Photos and Description of the Hinsdale vacation house rental
4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 8

The best place in the world to watch the sunset! Set up high on a hill and nestled amidst the pine trees, this four year old, private and spacious contemporary home overlooks Lake Ashmere (across the road) in Hindsdale. The great room with cathedral ceilings and a wall of windows overlooking the lake, is open to the dining and kitchen area. Master bedroom loft suite also has spectacular views. Front deck overlooking lake with hot tub. Beautiful cedar lined screen porch with comfortable outdoor furnishings. Professionally decorated with all new furnishings (including pillowtop mattresses). Perfect layout for one or 2 families vacationing together or an adult getaway. Feels secluded and private, yet only 10 minutes to Pittsfield (supermarket, mall, cinemas).

The Berkshires has something for everyone year round, but especially in the summer months.

Hinsdale retreat

Review Submitted: May 25, 2011 Date of Stay: May 2011
This was a wonderful retreat for my family. The weather was uncooperative with rain every day we were there. The accommodations made this week work - the views of the lake and the openness of the home made it more like a retreat. There was an ample supply of games and puzzles and access to some wonderful hikes that were still a wonderful experience in spite of the rain. We did have one day with patches of sun before and after the rain and were able to get out and explore the lake from the kayak. It was a wonderful and peaceful place to be, thank you.

GREAT SPACE for a Carefree Family Vacation

Review Submitted: August 6, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
We were a family of 5 adults and 4 kids ages 8-1/2 - 12-1/2. The home worked just perfectly for us for the entire week. There is a spacious feel throughout. Our pre-teen grandsons used the basement rooms for creating and rehearsing a music concert for us without disturbing the adults or the neighbors (hopefully!). They may have been audible to the whole neighborhood during the Friday night concert in the living room! Our granddaughters especially enjoyed the hot tub. All this left the adults plenty of time and space to relax both inside and out, as all seating was very comfy. The home is visually stunning, which added to our pleasure. The Hinsdale location turned out to be perfect in terms of being "midway" between outings to the Jiminy Peak area and down to the Normal Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, both recommended. Beds extremely comfortable all around. Dining was ideal, with our grandkids set up on one side of the big island counter, leaving the other side free for prep, and the big dining room table for the grownups to spread out .

To be specific about the water, there was plenty for all of us for all our ample water needs. The hot tub never caused any problem whatsoever, although in all cases we respected the "reasonable use" and hot-tub care requests made by the owners. Nobody was deprived of anything. The house really worked perfectly**, and we recommend it without reservation. **One of our grandkids caused a stoppage in the downstairs bathroom. We called the owners in CT, & a plumber arrived within 45 minutes and efficiently repaired the problem..

There were just two things that keep me from saying that on a scale of 1 to 10, this home is a 12: One was that, because we were arriving from the West Coast by plane, the owners agreed to provide towels for us, but the towel supply left was overloaded with bath towels and practically no hand towels or wash cloths. My husband and I had to share one hand towel and one washcloth, and we did not find a phone number to call the housekeeper. The other "ding" was that the "lakefront" that's available with the property is quite tiny (about 12' wide), with no comfortable place for an "oldie" to sit while the kids played in the water. However, it really WAS enough to launch both the "house" kayak, and a blow-up raft the driving part of the family brought along.

All in all, the house was really terrific.

Neighbor's Response

Review Submitted: May 11, 2010 Date of Stay: January 2010
I hate to be a nosey neighbor but I have to comment. My husband and I have a cottage down and across the street from this home and we were there NY Weekend. I would say by noise level, that these guests had a GREAT time! Let's just say that I'm not surprised the hot tub was clogged nor am I surprised they drove into a ditch.

I've never met the owners and only found this comment as I was inquiring about renting it myself for a large reunion I'm having this summer. We were in the house when it was on the market a few years ago and found it to be absolutely gorgeous and the owners seem to be caring for it beautifully. I've heard nothing but good things from the renters I've met.

Our's is a nice, quiet lake and a great place to vacation. I'm looking forward to renting the house if available.

Very Spacious House

Review Submitted: February 16, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2009
We rented this lovely house during the first two weeks of August 2009. The house is spacious, clean, well furnished, and - overall - very comfortable. It can easily accomodate 8 adults and 2 children. My wife and I took the loft bedroom, which was huge, while my two teen sons took the two rooms on the grounf floor. We used the basement to watch TV. We spent the afternoons in the screened room next to the kitchen and the evenings in the patio enjoying the lake, the stars and the BBQ.The location is lovely: surrounded by woods, overlooking a lake, and 10 minutes from downtown Pittsfield.
The owners were a sweet and cooperating couple. They responded to our little problems promptly, and even drove from Connecticut to check everything was alright. There was a little problem with the water supply at first but once the basement bathroom problem was understood, we had plenty of water for the entire 2-week stay.
The only thing missing in the house was wireless DSL and a blender in the kitchen. Otherwise, a perfect vacation house.

A special place

Review Submitted: January 26, 2010 Date of Stay: October 2009
We have use this lake house for 3 years, a week each fall
and a week in the winter. The house is, as the photos show, tasteful, comfortable and immaculate. Everything for one's personal comfort is
there, down comforters and pillows, a complete kitchen, lovely
furnishings and a view of the lake that is magnificent. We have so
many happy memories, kayaking, biking, watching the stars
at night while in the outside jacuzzi. It is a place with a
special beauty for each season and we are happy to have
found it.
