Beautiful N. Adams-Williamstown Lake House-With Sat.-Sat. Stays in July & Aug

Windsor Cottage is a relaxing, lakeside retreat located on Windsor Lake in North Adams, MA where you can enjoy your own private waterfront! You will feel like you are in the middle of the forest, yet you are in walking distance to the town, Mass MoCA and Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts as well as many bars and restaurants. In addition, it is a 10 minute drive to Williamstown, Williams College and the Clark Art Museum. Wander through ancient forests on a hike up the tallest mountain in Massachusetts, Mt. Greylock. Visit several nearby treetop adventure parks or go white water rafting on the Deerfield River. The 24 acre lake offers non-motorized boating, swimming and spectacular fishing. A row boat, a canoe, 2 kayaks and 2 paddle boards are available for you to explore the lake and take in the views of the Hoosac and Appalachian Mountain ranges, including Mt. Greylock. On Wednesday evenings in the summer you can sit on your deck and enjoy concerts that are held in the pavilion across the lake. There is a public swimming area, a snack bar and a playground across the lake as well. The home offers a large great room for relaxing and dining, a fireplace, a well equipped full kitchen for all of your cooking needs, one and a half baths, comfortable beds, a huge deck and a spectacular screened in porch where you can relax the night away or take a nap on a unique, twin sized porch swing. Spend a cozy evening cooking s’mores around our outdoor fireplace or cook dinner on our outdoor grill. You can entertain yourself and your family with a multitude of games and over 200 videos. Cable television is provide as well as wifi and three Roku televisions. Cell reception is excellent. New in 2022, we have an eco friendly mini-split air conditioning system and new for 2023 a stacked digital washer and dryer unit and a newly renovated spa like bathroom. Windsor Cottage is a great place to enjoy all of what the Berkshires and Southern Vermont has to offer as the only three bedroom lakeside rental property in the North Adams/Williamstown area. July and August stays are Sat. - Sat. Note: Two ring doorbells with security cameras are in use on the exterior of the property. One at the entrance to the house and one on the shed.

A Little Taste of Paradise
This was the best time away from home we ever had. The cottage and the lake are so peaceful and beautiful. The hosts were kind and helpful thru the hole planning stage. We hope to visit again next year....and one special thing we will never forget is the wonderful quiet...

Berkshires Delight
We had a wonderful stay! The home is spotless, well-maintained and nicely decorated. It is beautifully situated on a small lake overlooking the mountains. We kayaked through the mist every morning until it burned off. It was extremely hot and muggy, so we toured several wonderful museums in the afternoon and then returned and went for a swim. We definitely appreciated the air conditioning in the home! We dined in restaurants in town, only 5 minutes away, as well as in neighboring towns in Massachusetts and Vermont. (The Vermont border is just 7 minutes away.) We enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings. One evening we listened to a free concert from across the lake; another evening we watched a mesmerizing lightning storm from the screened porch. The owner was extremely responsive and gracious. Sheets and towels are not included, but you can rent them for a fee from the owner, which is what we chose to do.

Relaxing Getaway
We enjoyed a very relaxing getaway as a group of 3 generations. There was so much room for all of us and everything you could want or need: kitchen fully equipped, laundry, A/C and fans, games, movies, fishing right off the dock, kayaks, canoe, rowboat and life vests. Beautiful setting with park right across the lake. Screened in porch with large porch swing is heavenly! Owner is very responsive and wonderful to deal with. We really enjoyed Hancock Shaker Village, Mass MoCa, Berkshire Cider Project, and Mt. Greylock, among many other things close by.

Mini lake stay
The property sits on a very narrow small mini lake well stocked with fish. It is perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing. The house had everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Lots of people enjoying the lake
The home was well equipped and included boats and a well stocked kitchen. The park across the lake was noisy and lots of people were boating and fishing on a relatively small lake.
