About this property

Tucked away at the base of Berkshire East Ski Mountain in Charlemont, Massachusetts you will find our family vacation home which we call the East Berkshire Chalet. Attached to the chalet is a lovely 2 bedroom apartment suite... the perfect cozy lodging for the perfect vacation getaway. This 2 bedroom suite, which can accommodate 6 max and is pet friendly features a full kitchen, full bath and deck for your enjoyment. Located in a secluded private lot just a stones throw away from the ski resort and scenic and historic Mohawk Trail, yet easily accessible to many activities and attractions, you can come and experience what all the beautiful Berkshire seasons have to offer. Enjoy winter skiing and boarding, snowmobiling, snow-shoeing, cross country skiing, summer rafting, zip line-rides, fishing, hiking, leaf-peeping , antiquing , sight-seeing and much more in and around this scenic region. We're also just a short drive to Mass MoCA, the largest center for contemporary arts in the United States, and many more cultural destinations!


Located on the base of Berkshire East Ski resort, enjoy the convenience of literally walking to the ski lift in the winter and zipline canopy tours or whitewater rafting and downhill mountain biking in the spring and summer.

Great Location for Berkshires East
Great spot for an extended weekend of snowboarding at berkshires east. Wasnt too cramped for our party of 6 and one dog. It has a full kitchen with all the utensils, pots, pans, and plates so all you need to do is bring your food and stock up that fridge. Its a short walk to the parking lot so its nice when you want to grab a bite to eat and take a break which is great for groups so everyone can just go do theyre own thing. Dave was awesome and i will definitely return again someday and do it all over again.

Great Place
Exactly as advertised. It was clean and cozy with enough space for my family of 5. Amenities allowed for making meals instead of having to eat out. It was an easy walk to the base lodge for adults. A bit too much for the young kids carrying ski equipment but you can’t get much closer than the location.

Location for Berkshire East = Perfect
The apartment is as advertised. It is petite but thoroughly functional. Will be even better in summer when decks can be used. Note: Bathroom is upstairs and stairs are a very real part of getting to the apartment. If you are doing anything at Berkshire East there is no better location. We would stay again.

Great location. Couldn’t be closer to the resort. Beds were very comfortable. We were in a different part of the condo than the listing. Everything was top notch.

Truly a Hidden Gem!
We loved our stay at the Hidden Gem! The location was amazing! We could walk right up to Berkshire East for a day of skiing with no stress! The property around the house was perfect for our family. There is a beautiful creek next to the house and lots of room for our dogs to run. The house is also equipped with a full kitchen so we could enjoy our coffee and breakfast before a day on the slopes. We are looking forward to staying here again for our summer and winter vacations!

Great space and location
The space was perfect for our family. We were able to be at the mountain early since the proximity to Berkshire East Mountain is so amazing. We would return after a day of skiing, and enjoy cooking at "home" since the kitchen had all the essentials. Plenty of blankets for cozy sleeping. Dave was a great host, and so easy to contact. We had an awesome stay!

Great weekend getaway! Beautiful foliage!
We stayed on a beautiful Autumn weekend to attend an event at Deerfield Academy. It was an easy drive, and very scenic. It was so nice to have a clean, pet friendly place to stay. Dave was easy to work with. We had breakfast one morning at a local place and stopped for fresh brewed fog buster coffee from the old fashioned general store.

Perfect spot for the area
We were doing some rafting and zip lines at Zoar Outdoor in Charlemont, MA. This is at the base of Berkshire East and is a great location for both Zoar and Berkshire East. Property was ready for us when we arrived and was just as expected. It is a large property that can be converted to different housing options. We had the two bedroom one bath option and someone else was staying next door. We occasionally heard them walking around but overall it was really quiet. We really liked the stream on the property and the nice patio for enjoying our morning coffee. Highly recommend this if you are doing activities around the Deerfield River.

Berkshires East
Very good stay in a great location. My husband could just walk back from the mountain, which was very convenient. Small place that could use some interior updates/small repairs, but very pretty and suited our needs. The driveway was plowed and the walkway was shoveled after a storm. The gentleman looking after the house was very accommodating. We would definitely stay again!

Charlemont Getaway
The apartment was clean and well organized. My husband and our 2 pets stayed there while we were having some work done on our home and it worked out very well! Dave was very pleasant and easily accessible. One thing to note is that the property is very close to the train tracks and the train whistle may disturb some light sleepers.

Dave could not have been more friendly and generous as a host. The location is great. You can walk to rafting, mountain coaster, riverside food truck, etc. Our only disappointments were the ants, which are everywhere, and the need to use bottled water. Dave supplied us with the first gallon, but it was an annoying inconvenience, nevertheless.

A nice cozy house in the beautiful area
Very clean, well maintained, and secluded house in the forest. We enjoyed staying there for a few days. All appliances work properly and are in the good condition. WiFi was not very stable, but our stay at the house coincided with a tropical storm Henri, which could be a case of this. Additionally, it should be noted that, despite the water level in the stream flowing near the house has risen sharply and we feared that the parking could be flooded, the private road to the house, the parking, as well as the house itself were not flooded, and nothing was damaged. So the house is really safe.
