Wonderful place for an easy hike. They have a variety of habitats that attract many different species of birds. Quite flat trails, all well marked. Best spot for birding is what they call the crossover trail that goes over marshy terrain with an abundance of brush. Spotted 8 different birds just on that 100 meter trail alone. Highlight of my hike was a fantastic pic of a Goldfinch. I will be returning.

When you want something beyond ordinary . . . An eclectic mix of some things you need, some things you don't need but just want and many things to make your home and life more pleasant. Doing dual duty as an outlet store for Museum Facsimiles, Pittsfield USA manufacturer supplying boutique stores, and an outlet for the cool things we find.

I have a pontoon on this lake as well, best lake in the Berkshires. Great views not to crowded with boats. Bald eagle nest always there - saw the two kids fly last week. Mountain View’s (Greylock included) and a great sand bar to hang out on. Public beach and restrooms available also playground for the kids. This lake is great for paddle boarding and kayaking too. Worth the visit !!!

My buddy and I stopped in on the way back from Bennington VT Home Brewer fest (another story, but if you like beer you need to go). We overnighted in Bennington, then used a beer app to find this place. Looks like someone's cellar that they had not worked on for a couple years-cluttered but clean. I should have known I would love the place. Chris the owner was talkative, interesting, a great host! Beers were serious and great tasting. Had a real British feel, which made sense since the owner was British. It was a great change of pace from some of the breweries I have visited lately that are increasingly yuppy-ish. It felt like a combination dive bar/brewery...and I miss dive bars. Probably not fair to call it divey because that makes some feel unsafe but that's the best I could come up with. Give it a try and come up with your own description but I'll be back with my wife for sure. Great people great beer!
