Lovely setting for a family get-together
Million dollar view, outdoor spaces, and large comfortable home. Highly recommend. Quirky things worth noting - none of which lowered our 5 star ratings. Not supplied - spices, condiments, oils etc for cooking. Laundry soap. Bath soap. Room air conditioning units are excellent, but master suite has no window to the outside otherwise. Hosts were available and welcoming.

Nice place to spend a week in the Berkshires
We had a wonderful week with our family (6 adults, a 4-year-old, and a 2-year-old). The good: 1) The view with lots of places you could just sit and read or talk and enjoy it. 2) The friendliness of the host. Leny met us with a smile when we arrived and showed us around. After that, to be honest, we had little need to contact the host as everything was as expected and worked well. 3) How well stocked it was...everything we could possibly want was provided. We especially appreciated the enormous supply of plush towels. 4) It was spotlessly clean and pretty much everything was in good working order. 5) The layout. With the exception of the master bedroom, the other bedrooms are away from the living space. The main living area made great use of the view and was fun to hang out in (though, of course, we spent most of our time outside). 6) The location. You felt like you were in the woods, but we were close enough to town to make a run for coffee and donuts when you felt like it. 7) Did I mention the view? The not-quite-so-good: 1) The grill worked but probably needs to be replaced after the season. 2) Figuring out the light switches. Some are in strange spots (kitchen behind the fridge, master bedroom has two switches not wired correctly so you have to make sure to switch both on, etc.) 3) The bathrooms are tiny and dated. We did expect based on the price for them to be more modern, especially as there was no good place for toiletries, etc. in some of them. The kitchen is dated too, though that really did not make much of a difference... functions just fine. 4) If you are a biker, you need to be very careful on the road to the house. Loose gravel and up and down was fine by car but a bit slippery by bike. 5) Not so obvious from the pictures, the house is set quite high up above the lake so there is a several-story staircase. Mostly an issue if you have little kids or fewer mobile adults. In practice, it was not an issue and it contributed to the outstanding view. The bad: 1) Really nothing...we might very well go back next season.

Lake Buel New Marlborough
We had a wonderful time, the Property and Lake are beautiful, and the house and boat house were extremely well equipped. However, the property was listed as handicapped accessible and while we managed, there were a few drawbacks to accessibility for the wheel chair bound member of our family. The most important one is the bed in the master BD is exceptionally high and needs to be much lower for handicapped guests. A person in a wheelchair generally cannot transfer to a high mattress. The "accessible" shower in the first floor bathroom is not a roll in shower and grab bars are too far away to be able to transfer to the shower chair independently. In the master bedroom bathroom, a third grab bar needs to be added on the left wall when facing the toilet, The furniture in the living room and master bedroom is very big making it difficult to maneuver a wheel chair. We had to push several pieces of furniture out of the way to have better access.

Fabulous! Lovely & very comfortable home on gorgeous Lake Buel
3 generations gathered to celebrate an 85th Birthday, and we were all wowed. The home was lovely, very clean, and comfortably set up for evening gatherings over long dinners and post dinner jigsaw puzzles. The kitchen was very well equipped (2 sinks, 2 ovens) and we appreciated the grill. The lake was fabulous -- easy steps from the dock, no algae, few water weeds nearby. We loved swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and just reading on the dock! The middle landings with benches about half-way down were great hang-outs, too. The lower part of the steps were steep, so too much for our elder, but the 9 yr old scampered up and down. The setting was bucolic, however we also had a great time visiting nearby towns and enjoying fabulous concerts. Our hosts were very responsive to any questions and made us feel welcome from the start to end. Thank you, Leny and Victor, for a truly memorable stay!

Lake Buel family vacay
The location of the house is wonderful because of the view of the lake and being near good shopping and world-class cultural centers. Accommodations were good for our 12 family members. Very relaxing. We love the area!

Peaceful and magical for family gatherings
Wonderful setting for active families of different ages. Home is comfortable and our group of 7 adults and 3 young children shared a great week together making delicious meals in the well equipped kitchen, exploring the Great Barrington/ Stockbridge area, a performance at Jacob’s Pillow, family music concerts in the lawn in Great Barrington, hours of swimming, paddle boarding (bring your own), kayaking, and canoeing. Only reason for 4 stars given in “as advertised” section is that we thought the kitchen would have spices/herbs available, since website advertises “fully stocked pantry”. For guests - bring your own spices and condiments. For owners - clarifying this on the website will be helpful. Thank you very much, Leny and Victor!!
