Accommodation

We have two types of accommodation: lodges and cabins. Before reading about them, it is important to consider what you are hoping to get out of your stay here.

The majority of our groups come to the Berkshire Outdoor Center to get away from it all. They want a place without the distraction of daily living - without television, without homework, without school (!), without electronics. They want a place where they can focus on each other, built camaraderie and be away-from-it-all.

With that in mind, there's a choice to make - cabins or lodges. Cabins are rustic, lodges are winterized. The majority of our guests choose cabins - but learn more about the lodges and cabins first!
