In the middle of the floodplains of the IJssel, near the old Hanseatic city of Kampen, lies this floating nature house. A houseboat with a unique location in the hole of Stoter: you are in the middle of nature, while within 10 minutes by bike you are in the heart of Kampen. The ark is easy to reach and there is parking in front of the door. You walk across an 80-meter-long jetty through the reeds to your own front door. With a little luck you will see a kingfisher catching a fish. This is waking up in the middle of nature! Since 2021 there is also a cozy wood stove in the living room. We also made the living room a little more comfortable.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is surrounded by reeds and water birds. A kingfisher roams around and the egret also shows up regularly. An otter has been spotted in the lake. It has shown itself several times recently. It is a place in the middle of the nature of the floodplain. The houseboat is located in Lake Stoter. This is a lake connected to the river IJssel. The floodplains of the river are a beautiful and diverse natural area. You are literally in the middle of it. In the spring, you can witness the mating dance of grebes and swans, among others, and sometimes actually see the young birds crawling out of the egg. Afterwards, it is so much noise because all these young animals learn to swim here and search for food. This can be followed from behind the windows, but there is also the possibility of sitting outside on the unique, wooden terrace. In winter, you can see the most unusual migratory birds perching to rest from their long journey south. Not infrequently they stop here to stay all winter. In all seasons it is beautiful and very different.

Ingeborg July 25, 2025 General rating:It is a fun experience and unique to be able to stay on part of a houseboat. Everything is well arranged and taken care of. Furniture to sit is not the most comfortable, but adequate. For 2 people it is fine for a few nights.
Het is een leuke ervaring en een uniek om op een deel van een woonboot te mogen verblijven. Alles is goed geregeld en verzorgd. Meubilair om te zitten is niet het meest comfortabel, maar voldoet. Voor 2 personen is het prima vertoeven voor enkele nachten.
Nature, peace & environment:Wonderfully quiet on the water. Nice view of Kampen and the water around you. Seen many different water birds and even deer.
Heerlijk rustig op het water. Mooi uitzicht op Kampen en het water om je heen. Veel verschillende watervogels gezien en zelfs ree.
