Surreal Mountain Village
I've never stayed in a place as beautiful as this. The village is tucked away in the mountains, with awesome views scenery in every direction. Joseph greeted us and explained everything and was very accommodating. He even brought out a scooter and toys for the kids. We felt at home. We took day trips each day and had a great time. I could have just spent our time in the village walking and staring at the scenery. Great place and great people!

THE CENTER OF BEAUTIFUL ISENTHAL
This apartment is in the very center of the small village of Isenthal across from the elementary school. The hosts are very kind and helpful and provided things as stated. It is a great place for hiking which we did every day. The views of the mountains are amazing. Well worth a visit to this part of Switzerland.

Perfect for families
We absolutely loved our stay in this apartment! For us it was perfect...it felt like home away from home. Our 3 boys were pleased to have their own bed each and lots of interesting toys and board games to fossick through. Playground and basketball hoop across the road. The house was equipped with everything you could possibly need, it was warm, cosy and the beds were really comfortable. Not far to drive to nearby ski resorts. So glad we stumbled across this little gem, our stay in Isenthal was the highlight of our trip through Europe!

Fantastic!!!
Our trip to Isenthal was a great experience. Maria and Josef are great hosts. Josef was always available and very helpful with everything we asked for. The acommodation was great, definitely more than we expected. You will find literally everything in this house, from a baking paper to toys for your kids. Our 2 years Victoria was delighted with a barn and wooden animals. Isenthal is located 750 meters above the sea level, so when you are driving up or down to Isleten you can enjoy amazing view of the lake and surrounding mountains. I also recommend a walk along the lake in Isleten, because it is absolutely beautiful. We visited Grindelwald, Engelberg, Luzern, Klewenalp (only 10 km away). We enjoyed our holiday so much that we extended our stay for 2 days! Maria and Josef, thank you once again for making our stay unforgetable. Ela, Jacek and Victoria.

Excellent accomodations
My 3 children and I had a wonderful time staying in this apartment. Plenty of space, toys, books, games, and amenities. The drive up and down the mountain was a little scary the first few times, but we adjusted. The view and quietness of the village was worth the adjustment. The apartment was very clean and the hosts were extremely helpful and friendly. It reminded me of coming home to Grandma's - so comfy and cozy! Thank you!

great place in a beautiful landscape setting
Apartment: This is a traditional rustic apartment that serves families (especially with smaller kids) well. Most likely you'll spend most of the time outside of the house anyway, but even on a rainy day the apartment can hold you over. The owners are super friendly and very helpful. Location: The drive up might be a bit challenging but rest assured that most drivers around you know what they're doing. Across the house there is a school playground which our kids liked a lot. 1/4 mile down hill there is another playground with fireplace that is great for a dinner or two. Attractions: For families with kids between 5 and 12 one of the most perfect hikes is at Gitschenen. Drive up to St.Jakob (ample parking space) and take the Gondola up. At the top there is an easy (veru little elevation change) hike through the various types of surroundings Switzerland has to offer (Forrest, little spring, open mountain path). At the half way point there us a little fireplace so don't forget to pack some Bratwurst and Cervolas (hotdogs). A cruise from Flüelen (about 25min from the apartment) is an awesome activity for both sunny and rainy days. You can go all the way to Luzern (3hr) and take the train back. If the kids want to go swimming there are a bunch of options on the lake (Iselten, right where you ascent to Isenthal; Seedorf (a larger, more organized spot) or indoors at the Wellwnbad in Altdorf (great for a rainy day). Fazit: Great place and the kids requested a repeat next year

An excellent stay in an enchanting village
We didn't meet Martina, but Joseph and their daughter welcomed us. They were really friendly, and were available for any questions, as they stay in the upper floor. The house was really comfortable for six of us,and the baby in our group had some nice toys tò play with. The surroundings are really nice, with some awesome views of the mountains. There is a grocery shop, 2 restaurants a few steps from the house and a bus service that almost comes to the door. :)....There is also safe parking available nearby the house. Only difficulty is to go anywhere, you will have to drive down the mountain , and the road is not very wide. But there was not much traffic through the road, while i stayed. Will surely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing holiday in the mountains.

very happy
We stayed for one week, March 2017. It was warm, sunny days. The apartment was comfortable, well equipped. We had coffee in the yard, enjoying the sun. A lot of toys/games for kids. Also travel/tourist information were available in the apartment. Bedroom had good comfy large bed and large closet. Bunk bed was good for children. Two other rooms looking at the street and school across it. The kitchen is well equipped with eating in table. The cloth washing machine on ground floor comes handy. Isenthal is small village, about 40 minutes from Lucerne, with 4km drive up the mountain with great views. We wanted to explore small Swiss village, and this was perfect. Across from apartment there is guest house that has good food breakfast, dinner, also nearby hotel, which we did not eat there. As others mentioned a mountain lift is nearby, and village has small store. We did enjoy every minute.
