Vacation rentals in Big Alum Pond

We were in the area to meet our son's fiance's extended family. Nathania's home was perfect! We had 7 adults and 5 little boys ages 9, 7, 5, 2, and 2 months. There was plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the time together. The hot tub, kayaks, and foosball table were especially popular! We were able to host a family dinner with guests which was wonderful. Everything we needed for preparation was readily available. Lots of beautiful parks, playgrounds, hiking areas. Plenty to keep everyone entertained! Nathania was extremely kind, gracious, and responsive to questions. We had absolutely zero issues. So grateful for a wonderful vacation. Thank you for sharing your idyllic home with us. We hope to visit again!!!

It was a pleasure staying here ! Everything is clean and the house is such a nice size !

I came here in the dead of winter for a writer's retreat with a fellow writer- AND I WOULD DO IT AGAIN! It was a beautiful and inspiring place to write. Perched on Andover Lake, it was too cold to frolic outside but that was actually liberating. There was a rocking chair-ottoman combo in the master bedroom looking out on the lake and watching it freeze while I worked on some writing was so peaceful and perfect. When I needed to switch it up, there was a writer's desk with the same view and I can not overstate how nice and productive it was to work from it. I am sure in the summer it's a really fun stay (there were kayaks and a dock for swimming) but I actually loved being isolated in such an idyllic place. It's near a few other homes but the road was low traffic enough for a cold weather run around half the lake. Marcie was super helpful with suggestions for places to eat. We didn't actually use the recs - but that only speaks to how nice the house was and how hard it was to leave!

Very cozy apartment in a great location between Pioneer Valley and the Berkshires.

This was a great place to get away from the city and enjoy a quiet Thanks Giving with family. The view was amazing with its amber and red autumn leaves. It could have been straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting with a moving train in the distance. I can only imagine how this beautiful view changes with every season. We would have loved to use the spacious deck in the back but the brisk weather did not permit. Our host was available when needed with great suggestions of local restaurants for vegans as well as meat and seafood lovers. The cook in the family found every pot and pan needed for creating a wonderful Seaside Thanks Giving Dinner. There were easily accessible shopping and grocery stores in the area. This comfortable hideaway is only minutes from the airport for anyone who would like to fly in for a weekend retreat. rest assured we will be back.

Great older lake house vibe. We liked it very much. It worked great for our family of five.

Place worked out perfect

Great spot - close to the little downtown area with a few restaurants and bars. Lots of room and Ginny was very responsive and clear in her communications. Would definitely stay here again.
