“A 'Jack of All Trades' Venue”
Part restaurant, part bar, part music venue and all theater, the Dream Away features locally grown and sourced food, an imaginative and affordable menu in its own inimitable style, and a wide range of music, art, theater, cabaret and spoken word events. The Dream Away Lodge has been a Berkshire legend for more than 90 years. Rumored to have been a brothel and speakeasy during the great depression, this two hundred year old farmhouse at the edge of October Mountain State Forest is renown for its larger than life founders, Mamma Maria Frasca and her three musical daughters. It, also, has a colorful history, rich in music and local mythology. The 1975 visitation by Arlo Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Allen Ginsberg and the Rolling Thunder Review, led to the Dream Away's prominent role in Part Two of Dylan's epic film Renaldo and Clara - enhancing an already unmatched reputation as one of Berkshire County's best loved and most closely held hilltown secrets.
I've lived in the Berkshires for 16 years, and the Dream Away Lodge is by far my favorite place to eat and listen to music. Legends have played there and the small audiences that go there today are always a great mix of locals and tourists alike. With a quirky bar and delicious food, Dream Away is a destination you can plan to be at for many hours. The nights tend to end with great conversations and music shared with strangers around a campfire. One of a kind experience.
