    A week away from the bustle of the city, lovely place on the water. despite the weather was less enjoyed the tranquility. it is a nice house where everything is there to spend a week. Fine also that the host himself did the reception. even in winter a great place with a fine wood stove what gives atmosphere and close to stores in Spaarndam. but Haarlem is also dichr bij. all in all a great week for us

    Our stay in this Nature house was simply wonderful. As soon as we arrived, we immediately felt at home - the house is cozy, modern and equipped with everything you need. The hosts are very warm and make you feel welcome. The property right on the lake is a dream - ideal for relaxing, fishing directly from the jetty or for a boat trip with the rentable motorboat. Enjoying the peace and quiet and the view of the water in the morning was simply priceless. A perfect place to unwind and get away from it all.

    A beautiful Nature house in a fantastic location! The house is very well equipped and well maintained - there is really nothing missing. The hosts are super friendly and welcoming. The large property right on the lake is perfect for relaxing, and you can even hire a lovely motorboat on site. Highly recommended - we would love to come back!

    Ralph's cottage has an incredible location. Directly on the lake with a jetty where our son fished. The terrace (lounge area) is fantastic. Many excursion destinations by bike and car within 1 hour. The eat-in kitchen is incredibly well equipped. Great view from the living room to the lake with sunset. We felt very comfortable. The stairs in the house are short and winding. We only ventilated where there are mosquito nets, so the bedrooms may be a bit stuffy. Shopping 500m away was possible.
