The Summer is spectacular in the Berkshires with lots to do ( It’s a culture fest). The Winter not so much, apart from some local skiing, and beautiful nature walks. A lot closes in the Winter esp restaurants and even some local stores.
Kids should definitely visit any college if they can. This isn’t always possible. I honestly love Williams and my oldest liked it a lot. But I think you have to be careful saying there’s lot to do. There’s isn’t a lot from Nov-May. There is a lot to do on campus. It’s kind of a world within itself. Good for some, but for many it can be very isolating. We lived in the Berkshires for a couple of years and kept a house elsewhere as well. The winters are long, cold and beautiful. The sleepiness was conducive to writing or studying but hard for young people.
