Nothing feels as much like fall as picking apples and viewing the colorful fall foliage in Massachusetts. But how would you like to make a weekend trip of it? Go apple picking, and spend the night in a cabin with colorful views on this weekend getaway in Massachusetts in the fall. You'll love your time away this fall in the Berkshires.
Start your fall weekend getaway at Jaeschke's Orchard on Gould Road in Adams. This family-owned farm has been a mainstay at the base of Mount Greylock since 1881.
The orchard is 55 acres and offers 33 varieties of apples including hybrid, standard, and heirloom. If you love Honeycrisp, Jonagold, Granny Smith, and Macoun, this is the place to come.
Due to the higher elevation at this orchard, there are certain apples that can only be grown here. You'll find the apples to be more flavorful than the average apple from elsewhere.
And what's more fun than picking apples right off the tree in the fall? It's part of what makes the season so special!
After a fun few hours of picking apples from Jaeschke Orchards, you will then head out on MA-2 East (the Mohawk Trail). This is a scenic drive that will bring you to your accommodations.
Rose and Goat Retreat in the town of Florida is approximately 12 miles away from the orchard. Surrounded by the Berkshires, you can expect some pretty fall colors during your stay.
There are several options for accommodations here at Rose and Goat Retreat. These include a cottage, a lodge, an apartment, and a log cabin. Pictured here is the Comsomore Cottage, a well-appointed cabin that's the perfect choice to spend the night come fall.
