Holiday at Lake Vänern

Absolutely wonderful, our 2nd time at this lovely place.

Perfect place to relax. Perfect communication with owner. Perfect stay.

Everything at its best: accommodation, communication with the landlords, equipment left nothing to be desired.

It was a very beautiful journey.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this place. Despite slightly colder weather it was cozy and lovely with a beautiful view over the lake.

All perfect. With a big group it is rather small with only 1 tiny shower, but hey, there is a huge lake in front of you

Modern, well decorated and furnished house. It is more spacious than the pictures suggested. Owners have an eye for good interior design. We felt at home from the first minute. The view on lake Vänern from the dining room and terrace is marvelous. There are a few other holiday homes in the vicinity (not in direct sight), but in october we practically had the whole bay just for ourselves. The shore line consists of rocky parts with lots of puddles and little brooks, but also clean sandy beach-like parts probably perfect for swimming in summer. Our 3 year old son couldn't get enough of it, there is no better playground for adventurous kids than this. Did not get to use the sauna and boat but both looked very new and clean. We are definitely planning to come back. Thanks a lot to the very dedicated owners, we had a great time. No better place for the urgently needed time out from the stress of everyday life.

We used the house with our small family (a one year old toddler and a four year old kid) during end of August and begin of September. The house is perfectly located. The next house is not visible (100m away). It is just 50m to the Vänern with a small sandy beach. Perfect for our children. If you need something, just walk to the house and you have it. Every parent know, there is always something missing. There are no small islands in front of the bay. So the coastline is not protected and not so perfect for kayaking and rowing but anything else is perfect. The photos at the portal don't show the great environment. We don't know how many people visit this place during the summer high season but after the high season we noticed just one caravan for one night at the bay. (You need roughly 30 minutes to Säffle for the next ICA or COOP.) If you like hiking, there are lots of interesting routes but the classical natural reserves like Sörknatten need some driving around. If you are just for nice hikes, you will find some. Just buy a hiking map (there is a good book shop in Amal and a tourist info in Säffle). The owners were great. They stopped by after 14 days to check if they need to cut the grass and switch off a light (sic). After we left the house and went home, I noticed that I lost my wallet. They contacted the ICA and the police for me, went an additional time to the house and looked for the wallet. Everything after I was already back in Germany. This was amazing. Summary: a very nice house with perfect hosts.

Extremely quiet and beautiful area. The owners were very helpful and hospitable with questions and arrangements. The free use of a small rowboat, and a amazing wood fired sauna made the trip quite memorable for all of us. The beaches are nice and lots of shallow water for kids to play. Hopping around the rocks looking for wildlife was lots of fun too. The location is remote so bring lots of groceries and supplies with you, and just relax.

Fabulous all around. The lake has several sandy beaches very nearby including one directly in front of the cottage. There was an outdoor sauna with an incredible lake view. The cottage has clean, well equipped and even had air conditioning which was a nice surprise. Highly recommended!
