Cottages in October Mountain State Forest

'Cozy, serene and bucolic waterfront hideaway within driving distance of Tanglewood, Shakespeare & Company, Jacob's Pillow and all the wonderful food and cultural Berkshire gems! Julie and Russ were amazing hosts. Great communication and wonderful restaurant and museum suggestions. Definitely planning another long weekend retreat!'

'Had a great time. If you love to get away from the cities and relax this is it. Bring what you need as theres no stores close.'

'Beautiful and clean cabin with stunning lake views. Short drive to the Great Barrington which we loved. Also the Les Trois Emme winery which was only minutes away - the wine slushie is a must! Loved everything about our accommodations and our trip to the Berkshires. '

'Our 3rd stay at the Clearing and we enjoyed it as much as our first visit..No doubt, a gem in the woods that has the solitude and peacefulness that keeps us coming back..A wonderful property, with owners to march. We will be back again for sure'

'The schoolhouse was adorable. Very comfortable and clean. Decorated with so many interesting books and antiques. '

'Lovely location. Quiet getaway. '

'We stayed with family and friends and loved all of the offerings from the dock, fire pit and quiet neighborhood.'

'From beginning to end, could not have dreamed of a better island getaway, in the Berkshire’s none-the -less. Bill was a wonderful host. Very friendly, responsive and helpful. Super welcoming. The home was simple, quaint, and super cozy. Perfect for a nice long relaxing weekend for both the dogs and people. The views from the sun room were lovely. The deck/patio area had a beautiful view of the water. The fire pit was a nice perk in the evening. Surrounded by water, the place felt so private....
