Forest Retreat Between Lake & Ocean Escape to a 4-star modern sanctuary nestled in the heart of a fragrant pine forest at the foot of the dune. This south-facing 3-bedroom home invites you to wake up to the rustle of the trees and relax on a 60 m² terrace with uninterrupted woodland views. Inside, a bright open-plan living area, sleek kitchen, and walk-in shower create the perfect balance of comfort and luxury—ideal for up to 6 guests. Whether you're sipping espresso at sunrise or enjoying a quiet glass of Médoc wine in the evening, nature is always within reach.
Beaches, Biking & Bordeaux Wines Perfectly placed between the ocean and lake, you’re just a 10-minute bike ride to Maubuisson’s lakeside charm or 15 minutes to the wild waves of Carcans Plage. Spend your days paddleboarding, sailing, or lounging on the sand. Cyclists and hikers will love the scenic trails weaving through the forest. And for wine enthusiasts, world-renowned Médoc vineyards and châteaux are just a short drive away, as are bucket-list destinations like the Dune du Pilat, Cap Ferret, and Bordeaux.
Dining & Details That Matter After a day of adventure, treat yourself to delicious seafood or a cozy bistro meal in Maubuisson (2 km away). The home offers all the amenities you need—from sun loungers and a secure garage to a full kitchen and washer.

Detta ställe är en hel vibe! Den privata trädgården är perfekt för avkopplande häng, och tallarna ger stora skogs känslor, Plus, super nära sjön och stranden för alla vattensporter, Low-key älskade den mysiga eldstaden också, Kommer definitivt tillbaka!

Wat een heerlijk toevluchtsoord! Het huis was prachtig ingericht en had alles wat we nodig hadden voor onze gezinsvakantie, We genoten vooral van het ruime terras met uitzicht op het dennenbos, perfect voor koffie in de ochtend, De nabijheid van het meer en de oceaan was een groot pluspunt voor onze kinderen die dol waren op de zandstranden
Très bon séjour, Maison très bien équipée, bon accueil

Un ottimo posto per le famiglie! Avevamo abbastanza spazio per tutti, e i bambini adoravano gli sport acquatici nelle vicinanze, La posizione era tranquilla e ci siamo sentiti a casa nello spazio abitativo accogliente, L'unico svantaggio era che avremmo voluto rimanere più a lungo!

Questo posto è un vero gioiello! La disposizione della casa era fantastica, soprattutto con tre camere da letto confortevoli, Abbiamo trascorso i nostri pomeriggi a rilassarci sulla terrazza, godendoci la vista dei pini, Inoltre, essere così vicini a diverse opzioni di ristorazione è stato molto comodo

Detta semesterhem överträffade våra förväntningar, Det var mycket rent och välutrustat, vilket gjorde vår vistelse bekväm, Läge var fridfullt, vilket gjorde att vi kunde fly bort från stressen, Vi njöt av att cykla till Maubuisson för shopping och mat, Rekommenderar starkt!
The house is very well maintained and located in a lovely and quiet part of the forest, yet still close to the lake. The owners - Céline & Stéphane - gave us a warm welcome and were very responsive to our messages. The house has all the equipment you need to feel at home, is decorated with very high standards and excellent taste. We recommend this location.
Das Haus is sehr neu und mit Geschmack eingerichtet. Man merkt, dass die Vermieter es selber auch sehr gerne nutzen. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Celine und Stephane haben uns herzlich begrüßt und verabschiedet. Einzige kleine Kritik: Für mehr Personen wären eventuell ein weiterer großer Topf und eine große Pfanne gut.
Die Umgebung ist ebenfalls sehr ansprechend. Pinienwald, See oder Meer bieten viele Möglichkeiten sich zu erholen. Vielen Dank Celine und Stephane!
La maison est très agréable, décorée avec goût, fonctionnelle et parfaitement équipée. Elle est située au cœur d’une forêt de pins, à proximité des pistes cyclables menant à Maubuisson et à Carcans plage.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour en famille !
Maison de qualité irréprochable, très bien placée proche du lac et des pistes cyclables. Céline et Stéphane ont été très accueillants. Nous recommandons vivement!

Wir waren mit dem Empfang durch die Eigentümer sehr zufrieden. Das Haus war sehr gepflegt und modern eingerichtet. Die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Da der Garten neu angelegt war, kann man nur sagen, dass wenn es etwas zugewachsener ist man auch ein herrliches Außengelände hat. Ein vierter Liegestuhl wäre toll bzw. für alle Gäste einen.
