...for kids and adults!

Fantastic, impeccably clean amenities. Multiple sauna’s, cold plunges, a heated outdoor pool all year round, yoga and local fresh seasonal menu. Not to mention so many activities on property, such as tennis, fishing and boating on the lake. It was frozen over so we ice skated instead. Hiking and skiing close by too. (pool, gym, spa, bikes, hikes, retreats…)

Tucked away, this is a hidden well appointed gem in the beautiful Berkshires. Set on a quiet private lake which is meant to be taken advantage of, yet close to a fun historical town of Great Barrington, and surrounded by ski mountains and art centers.
