Pine View Cottage, Berkshires Getaway Lake Buel w/ lake rights. Pet friendly!

Recently renovated home in the exclusive Lake Buel community very close to the Appalachian Trail, Butternut Ski Area, Downtown Great Barrington, Tanglewood, Kripalu, The Norman Rockwell museum and so many more Berkshires attractions. Our rural retreat is well equipped with modern comforts including a well-stocked kitchen, radiant heat floors in the basement, WiFi, central heat & A/C and smart tvs. Enjoy our lake rights at the community dock a short walk away: swimming, kayaking & fishing await you!
The space
You'll love our comfortable home as it has plenty of space to spread out with cozy bedrooms with comfortable beds (upstairs bedrooms have Queen beds, downstairs has a King bed). 2/3 bedrooms have a smart t.v.s with remote control, sufficient lighting and nearby bathrooms. Both upstairs bedrooms have ceiling fans. There are two separate interior areas to sit and relax. There is a dedicated dining space off of the kitchen with additional bar seating, and numerous outdoor seating areas including a spacious deck with table and chairs. Our kitchen appliances include a full sized refrigerator, electric oven, dish washer and two coffee makers (one traditional drip in the kitchen and one Keurig in the basement bedroom). Our fireplace is equipped with a heat propelling propane insert and will operate at the flip of a switch!
Guest access
You'll have access to the entire home except for the utility room. The shed in our yard is yours to use to store bikes/gear or additional items you bring with you during your stay. We have a propane BBQ for your use on the front porch as well as plenty of outdoor seating.
Other things to note
Enjoy Lake Buel living in this peaceful enclave where your hardest choice each day might be to kayak or hike the nearby Appalachian Trail. For recommendations on what to do, where to eat, etc please be sure to view our personalized Pine View Cottage Guide which will be sent to you when you book!

We are a rural destination which will require some planning before you arrive. It's a good idea to make a stop at the grocery store for essentials before you arrive (the nearest one is Price Chopper at 300 Stockbridge Road in Great Barrington).

Our water is well, so it's great for drinking straight out of the tap!

Unfortunately there are no food delivery services in our area at this time.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area.

The cabin was well stocked and cared for. We loved relaxing in front of the fireplace and walking through the wooded neighborhood. Close enough to Great Barrington to make visit it not a chore and far enough to get away from everything! We will be coming back in the future.

We had a wonderfully cozy stay at Pine View! Perfect spot to relax and play board games with friends for the long weekend. The house was very clean and the kitchen reasonably well-equipped to prepare the few meals that we didn't venture out for. Ayren was quick to respond whenever we reached out with a question. We enjoyed our time at Pine View Cottage.

Long Weekend

The cottage was adorable and spotless. Minutes to Great Barrington and Butternut and close to other Berkshire ski resorts. My family of 5 was so cozy and had plenty of space. The basement bedroom does get cold, especially the floor so bring your slippers!

Lovely cottage, excellent stay

This is a lovely cottage, nicely decorated, great comfy furniture, nice deck, nice enclosed porch, well appointed kitchen, everything we needed, kitchen table for gathering, living room is super cozy with a beautiful gas fireplace that is easy to operate. 2 queen beds on first floor and king bed on lower floor were all super comfy (and I’m picky) and the linens were really nice and comfy, rarely do I ever say I had a good night’s sleep at a rental but this was one of those times for sure! King primary suite on lower floor was a nice surprise, very well appointed. Excellent host. Easy code access. Will be back in the future for sure. Highly recommended! Thanks Ayren!

Wedding weekend

We enjoyed the property a lot. It is in a beautiful setting and we enjoyed walks through the neighborhood. Directions were excellent. Did not realize the winding staircase was the only one. A few things that were not in plain sight were a bathmat, instructions for the HVAC and TV. There is limited space for clothes (no closet in one of the bedrooms) but we managed. Overall, a lovely home with a warm, cozy vibe. Thank you!

Stayed with family for a wedding nearby and had a great experience. Nice house, clean and comfortable and as advertised. Very comfortable bed. Remote location so it’s quiet and peaceful, and short walk to lake. Host was very helpful and quick to respond. Would stay again!

Great Getaway!

We had a lovely two weeks at the Pfeifer cottage. Everything was as promised. The location was quiet, but easy access to Great Barrington and Tanglewood. Two of our grandkids visited and they were in love with the spiral staircase! We way come back again someday.

Cottage was fine, hosts not great

The cottage was fine- it's about as good as you'll find in this area. Rating down on cleanliness since there were ants in the house when we arrived and pet hair on the furniture. The location is nice, close to lake. However, communication with the hosts was not great. 1) Check in was at 4 PM. We arrived at 4:30 PM, and the code they gave us to the house didn't work. I called the host and there was no answer. They did call us back and gave us a different code to get into the house. 2) We admittedly only listed 2 adults on the reservation and forgot to add our 2 kids to the reservation. However, we let the host know early in our stay that we had our kids with us, and they didn't raise any issues at that time. The listing allows up to 6 people (we only had 4), and kids are allowed, so we didn't think it was a problem. However at the end of the stay, they sent us a bill for 3x (yes, three times!) the original cleaning fee that we had already paid when we booked the cottage, saying that it was because we didn't add our kids to the reservation. The cleaning fee doesn't appear to change based on the number of people you have on the reservation, so I'm unclear on this reasoning. They also complained that we hadn't stripped sheets off the 2 beds we used, or started a load of laundry before we left. These instructions were on page 5 of an attachment in an email they had sent us nearly 1 month prior. We hadn't received any reminders and there was no printed copy at the cottage.
