Beautiful Lakeside cottage with large yard

DoutzenRating, 5 stars35 months ago

This slice of paradise is such a good place to get away for a few days. The garden is stunning and so relaxing, chickens roaming around, lots of birds to spot, as it's right at the waterfront of lake Muhazi. In the evening, sit on the veranda with a fire and wake up early for a refreshing swim. You can easily cook for yourself with all pots, pans and cutlery that is available, but if you want there's a couple of restaurants in the area as well that you can check out.. Did I already mention how beautiful the garden is? :-) I really enjoyed my stay and will definitely come back here. Thank you Dominik and Naomie!

The home features a covered patio that overlooks the serene lake, surrounded by lush greenery and well-maintained gardens. The rustic brick exterior complements the natural setting, with trees providing shade and tranquility.

J'ai eu le plaisir de séjourner chez Evode et sa femme. Hôte très accueillant et serviable. Assez flexible et réactif. Ils m'ont fait d'excellentes recommandations pour des restaurants avec la nourriture locale et une balade sur le lac kivu. La femme d'Evode m'a offert un petit déjeuner bien copieux. L'appartement ressemble à la description avec une chambre très propre. Le seul petit bémol l'appartement est situé en bordure d'une route nationale. J'ai été réveillé à 6h du matin par le trafic. Encore merci pour ce séjour et au plaisir d'y retourner.

La petite maison du lac

BRating, 5 stars49 months ago

Le petit maison du lac was everything I was hopping for and more. Being a nature lover, it's a beautiful place away from everything. It's very quite and relaxing, and the views are incredible. I especially like the nighttime views of the stars sitting by the fire next to the lake. I went with my family and friends and we had an incredible time. Weather you're looking for a quite time with your family or a "gathering" with your friends this is the place. The host Clarise was the best. She reached out to us immediately and gave us all the tips to make our time even better. We purchased a whole goat for a great price and her guy made us several great meals out of it for us, including "agatogo" in the morning which instantly kills the hangover :) Anyways I can go on and on, but simply put this is a great place and I highly recommend it. I'll be going back again and again
