Nature house in Vinkeveen
Utrecht, Netherlands
- 2 persons
- 1 bedroom
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
An island on the Vinkeveen lakes. A self-sufficient Tiny-House of 16 m2 with 2 sleeping places. WC, outdoor shower, electricity, stove, TV, fridge, gas stove and 100 m2 of outdoor space all for you. Make a campfire, no problem. Dog along, no problem. Despite all the luxury, you have to be a little adventurous. The shower is on the side of the cottage and has hot and cold water. To make your stay on the island possible, when you book you get access to a good boat ( askeladden ) equipped with a combustion engine 4hp. You do not need a license for this. The boat is insured, your own risk is € 250. If you are not familiar with boating, we need 30 minutes of your time to teach you the basic skills. You will learn the finer points during your vacation. In Holland we often talk about the weather. On an island you will experience the weather more intensely, so be prepared.
Nature and surroundings
The Vinkeveense Plassen are a concept in themselves. In the green heart, Nature Network Netherlands area (NNN), against Botshol (natura 2000). In the top of diving locations in the Netherlands due to the clear water. All this is true and you can fully enjoy it. Living on an island adds another dimension to this. On the island you are in very direct contact with weather. A fresh dive in one of the cleanest natural waters in the Netherlands makes you forget all your worries.

We had a wonderful three days. A lovely, peaceful spot with a beautiful view and gorgeous weather. We were welcomed by very friendly, helpful owners. The cottage was neat and tidy—basic but well-equipped. The bathroom facilities were perfectly fine. The boat that came with the cottage was fantastic. Using the boat to go grocery shopping or out to dinner is a really fun experience.
Wij hebben drie dagen genoten. Heerlijk rustig plekje met prachtig uitzicht en prachtig weer. Zijn ontvangen door heel vriendelijke, behulpzame eigenaren. Huisje was netjes. Basis maar compleet. Sanitair was prima in orde. De bijbehorende boot was geweldig. Met de boot boodschappen doen of uiteten gaan is echt een leuke ervaring.

The only downside was that—since we city folks aren't used to it—you have to shower with water from the lake itself.
Enige minpuntje was dat -wij stadsmensen zijn het niet gewend- er gedoucht moet worden met water uit de plas zelf.
It was wonderful to get away for a few days; we had a fantastic time on the island. Victor and Heleen took great care of us, and we’ll definitely be back.
Heerlijk om er even een paar dagen er uit te gaan, we hebben top dagen op het eiland gehad. Het was door Victor en Heleen prima verzorgd en we gaan zeker nog een keer terug.

We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back. Highly recommended!
Wij hebben ontzettend genoten en komen zeker terug. Dikke aanrader!
We had the pleasure of spending a wonderful long weekend in this cottage. We received a warm welcome, and the host was very helpful, even during our stay.
The location is beautiful—a quiet spot on the Vinkeveense Plassen with wonderfully clean swimming water right outside the door. The cottage is perfectly sized for two people. The sofa bed is spacious (we slept wonderfully).
Grocery shopping, dining out, exploring the islands… you can do it all with the boat provided. The motor was as good as new; it starts right up.Wij hebben een heerlijke lang weekend mogen doorbrengen in dit huisje. De ontvangst was gastvrij en de verhuurder is zeer behulpzaam, ook gedurende het verblijf.
De lokatie is prachtig, een rustig plekje in de Vinkeveense plassen met heerlijk schoon zwemwater voor de deur. Het huisje volstaat prima voor 2 personen. De slaapbank is royaal (wij hebben heerlijk geslapen).
Boodschappen doen, restaurantje bezoeken, eilandjes verkennen… dit doe je allemaal met de bijgeleverde boot. De motor was zo goed als nieuw; starten is lopen.This text is automatically translated.
