Perched on the side of a gorgeous, sprawling lake—you can rent a kayak or go cold-plunging in the morning if you dare—Prospect Berkshires pairs cozy cabins with a tennis court, a pool, and private waterfront saunas. The s’more on top? Its on-site restaurant, the Cliff House, whips up a delicious countrified menu.

Hotels Own Introduction
A Lakeside Retreat at the Crossroads of New England
Set where Massachusetts, New York, and Connecticut converge, Prospect Berkshires offers a contemporary escape shaped by nature and ease. Surrounded by the quiet beauty of Berkshires, it blends wilderness with a relaxed, design-forward sensibility.
Cabins Immersed in Nature
Forty-nine lakeside cabins rest on storied grounds beside a tranquil lake. Crafted from wood, stone, and glass, each space opens seamlessly to the outdoors through expansive sliding doors, framing forest and water in equal measure.
Effortless Comfort, Thoughtfully Designed
Interiors are minimal yet inviting, featuring king beds, writing desks, and full bathrooms with rainfall showers and organic amenities. Soft layers of organic cotton linens, hypoallergenic down, and heritage wool blankets create a sense of warmth, while curated in-room details—from specialty teas to locally roasted coffee—enhance the experience.
A Culinary Viewpoint
At Cliff House, seasonal menus celebrate locally sourced ingredients, served against a backdrop of sweeping mountain views. Dining here feels both grounded and elevated, reflecting the spirit of the region.
Moments That Become Occasions
Life at Prospect unfolds through a dynamic seasonal calendar—chef residencies, tasting dinners, lakeside yoga, art exhibitions, and full-moon hikes. For families, curated workshops and outdoor activities bring a sense of discovery for all ages.
Leisure by the Water
Days move effortlessly between tennis courts, a lakeside sauna, and a seasonal pool, all set within steps of the shoreline. Whether active or at rest, each moment is framed by the calm rhythm of the lake.
A Modern Berkshires Escape
Prospect Berkshires offers a refined yet unpretentious retreat—where simplicity, design, and nature come together to create a stay that feels both restorative and quietly inspiring.
