About this property
Modern houseboat in quiet harbor close to the IJsselmeer with SUPs and canoe
A day on the houseboat: wake up refreshed to have an espresso in the morning sun on the front terrace. To kickstart the day jump in the water from the swimming platform. Or paddle around in the canoe (free) or on the SUPs (free). The houseboat has a good bathroom & towels to take a shower afterwards.
The supermarket is around the corner where you can buy freshly baked bread for your breakfast.
Some nice options to do afterwards. Enjoy a bikeride to the beautiful cities Hindeloopen and Workum (2 bikes for rent). Or the other way past the sluices and via Reade Klif to former fishing village Laaksum. Go shopping by train in Leeuwarden or Sneek. The ferry takes you across the IJsselmeer to Enkhuizen.
Enjoy a nice bbq in the garden of the houseboat or use your cooking skills in the kitchen. If you prefer to dine out there are some nice restaurants.
Finish the day by admiring the sunset over the IJsselmeer at the harborlights of Stavoren.

We enjoyed our stay so much!This boat has everything you can think of.We really enjoyed the outdoor space and also the inside was comfy and clean. Very good location in walking distance to the shop and downtown!!We hope to be back, thanks a lot
Perfect houseboat vacation. We loved the boat, ever so slightly swaying at the front of the boat, but couldn't feel it in the beds, made us at home and relaxed. Very clean and appropriately appointed for our needs of eating out or cooking in (grocery store right across the canal, a 2 minute walk). The town is lovely to walk around or bike. We happened to be in town during a June parade and loved the experience. We ate at two local restaurants that were delicious. We enjoyed the kayak and stand up paddleboards in the canals for most of a day (definitely recommend). Can't wait to come back.

Der Aufenthalt auf dem Hausboot war sehr schön. Das Boot ist sauber, alle Informationen sind vorhanden, das Check-in vorbildlich und die Hausherren waren immer erreichbar und gaben freundliche Tipps. Stavoren ist direkt am Ijsselmer und ist ein schönes Städchen mit guter Infrastruktur. Sehr gerne können wir diese Unterkunft empfehlen. Wir waren zwei Wochen dort und es wurde nie langweilig.
Das Hausboot ist sehr liebevoll und gemütlich eingerichtet. Die Lage ist schön ruhig. Der Supermarkt war direkt um die Ecke, was sehr praktisch war. Die Gastgeber sind sehr aufmerksam und haben nette Tipps gegeben! Ein Insektenschutz wäre im Sommer bestimmt gut, das könnte noch verbessert werden.
Das Hausboot ist sehr schön, modern, geräumig und verfügt über alles, was man im Kurz Urlaub braucht.
Wir haben die 3Tage sehr genossen, weil auch das Wetter gut war (22°-27°) Ein Zusatz waren die 2 Standup Boards und der Supermarkt nebenan. Man brauch nicht kochen, da es viele Restaurants in der Nähe gibt, die im Preis Leistungsverhältnis günstig sind. Im Allgemeinen ist das Haus sehr zu empfehlen,
Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt in eurem Hausboot.
Zentral zum Hafen und Supermarkt gelegen, sehr ruhig, abends keine Fenster oder Türen öffnen, da viele Spinnen und Mücken reinkommen, Insektenschutz an den Fenstern wäre sinnvoll.
Tolle Location, klasse Boot und vor allem super Vermieter. Über Ostern leider noch zu kalt draußen um alle Möglichen zu nutzen, aber schon jetzt ein klasse Trip. Sehr gerne wieder!
