Nature and surroundings
From the berth, where you can park for free, it is about 15 minutes by boat through the beautiful, primeval Dutch landscape. The Vinkeveen lake is praised for its clear swimming water and is very popular terrain for anglers. There are many cozy eateries supermarkets and other stores in Vinkeveen and nearby Abcoude and Mijdrecht. A legakker is an elongated island left over from peat cutting. This is where the peat was laid out to dry. At the log cabin you look out over a nature reserve with the most beautiful sunsets. It is self-sufficient and full of flowers, trees and plants. Outdoor lights glow as the sun sets. The Botshol nature reserve is enormously rewarding to wander through by subboard or canoe.

The island is a little slice of paradise. The hot tub, the boat, the cottage, and the trailer—all the amenities are there, and Eva is a sweetheart of a host. Just keep in mind that you’ll need to bring your own bed linens. The caravan is super cute but a bit dated. It gets cold at night, so we put a sweater on our baby, and we would have liked to have had a mosquito net there as well. Other than that, everything was great! We’ll definitely be coming back—what a delight it was!
Het eiland is een klein paradijsje. De hottub, het bootje, het huisje en de caravan - alle voorzieningen zijn er en Eva is een schat van een host. Wel goed om te beseffen dat je je eigen bedlinnen moet meenemen. De caravan is super schattig en wat verouderd. In de nacht is het koud en een we hebben onze baby daarom een trui aangedaan en we hadden daar graag ook muskietennet gehad. Verder was alles top! We gaan zeker nog een keer terugkomen, wat een genot was het!
We had a wonderful stay. The island is a little piece of paradise.

Nothing missing here
We had an absolutely wonderful stay from June 25th to June 28th. Everything was simply perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for more.
The location is absolutely breathtaking. Surrounded by nature and right on the lake, it is the perfect place to relax, unwind, and leave all the stress of everyday life behind. We truly enjoyed every moment and were able to recharge completely in just a few days.
The little cabin is cozy, beautifully designed, and has everything you could possibly need. The hot tub was an amazing addition and made our stay even more special. There was honestly nothing missing – every detail had been thoughtfully prepared.
A special thank you goes to the host, who is incredibly kind, welcoming, and caring. She made sure everything was perfect and always made us feel well looked after throughout our stay.
We can wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for peace, nature, and a truly relaxing getaway. We would love to come back one day!

There was nothing missing. I was able to chill out and fish around the clock. The landlady is very nice and helpful.
Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Ich konnte rund um die Uhr chillen und angeln. Die Vermieterin ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
It is a very beautiful spot and a paradise for anglers.
