Welcome to our fantastic island, where absolutely everything comes together. A charming wooden house with a unique view of the water and fields dotted with cows. On the island, you can truly unwind or simply enjoy nature. You’ll have access to a waterfront terrace with a boat and pedal boat, and you can also go fishing. A barbecue is provided, and we also have two bicycles that you’re welcome to use. The cottage is 100 m² and can accommodate up to 8 people. There’s a spacious bar next to the kitchen, a large dining table, and a comfortable leather sofa with an armchair and two recliners. There’s plenty of closet space. Games for the kids are provided. The bathroom is a bit dated, but everything works fine and is clean. Otherwise, it’s a wonderfully cozy home inside where you’ll truly have a pleasant stay. It’s completely private, and we also offer one free use of our unique hot tub, where you can sit 3 meters above the ground in a converted sea buoy and enjoy the sunset.
Nature and surroundings
The island is located close to the shore at our small nature campground, so you’ll have your own private island all to yourself, right next to our little lake, from which you can also paddle further through our forest. But when the kids want to play, they can of course use the playground equipment, and in the evening, they can join us for a cozy campfire. If there’s enough interest, we’ll make pizza ourselves in our wood-fired stone oven, and we also regularly smoke salmon, eel, and gurnard. From our campground, you can enjoy wonderful excursions to various nature areas, including the Wadden Sea region, Lauwersmeer, and Buitenveld, as well as fantastic bike rides or canoe trips. You can also visit the islands or Eernewoude and rent a boat or canoe there, for example. We’re located 1 km from the Eleven Cities Route and 8 km from Dokkum, where you can also enjoy a fun day out. There are several museums and zoos nearby. We hope you’ll come and enjoy our unique island and cottage. Kind regards, The Bijker Family

The location is beautiful, but accessibility is definitely not good for people with disabilities. The cottage itself is dated, but if you can look past that, it’s very comfortable. It’s a shame there aren’t any window screens in the bedrooms.
Ligging is mooi, toegankelijkheid is zeker niet goed voor minder validen, het huisje zelf is gedateerd en als je daar doorheen kan kijken is het heel gerieflijk. Jammer dat er geen horren in de slaapkamers zijn.
A quiet neighborhood, friendly residents, and a great spot to watch the ducks on the lake.
Rustig terrein, aardige bewoners, en lekker eendjes kijken op de plas.

The cottage is spacious; there were four of us. The kitchen is basic but adequate (it didn't have an oven).
Huisje is ruim, we waren met zijn vieren. Keuken is basic maar voldoet (misten een oven).
What a lovely spot by the water. The surroundings are beautiful, with the mound villages and the Wadden Sea coast. The property is still under construction, but Jan is turning it into something beautiful.
Wat een heerlijke plek aan het water. De omgeving is prachtig met de terpdorpjes, waddenkust. Het terrein is nog vol in ontwikkeling maar Jan maakt er iets moois van.

The kitchen is fully equipped and has its own washing machine.
Keuken is compleet en een eigen wasmachine.
A really beautiful spot and a spacious house. The beds are comfortable, and Jan is super friendly. Campfires, eating fish, and enjoying a boat ride or fishing on the pond—we never got bored. The campground is mostly populated by regular guests (you don’t really notice Adaar, by the way) and a few temporary guests. The cottage could use some TLC, but other than that, it’s simply a fantastic place.
Een super mooie plek en een ruim huis. De bedden liggen goed en Jan is super vriendelijk. Kampvuur, visje eten en lekker op de vijver varen of vissen, we hebben ons niet verveeld. Er staan vooral vaste gasten (Adaar merk je overigens weinig van) op de camping en wat tijdelijke gasten. Het huisje heeft wat liefde nodig, maar buiten dat gewoonweg super plek.
