Berkshire County, in particular, has a lot of charm. I find Mount Greylock and some of the county's waterfalls, like Wahconah Falls in Dalton, Peck's Falls, and Bellevue Falls (both in the town of Adams), and Bash Bish Falls in Mount Washington, to have a lot of charm. Not just charm but peace and serenity. I could hang out and watch those waterfalls all day.
