Bed and bath: 2 bedrooms, 1 bath
Why we love it: Private dock, firepit, desk overlooking the water
Plopped right on Wequaquet Lake, this charming Massachusetts cottage offers views of the water from nearly every room. There are two bedrooms (one with a queen-size bed and the other with a bunk bed), a fully stocked kitchen, an outdoor rainfall shower, and a private deck with comfy seats to enjoy the views. You’ll also find books, puzzles, and board games to kick back in the lounge area, plus kayaks and a canoe (life vests included) for outdoor adventures. Perhaps the best feature, though, is the little desk in the living room that faces the water, perfect for when inspiration strikes.
