Cozy Quiet Getaway with Beautiful Scenery

Our family enjoyed staying on this mountainside cabin overlooking Lake Lucerne. Beautiful boat trip from downtown Lucerne to experience city life and nice to come back and wind down in quiet mountainside just below the summit of Mount Rigi. Host was very hospitable with lots of tips and recommendations for the local area.

Beautiful!

This was a fantastic experience! The host Lothar was great and helped to make this a very pleasant experience. The house is exactly as described. The view from the balcony is breathtaking. The house was well appointed and had everything needed for my family to enjoy meals and time together. Very quiet and restful location. Easy access from the RIgibahn. Fantastic hiking on Mount Rigi. Easy access to Lucerne. Depending on how long you stay and what you plan to do on the mountain, take time to review the various passes for Rigibahn and cable car access. Would definitely love to visit again!

Lage und Ausblick traumhaft

Die Lage und der Ausblick sind traumhaft. Der Vermieter ist nett, gibt viele Tipps für Ausflüge und hat innerhalb weniger Minuten geantwortet. Die Ausstattung der Wohnung ist 80er-Jahre-Style.

genialer Aufenthalt

Es war ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt, wir wären gerne noch länger geblieben. Die Aussicht ist unbeschreiblich. Nach jedem unserer Ausflüge zog es uns wie magisch wieder zu unserer Terrasse. Lothar war immer irgendwie erreichbar und hat uns mit wertvollen Tipps versorgt (auch schon vor der Anreise). Sehr gerne wieder!!

Amazing and postcard beautiful

From getting off the train to taking the boat ride over to Vitznau, then another train up one stop to our lovely Villa, this was one of the best and most beautiful vacations ever. The owner is always available via internet and even came by to meet us and deliver some fresh eggs. The view of Lake Luzern from our balcony was stunning. If you love the mountains and lake views, this is a must. If you enjoy boats, trains and hiking, this is the spot. We highly recommend staying here!!!! 5++ Stars!
