Looking to Plan a Family Reunion That Has It All? The Lake House Guest Cottages of the Berkshires Has You Covered

Lanesboro, Massachusetts, March 31, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Anyone who has spent time organizing a family reunion knows just how hard it can be to find a desirable, yet affordable location that can accommodate the entire family. Locating a venue that checks off the most important considerations on your list isn’t easy. If it is too far away, it discourages your relatives from coming, but it still has to be far enough to make the event feel like a getaway. Choosing a location with lots of fun activities to keep the kids occupied is a must, but you still need to maintain a relaxing atmosphere for the adults. Having enough outdoor space in a private setting for everyone to enjoy is key, but offering plenty of indoor space for those who want to get out of the heat or spend the night is also crucial. Does such a place exist, you may wonder? It just so happens it does, and those in the New York and New England regions are in luck.

The Lake House Guest Cottages of the Berkshires seeks to provide everything on the prospective party planner’s list, without any of the compromises. 

"Last week my family held our family reunion at the Berkshire Lake House. From the moment we arrived, until we checked out, our expectations were exceeded over and over. My family and I shared some pretty spectacular memories on the lake in the provided kayaks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are so grateful for the incredibly kind and helpful owner and caretaker. We look forward to the next time we can unplug and unwind at the beautiful gem, the Berkshire Lake House."

Lake House Guest

It’s Convenient. The Berkshires are located in Western Massachusetts, a short three hour drive from Boston or New York City. And there is no need to haul your decorations and supplies with you. Once you arrive, you’ll still only be minutes away from a number of large grocery stores and upscale discount retailers.

It’s Private and Spacious. The Lake House features a large green space, perfect for your closest 150 family members or friends, along with a large deck, plenty of outdoor barbecues and fire pits, a screened patio, stone walkways, a boat house and dock. The four Guest Cottages provide more than 10,000 square feet of pristinely appointed living space, and can accommodate 30 overnight guests.

It’s Beautiful. The Berkshires of Western Massachusetts are famed for their picturesque natural beauty. In many ways, little has changed since the first towns appeared in the area more than 200 years ago. The region remains a perfectly preserved image of rural New England.

It Has Something for Everyone. The active sort can spend the weekend swimming, boating or fishing on the lake, or playing games on the communal green space. Those who like to lounge can sprawl out on the stone patio, on one of the beautiful sofas overlooking the lake or in one of the dozens of lawn chairs placed throughout the property. Foodies can huddle around the spacious gourmet kitchen, sipping wine and enjoying hors d’oeuvres, or man the outdoor grills.   

It’s Close to Attractions. Looking for adventure? Ramblewild, the Northeast’s premier aerial tree-to-tree adventure park is only minutes away. Like to shop? The Berkshires features a wide range of stores, including a number of antique and vintage; malls and outlets; and speciality retailers. Enjoy the arts? Visit one of the many museums, historic sites, formal gardens or performing and visual arts centers.

The Amenities are Truly High-End. The Guest Cottages, a collection of four upscale, private homes built in 2015, offer some of the most luxurious and modern amenities found in the Berkshires. Each home features a contemporary open floor plan, fully equipped kitchens with granite countertops, gas fireplaces, warm wooden interiors, plush king-sized beds and astounding views of Pontoosuc Lake, framed by the picturesque Berkshire Mountains.

Did We Mention There’s a Lake? Pontoosuc is one of the largest lakes in Western Massachusetts. The Lake House includes a private boat slip, where you can dock your own boat or a rental, and provides watercraft, including kayaks and canoes, to all guests free of charge.

It Comes Highly Recommended. One reviewer wrote: “Last week my family held our family reunion at the Berkshire Lake House. We were so excited to arrive after viewing the incredible photos of the property online and the ease of booking our stay online. From the moment we arrived, until we checked out, our expectations were exceeded over and over. The caretaker on location was incredibly helpful, even setting up a fire pit with assembled firewood for our last night's s'mores roast. The house and grounds were breathtaking. Every amenity we could have asked for was provided. Five star bedrooms, beautiful bathrooms and my favorite­, the gourmet kitchen that provided all the necessary tools for meals. My family and I shared some pretty spectacular memories on the lake in the provided kayaks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are so grateful for the incredibly kind and helpful owner and caretaker. We look forward to the next time we can unplug and unwind at the beautiful gem, the Berkshire Lake House.”
