The Boathouse - Romantische Glas-Lodge - Whirlpool

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆:

A glass-fronted hideaway on a private lake, The Boathouse is a one-of-a-kind retreat for two. Soak in the hot tub, kayak at sunrise, or just stay in with the log burner glowing and the water right outside your window. With a sun deck over the lake, a mezzanine bedroom, and access to wild swimming, trails and total stillness - this is where you come to disconnect, slow down, and feel completely away.

Fully booked? Search for Willow, Waterlily or Island - identical escapes on the same lake.
