If I could give them 10 stars I would! My husband and I got married there August 2025 and it was an absolute blast! We had the camp from Friday through Monday for Labor Day weekend and a 200+ guest list on wedding day and these guys were absolutely prepared for everything! They were always a text away with whatever we needed! The camp is absolutely beautiful, clean, well kept. I seriously cannot say enough good things about Berkshire Lake Camp. We would live there if we could!

We recently celebrated our wedding weekend at Berkshire Lake Camp, and we cannot recommend it enough. Being originally from Mississippi and now living in Connecticut, we were in search of a venue that could bring together all of our loved ones in one place. Berkshire Lake Camp offered not only that but so much more. Surrounded by nature and community, our wedding reflected the intentional, outdoor celebration we had envisioned. From the very beginning, we had the pleasure of working with Anthony Rivera, whose dedication and professionalism exceeded every expectation. Anthony poured incredible care into every detail of our weekend. His calm presence, responsiveness, and genuine investment into our experience allowed us to be fully present with our family and friends. Our guests began arriving on Thursday, and we welcomed them with a lakeside barbecue followed by a movie night under the tent. Berkshire Lake Camp provided the projector, screen, and sound equipment, which turned watching The Princess Bride under the stars into an unforgettable memory. Friday was filled with relaxation and fun on the lake with paddle boarding, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and yard games. That evening we enjoyed a casual cookout before transitioning into our rehearsal dinner. The Berkshire Culinary Group prepared an outstanding New England lobster bake that included the best macaroni salad we have ever tasted. The food was exceptional and the heartfelt toasts made the evening truly special. Saturday brought both excitement and unexpected weather in the form of a tornado warning. While this could have created great stress, Anthony’s quick thinking and calm leadership ensured everything went smoothly. At the exact moment our ceremony was set to begin, the sun came out, the lake grew calm, and I had the privilege of marrying my best friend in the most beautiful setting surrounded by the people we love most. What made Berkshire Lake Camp extraordinary was not only its natural beauty but also the way it brought all of our guests together. People were able to reconnect with the joy of summer camp while creating new memories that we will cherish for years to come. Chase and I feel so grateful for the opportunity to host our wedding here, and we know it will always hold a special place in our hearts. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to the vendors who brought our weekend to life: - Paul Redeker for providing the tent, chairs, tables, pews, and griddle that added to the atmosphere. - Berkshire Culinary Group for the incredible rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour, reception meals, cutlery, dishes, and glasses. Every meal was extraordinary. - Christi Plankley for his professionalism, organization, beautiful lighting, and excellent music that kept the celebration alive. - Until We Wed Flower Co. for designing breathtaking florals that exceeded our expectations. - Nicole Villar for capturing timeless photographs that we will treasure forever. - Bridal Reflections for creating a wonderful getting-ready experience and providing hair and makeup that made everyone feel their best. - La Fiorentina Pastry Shop for crafting a wedding cake that was as beautiful as it was delicious. Our wedding weekend was everything we dreamed it would be and more. Berkshire Lake Camp, especially Anthony, gave us a celebration that we will cherish forever.

Such a peaceful experience. A beautiful place, getting to see all the land and little bits of nature from the flowers to the animals the seem to cross the way, to the sunsets and the lake. Berkshire Lake Camp is just such a beautiful yet spacious beauty to host all kinds of events from Weddings, Reunions, “Kids Camps”, and even beyond that. Your imagination and children would just run wild in a place such as this one.

BLC is truly a gem. We had a weekend long wedding celebration here a couple of weekends ago and it surpassed any expectations that we had. Getting to have so many of our closest people stay with us for the weekend was so special and unique. Not only did we have the best weekend of our lives here but all of our guests could not stop raving about how unique and wonderful the venue was. Brent and his team were accommodating, organized, and incredibly friendly. Would highly recommend Berkshire Lake Camp to anyone looking for a unique wedding or other camp experience.

We spent the weekend at Berkshire Lake Camp for a group retreat (~75 people) and it was incredible! Brett and the staff were so helpful and were present the entire time to make sure our event went off without the hitch. The new cabins are beautiful and they made it easy to fit our whole group on-site. The grounds and lake are beautiful and our group had so much fun between the water sports, beach, sports facilities, and campfire! We would definitely come back!!
