Forget-Me-Not by AvantStay | Bold Lakefront Escape | House in Monterey
4 Bedroom House in Monterey
★ Recognized as one of our best. This home was a finalist in the 2025 AvantStay Awards, our annual celebration of top-tier stays.
Bold, modern design perched right above the shores of Lake Garfield. Forget-Me-Not is a vast, three-story Berkshires retreat with unobstructed lake views, a lofted, industrial-chic design, and plenty of ways to keep your group comfortable and entertained. The home's moody exterior gives way to a bright, open common area where you'll find huge windows for tons of natural light, a spacious kitchen, and vaulted ceilings over the main living room. A cozy sunroom leads to Forget-Me-Not’s large deck, which features a BBQ grill and outdoor dining table for al fresco meals overlooking the water. Soak in the hot tub, or head inside for a round of ping pong, cornhole, or heat up in the custom-built sauna. The lower floor features a second living room complete with a kitchenette and pool table, so your group will have plenty of room to spread out. With tons of privacy and unbeatable proximity to the shoreline, this contemporary lake retreat is ready to show you the best of the Berkshires.
