Just down the road from Garden Gables, Bousquet Mountain has been a Berkshires fixture since 1932 and feels newly alive after a recent top-to-bottom revitalization. In winter, it’s the closest place to ski, snowboard, or tube without making the long drive to Vermont — a small mountain with a real vertical, night skiing under the lights, and an unfussy welcome for first-timers. Come warmer months, the lifts keep moving for hiking, mountain biking, and the year-round Cosmic Coaster. The lodge stays open year-round for dinner and drinks. An easy afternoon, whatever the season.
