Nature and surroundings
The area is perfect for wonderful hiking and cycling. The Drents-Friese Wold is known for the Bald Dunes or Aekinger Sand. This sand drift area is large enough to allow the wind to actually drift the sand. There are also several lookout towers in the area and worth climbing to experience the sunset. Lake Canada is a pleasant refreshment on a hot day. The lake is surrounded by forests and has an island. In the adjacent lake dogs are allowed to swim. From the house you can walk onto the Doldersummerveld and you can climb the watchtower.

Well cared for, simple but complete house. Very nice for our family, also very suitable for people with smaller children. Plenty to do and relax. And the funny shape of the house completes the experience.
Goed verzorgd, eenvoudig maar compleet huis. Heel fijn voor onze familie, ook zeer geschikt voor mensen met kleinere kinderen. Genoeg te doen en te ontspannen. En de grappige vorm van het huis maakt de beleving compleet.
Nature, peace & environment:Lovely cottage in the woods near the Drents-Friese Wold. We really enjoyed the house, the surroundings, the hot tub and the game cellar with table tennis and table soccer. Lots of privacy and at night it is really earth dark here, very special.
Heerlijk huisje in de bossen bij het Drents-Friese Wold. We hebben ontzettend genoten van het huis, de omgeving, de hot tub en de spelletjeskelder met pingpong en tafelvoetbal. Veel privacy en 's nachts is het hier echt aardedonker, heel bijzonder.

on the house itself there is nothing to criticize
op het huis zelf is niets aan te merken
Nature, peace & environment:it is a beautiful cozy house, but very cramped for 10 people. we have seen pictures that the interior was different and better. the table in the kitchen was way too big and always had to have some people standing up to let the others pass behind it, and there were only five of us. no sofa bed seen, no 2nd bathroom and the hot tub did not work. however, there was more than enough linens.
het is een prachtig sfeervol huis, maar erg krap voor 10 personen. we hebben foto's gezien dat de inrichting anders was en beter. de tafel in de keuken was veel te groot en moest er steeds een aantal mensen opstaan om de anderen er achter langs te laten, en wij waren maar z'n vijven. geen slaapbank gezien, geen 2e badkamer en de hottub werkte niet. wel was er meer dan genoeg linnengoed.

Everything has been thought of, for the dog(s): dog bed, drinking bowls, vacuum cleaner. But also all baby equipment is available; cribs, bath, playpen, etc.
Aan alles is gedacht, voor de hond(en): hondenbed, drinkbakken, stofzuiger. Maar ook alle babyspullen zijn aanwezig; babybedjes, badje, box, etc.
Nature, peace & environment:Lovely quiet area with beautiful hiking areas a short drive away. Swimming lake for dogs (and people) nearby. More than spacious enough for 6 adults, with game room (table tennis, foosball) in basement and badminton outside.
Heerlijk rustige omgeving met mooie wandelgebieden op korte rij-afstand. Zwemmeertje voor de honden (en mensen) in de buurt. Meer dan ruim genoeg voor 6 volwassenen, met speelruimte (tafeltennis, tafelvoetbal) in de kelder en badminton buiten.
