Despite the weather not being great, we had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed some beautiful bike rides. Eve was an excellent hostess, and the accommodation was perfect.
Evelyn gave us a very warm welcome, and the house was exceptionally clean. We felt completely comfortable during our stay. We did a lot of hiking in the beautiful surroundings, and despite the rain, the children used the pool every day and loved it.The house truly felt like home — everything we needed was there. Thank you so much, Evelyn! We will definitely be coming back.
A charming little vacation appartement with a great view
The apartment was charming and well equipped.
A special highlight was the terrace, which was built around a tree and the fantastic view. The pool was clean, refreshing and inviting to relax.
Eve, the hostess, was very friendly and helpful.
The surrounding area offers many excursion options and a wonderful landscape.
We'd love to come back.
Very nice accomodation. For us a great stay, the only small minus is the width of the bed, but we are used to 2,2 meter at home.The host was realy very nice and friendly, we could use their private garage for our bikes. The pool is realy great for a dip after a Bike ride. In the house you have everything that you need to cook and there is a fridge with a small compartiment to make ice cubes. Also very quit area where you can enjoy the silence. So we returned back home with a very good feeling and relaxed. Tnx again Eve for your hospitality.
Lovely cosy property in quiet village. It was not clear from the Vrbo listing that the swimming pool was shared with the owner. Not too much of a problem but it would have been nice to know. Charming property owners.

Bonjour,
Il est noté dans le descriptif que la piscine est à partager avec les propriétaires.Nous l utilisons seulement quand les gens n’y sont pas.
En espérant vous revoir en Alsace

Clean property, well equipped. We could use the freezer of the property owners. I was located in the garage under the apartment. Not too big, especially with two small children but because of the good weather we were outside most of the time. The terrace at the apartment was nice, we had our breakfast and dinner there. And of course the swimming pool is a big plus.
Very friendly owners.
"Center" of Buhl is +/- 10 min walk, not a lot to do there. It has two bakeries and that's about it. But it's a very good location if you like walking, running or cycling.
In Florival there is also a very enjoyable outdoor swimming pool.

SMALL CHALET OVER A GARAGE
Many thanks for the hospitality, and arranging the veterinary appointment.
Can I just point out that some of the descriptions for the accommodation on HomeAway are not accurate and caused us some concern.
Listing states the private pool. The pool clearly belongs to the main house and is not private to the gite. I would have felt very uncomfortable using the pool as it is very overlooked.
The listing also says there are
DVD Player
Music Library
Satellite / Cable
Video Library
non of these were available and their absence did disappoint us.
Also we were unable to access internet throughout the holiday.

Bonjour,
La piscine est privée, car nous propriétaire sommes les seules à l' utiliser lorsque les locataires sont absents.Il n' y a pas de bibliothèque mais des revues, internet, et aujourd'hui tout le monde utilise une clé usb et a sa musique avec son ordinateur ou iphone.Le garage fait parti de la maison,et les gens peuvent y laisser leur vélos ou autres affaires
Pour la tv il y a toutes les chaines de la tnt.,et pour internet on se connecte sur la free box avec le code.Il n' y a que vous qui n' avez pas réussi et qui en plus avez laissé le gite tres sale.
Regardez tous les autres commentaires,et vous verrez qu'il n'y a jamais eu de probleme,mais il y a toujours des insatisfaits
Cordialement
Espace bien optimisé qui convient pour un couple avec 1 enfant. Eve très gentille et accueillante. Lieu bien situé avec belle vue sur le village et la vallée côté séjour. A 25 minutes des randonnées du grand ballon, site exceptionnel du massif des Vosges, qui vous emmène tout de même jusqu'à 1400m. Prévoir bonnes chaussures et équipement correct. Balisage facile pour se composer des variantes d'itinéraires. Je recommande

Das Objekt entsprach der Beschreibung, die kleine Wohnung war komfortabel, gemütlich, zweckmäßig, liebevoll dekoriert eingerichtet. Wir hatten alles, was wir brauchten. Die Küchenteile war so eingerichtet, dass wir gut und komfortabrl kochen konnten, was wir sehr gerne tun, klasse war der Pool und die Garage für unsere E-Bikes. Kleiner Nachteil: bröckeliges internet und die fehlende Spülmaschine , sonst TOP!
Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit, Madame Evelyn ist eine sehr nette und aufmerksame Gastgeberin.Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt,nur der Pool hätte etwas wärmer sein können,und das Bett war ein bisschen schmal.Aber wir würden trotzdem wieder kommen,die Lage ist traumhaft schön.
Bon accueil avec toutes les explications utiles par une hôte très gentille et serviable. L'équipement de la cuisine est complet. Petit bémol pour le frigo, un peu petit et endommagé (porte-bouteilles) par des locataires précédents. Endroit très calme rythmé par les cloches de l'église située plus bas. Par les fortes chaleurs, la piscine a été un vrai plus. Quelques beaux endroits à visiter autour du village. Wifi compétitif à relancer de temps en temps mais il a fait son travail.

Danke schön
Bis an andere mal
Sie sind eine schöne Familie und ihre zwei kinder sind super!!!
Vielen Dank für Alles , der Aufenthalt in der gut eingerichteten Ferienwohnung hat uns sehr gefallen. Es ist alles vorhanden, was man braucht . Die Betten sind sehr bequem! Am besten war der sehr gepflegte Pool , den wir oft genutzt haben . Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und haben uns Tipps für Ausflüge gegeben. Alles in allem ein schöner und erholsamer Urlaub!
Ein zauberhaftes Häuschen dem es an nichts fehlt in einer wunderschönen Umgebung, sowie ein unglaublich nette und hilfsbereite Vermieterin. Der Pool ist noch zusätzlicher Pluspunkt, der vor allem die Kinder überzeugt hat. Vielen Dank für die schönen Tage!
Eine hübsche kleine Wohnung mit kleiner Terrasse und Pool. Es hat nichts gefehlt. Eine halbe Autostunde von Colmar und den anderen sehenswerten Städtchen entfernt. Im Ort ein nettes kleines Restaurant und eine hervorragende Patisserie!Die Vermieterin sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit!Gerne wieder!
Un excellent sejour dans un endroit décoré avec soin où l'on se sent à l'aise immédiatement. Tout ce qui est utile est à disposition. Parfait pour découvrir les environs. Mention special à l'accueil de grande qualité de notre hôte, toujours disponible au besoin. Ce fut un plaisir
