In the middle of the floodplains of the IJssel river 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 because it is located on the Zwolseweg 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 flash by. This is waking up in the middle of nature! On the same houseboat there is also a nature house for 4 persons (house code 24581). These can also be booked together for 10 persons.
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 is a place in the middle of the nature of the floodplain. The houseboat is located in the lake of 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 here to swim and to search for food. This can be followed from behind the windows, but there is also the possibility to sit outside on our unique wooden terrace. In the winter you can see the most extraordinary migratory birds perching to rest from their long journey south. Not infrequently they stop here to stay the whole winter. In all seasons it is beautiful and very different.

Bernadette November 16, 2025 General rating:The ark could use a lick of paint and the heating did not work, bought myself a bag of wood for the fireplace, otherwise it was wonderfully spacious.
De ark kan wel een likje verf gebruiken en de verwarming deed het niet, zelf een zakje hout gekocht voor de openhaard, verder was het heerlijk ruim.
Nature, peace & environment:Enjoyed nature
Genoten van de natuur

W October 3, 2025 General rating:It should be mentioned on the site that you can not speak of 2 bedrooms. We were with 2 older couples, which meant that 1 couple had to lie in the living room. The shower was in the bedroom which was also not pleasant. Furthermore, it was cosy furnished and also complete.
Het mag wel vermeld worden op de site dat je niet kunt spreken van 2 slaapkamers. Die waren er nl niet, er was er maar 1. Wij waren met 2 oudere stellen, dat betekende dat 1 paar in de huiskamer moest liggen. Ook de douche was op de slaapkamer wat ook niet prettig was. Verder was het cosy ingericht en ook compleet.
Nature, peace & environment:We were surprised that it was so nice out there on the water overlooking camps. It was blowing hard and heavy rain. That sloshing of the water against the boat was cozy
We waren verrast dat het zo leuk was daar op het water met zicht op kampen. Het waaide hard en flinke regen. Dat klotsen van het water tegen de boot was gezellig
