who we are

The Charles River runs just behind our shop in Waltham, MA, right outside Boston. Our business was born in 2018, starting small but growing quickly. Since then, our team has grown and moved into a full-scale production facility, adding unique coffee tables, rustic board game tables and new and exciting projects both large and small.

We're excited you're here. Drop us a line at the bottom of this page if we can help you find anything.

about us

I grew up tinkering, building, and creating from a young age. I've never stopped. As my wife and I grow our family, it's become even more clear that play and creativity are so, so crucial to growth, and I don't think that changes as we age. Charles River Woodworks is my playground. It allows me to harness and focus that creativity every single day - to keep growing, and in so doing to bring some of that joy into the homes of others with our products.

Such a beautiful and well-made table. Easy to put together and plenty of room for us to put together a grown up puzzle and a kids puzzle at the same time. The care in the packing/shipping was impressive too.

Absolutely love this table. I’ve been working to open a coffee shop called The Write Cup. The decor will be filled with books, words and letters so this scrabble table will fit write-in! It was packed extremely well so there was no damage.

Love this table. The craftsmanship is top notch with attention to detail. My family is enjoying playing chess and I love that this table has a duel purpose as a fun end table in our game room.

This table is even so much better in person than in the pictures!!! Absolutely beautifully made, super functional, the sorting drawers just bring it to the next level! Super easy to put together just the four legs and Michael was so careful about packaging everything to make sure it arrived safe. The glass even shipped separately! Love my early Christmas present and can’t wait to use it in years to come!!

Michael was so easy to work with! I gave him a general idea of what I wanted and he made it come to life. Both tables are amazing! I’d highly recommend him and his work to anyone looking for something unique and fun!
