Words from happy guests

This is a truly charming and authentic lake house. Its not modern but cozy and inviting. The location and grounds with the terrace, the small beach and waterfront are amazing. The view over the lake is beautiful!

Nadja from Germany

Stay for 2 adults and 2 pets

A very lovingly decorated, spotless vacation home with great amenities and a stunning view of the gorgeous property overlooking the lake. Outside, there are plenty of different seating areas, two fire pits, and a constant view of the beautiful lake and the stunning surroundings. Every detail has been taken care of to make your stay not only pleasant but unforgettable.

Great location, neat and clean.

Kjell Adler from Norway

Stay for 1 adult

We absolutely loved this place. The gardens are beautifully scenic, and lake is perfect for families. Somehow the house feels just as cosy and special even when it’s raining. What really stands out, though, is how much the owners clearly care about the property. Everything just makes sense here, and you notice the thought that has gone into it in every little detail. It’s a genuinely lovely place to spend time, and one we’d very happily come back to.

Piotr from Cyprus

Stay for 3 adults and 3 children

This wonderful house is nestled in an incredibly beautiful setting. The fjord lies in front of the house, and the lake lies behind it.

Jördis from Germany

Stay for 4 adults and 1 pet

A truly cozy vacation home. Furnished with an eye for detail. We felt very comfortable and would book it again anytime. The view from the house is breathtaking. It’s incredibly peaceful up there by the lake. 😍 Communication with the host, Anne Berte, was also great. Just wonderful. 👌

Sammy from Germany

Stay for 3 adults, 1 child and 1 pet

The vacation home is small but charming... It's surrounded by nature and has everything you need for a relaxing vacation... From firewood to a pepper mill, everything is provided... The only minor criticism is the cleanliness—I'd deduct a point for that... But all in all, everything was still wonderful.

Daniel from Germany

Stay for 3 adults

A very comfortably furnished vacation home with a beautiful view of the mountains
