Home away from Home

Being expats living in the US, this home, its surroundings and the town of Joure brought back all those wonderful feelings from our early years. If I could, I would make it our permanent home. Wonderful!

A hidden gem on the Frysian Lakes

Beautiful, well maintained home, perfectly situated with the Frysian Lakes within reach. Very well equipped and very well maintained. The farm across the water contributes to the country side feeling and the horse back riding on that farm gives it all an extra dimension. When we come back to the Netherlands, we will definitely stay here!

Great spot out of town with easy access to Joure restaurants, grocery stores, etc.

Next to a horse property separated by a canal. Lovely boats floating down the canal. A modern lovely home in a beautiful rural setting. Hosts were wonderful even picking me up a Christmas tree that was there when we arrived. New hot tub and sauna that both burn wood was a great plus! A wonderful home for a family to cook dinners and play games…

Amazing stay in a home away from home

We absolutely loved our stay in this house. The property overlooks a canal and the views were amazing. We were there for the Dutch holiday at the end of April and saw a parade of sailboats and motor boats drifting along outside our windows. We woke to the sounds of birds (ducks and geese) and watched the horses train in the farm on the other side of the canal from the house. The property itself was beautifully appointed. The baths were gorgeous and the beds were comfy. I can’t say enough about our stay and Karen was very helpful with recommendations for walks and things to do in the area. We will be back!

Perfect place to relax!

We visited in November to spend some calm days out of the city. The spacious house and garden are well set up and maintained. The living area with the wood stove is very comfortable and cozy. In general, there is great attention to detail with everything. Communication with the host was very friendly and uncomplicated. Thanks again and hopefully we can come back sometime!

Buitengewoon verblijf!

Fantastische gezellige woning! Heel netjes en ontzettend compleet. Ook de keuken was buitengewoon compleet ingericht met oa bakvormen, mixer, ovenschalen, fijne grote pannen etc. En aan alles is gedacht. Heerlijke houtkachel voor extra gezelligheid. Correct contact met de verhuurder. Super verblijf gehad in een super woning op een heel mooie tuin. Ook de ensuite badkamers waren heel fijn voor ons gezin bestaande uit 3 getrouwde stellen. Aanrader!

Heerlijk nazomeren in Fries landschap

Een lange week in dit heerlijke huis aan de Lijkvaart verbleven. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien, en zelfs bij wat slechtere meteorologische condities heel gezellig. Met jonge kinderen is waakzaamheid geboden, want de mooie tuin is niet afgesloten aan de waterkant(op de foto’s is dit nog wel zo). Wij hadden een strak zwemvestbeleid voor buitenshuis, en dan is het goed te doen. Het “contactloze contact” met de eigenaresse Karen is heel adequaat en hulpvaardig. Wij komen hier heel graag terug! Het waren dagen met een gouden randje!
