About this property

Beautiful 8 Bedroom, Walk to Lake, Jetted Hot Tub, Fireplace, & Pool Table

Welcome.....we invite you to come enjoy the great space of our beautiful home with your family and friends in our unique 4000 sq. ft. custom built home with sleeping accommodations for up to 25. With 8 bedrooms, 2 full kitchens, 3 bathrooms and great outdoor space for relaxing and entertaining, we think it's the perfect gathering spot.
The house is nestled in the heart of the Berkshire Mountains and situated between 2 beautiful lakes that have incredible views. One lake (Onota) is just a short walk down the street where you can enjoy swimming, boating, fishing, picnicking and more. Feel free to bring your Kayaks, jet skis or boat and store them at our fenced in yard. The second lake (Pontoosuc) is just a short 3 minute drive. This lake also boasts beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and aside from boat and jet ski rentals, this area also has amenities such as on the lake restaurants with a view and golfing. Plenty of wineries and brew houses within minutes of the house.
The season changes are amazing in the Berkshire Mountains. The fall shows off the beautiful mountains in spectacular colors and all the charming country farms are bustling with hay rides, apple picking and pumpkin fests. Winter provides an abundance of snow and our house is located just minutes from some of the best ski resorts and just a walk away from ice fishing on the lake. Spring jumps alive with the new and upcoming season of summer events. The summer season provides so many different things to do you won't know where to begin. The Berkshire summer weather is almost always perfect for enjoying the many outdoor activities the area has to offer. Be sure to check out the video showing the beauty of the Berkshire area.
We are family friendly and cater strictly to mature adults and families only. We are happy to open up our home to those who wish to gather in a homey atmosphere for reunions, holiday gatherings, work retreats and social events, whether family or friends wishing to enjoy special occasions together, such as wedding parties, work retreats and friend getaways. However, it is not a "party house" or a place to host young adult parties and we do not rent to high school groups wishing to host graduation gatherings.

Family Ski Trip
We plan our annual family ski trip every January. We went to Jimney Peak. It was wonderful. The house was comfortable and close to the ski resort.

Great place
The house is clean, fully stock, lots of space for everyone as described. Hot tub is a big plus after a day of snowboarding. Thank you Margaret, we really enjoyed our stay.

Another great stay
This is our third year at the Lake House for our annual family holiday gathering. Our hostess Margaret was as informative and accommodating as ever and the property is well maintained, and exceptionally clean. We know that everything is well stocked and well organized. Our family is very comfortable at the Lake House and we look forward to coming back next year. P. Hamilton

Excellent Thanksgiving Family Reunion
This was the second time we have spent our 4-day Thanksgiving weekend at Margret’s house, having stayed there in 2021. (Another family reserved before us in 2022.) Of primary concern to us were the kitchens (yes, that’s plural), which were very well stocked with all the cooking equipment you could need. Having two stoves and two refrigerators was VERY helpful. The large main room we used for eating and gathering. A big hit was the pool table, and we also used the fire pit in the backyard. Last year we stayed at a place in Norwich CT that was twice the price and half as nice. Strongly recommend Margaret’s place.

About the host

Hosted by Margaret Grady

Host profile image
We have been married for ever! Have 4 children and 6 grandchildren. We grew up together and raised our children in Berkshire County. We have since moved to warm, sunny south Florida but still love to visit our friends and family that stayed behind. We are guests ourselves once a year in our Pittsfield house and it still feels like home every time!

Why they chose this property

This house has been in our family for generations with many updates along the years to bring it to it's current state of beauty. It has been customized by the owner himself and to our standard of living. We raised our children in the same neighborhood we grew up in and in the same house he grew up in. We love to share our home with others to enjoy big family gatherings and create memories just as we did with our family and extended family over many years.
