Secluded Estate Optional Guest House, Pond, Playroom, Gym & Theater Sunny Pond by Avantstay

Located in Austerlitz, this welcoming cottage brings it all within your reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 20-minute drive to Tanglewood Music Center or the 11-minute drive to Queechy Lake (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, you can unwind on the balcony or sip a drink by the firepit. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

A BBQ grill, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a desk are featured at this 9-bedroom, 5-bathroom rental. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as an ice maker, a microwave, and cookware. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll also have a washer/dryer.
