Vacation rentals with lake access in Utrecht

What a wonderful place and a great host. The house is a lovely vintage thatched roof house with waterfront on both the back and front of the house. There are kayaks and a paddle boat for fun which we used. The area is quiet with quaint villages nearby and a grocery store less than a mile away. We had a very good experience and I recommend it highly to anyone wanting be close to Amsterdam but sleep in the peace of the country.

We had a very relaxing stay at Anneke's. The house is nice and you can relax wonderfully in the hot tub. Anneke is super easy to reach and always responds very quickly! Thank you for the wonderful time!

What a beautiful house, sparkling clean, large kitchen, lovely lounge area outside under canopy. Beautiful hiking area within walking distance. Long table in the kitchen where delicious food and spent the evening with friends. There was glass jar on the table with cards asking questions. Conversation themes enough to come up with each other.

We had 4 very nice days in the idyllic surroundings and the very nice house. There were five of us there and we had a dog with us too. Everything was a great fit. Going to the cottage and exploring the area was also really fun. We would definitely love to come back again. Best regards and thank you. Winkler family

Very nice contact with quick answers from Wouter. The location of the house is wonderful, quiet and with a great view of the water all around. Beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows and the house is exactly as described in the listing. It is not far to Lisse, Keukenhof, Utrecht and Amsterdam.

A beautiful house in a peaceful, quiet place. It has everything we needed for a long time stay. Jorrit is very helpful, ha was always avalaible if we had any questions. We definitely recommend this place.

Everything was great! The apartment is clean, well equipped and perfectly located. I felt very comfortable – happy to come back!

Refreshing, peaceful and beautiful cottage. Demi is friendly and took care of us throughout the stay. I highly recommend it because the place is exceptional!

We had a warm and friendly welcome from Marc. He gave us lots of information about the apartment and local area. As soon as we stepped into the apartment we felt at home. It's very attractively decorated, light and airy. It has everything you need to feel comfortable and settled. Super clean. The locale is perfect, very convenient for supermarkets, etc , but close to fields, woodlands , lakes- beautiful. A perfect place to stay - peaceful, lovely ambience.

We felt very comfortable in the accommodation. The pictures correspond exactly to what it looks like. Communication with Sandra was also very good 😊

A 10-star accommodation, quite an experience

Beautiful accommodations in Harderwijk! Would recommend staying here again!

Anne received us very well and responded very quickly to our messages. The accommodation is on a very peaceful street, close to restaurants and small shops if needed. A very pretty village with its beautiful little alleys. Breakfast is exceptional. Special note for orange juice, strawberry jam, and super creamy yogurt. Thanks to Anne for her kind attention and availability.

Maurits and his wife are lovely and welcoming people. Upon arrival we were welcomed by Maurits who immediately gave us a tour of the apartment. The apartment is located under their detached house on the water which was really great. The space is very spacious and equipped with every comfort. Upon arrival, we were able to enjoy a nice Brabant's sausage roll and a bottle of wine. We quickly felt at home, which is always important to us. The living room is large, large bed nice kitchen and a separate shower room with a washer-dryer. The only thing was that there was only one window where the light could come in. This was no problem for us, especially not because the living space was large and we actually didn't suffer from this. We were allowed to use the jetty and the conservatory overlooking the water. We felt really welcome what a nice side effect of our stay was. We would like to come back in the future.

What a wonderfully spacious apartment. It was more spacious than it looked in the photos. In the evening very cozy with the stove on. All amenities were good. For us the perfect base for a few days of nature and city. We were there in summer winter but for other seasons also a really nice place to stay. Thank you!

Beautiful, well located apartment at the water. Very clean and great amenities. Communication with host was on point 😊

Very beautiful place peaceful relaxing

We had a lovely stay! The host was incredibly warm and welcoming, we immediately felt welcome. The cottage itself is beautiful, cozily furnished and the wood-burning stove provided extra atmosphere and warmth — perfect for a relaxing evening. The surroundings are magnificent, in the middle of nature, ideal for walks and unwind. At the same time, there is plenty to do nearby: nice villages, beautiful routes and activities for everyone. Definitely recommended, we will happy to come back!

We spent 4 nights over Easter in Rudi‘s cottage and throughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is very bright and clean with a comfy bed. and sofa, a great shower and excellent lighting (this is something that I often miss in hotel rooms). The view from the terrace is outstanding. We were lucky with the weather and spent many hours there after cycling in the area or visiting nearby Utrecht. Rudi is a very friendly person, always smiling, giving us recommendations etc. Would re-visit anytime. Thank you, Rudi - also for the delicious welcome-cake!

Anna's house is a gem! It all looks exactly like the photos and my fiancé and I had a wonderful time there. Everything was very lovingly prepared when we arrived, chocolate and sparkling wine were already waiting for us. The facility is simply fantastic and the two cattle are incredibly cute and curious. We will be happy to come back!

Edam is a great place where you can easily get everything you need on foot. It has lots of great restaurants in walking distance and everywhere has picturesque canals and waterways. Super friendly and relaxed home with top class amenities. Perfect for a family .

We felt very comfortable with Lonneke! Everything was as described in the photos. I also loved that she always responded quickly to my messages and questions. The place was clean and well furnished so that nothing was missing. The location is very great and very easily accessible by bus from Amsterdam and you are in the center in a good 15 minutes! If you want to have peace and quiet after the hustle and bustle of the city, I highly recommend this place! Simply super nice location and super hosts! Thank you for the great time and for your hospitality! I'd love to come back when I'm in Amsterdam again. Everything was great!

Angelique is a super host, very responsive and on hand if you need anything answered or help with directions etc. I have not encountered a better air bnb host :-) The water cottage is peaceful and restful and has everything you need. For Amsterdam you must be either prepared to drive or happy to walk just over 1.3 miles into the town. Its a 45 min bus into Amsterdam which is pretty regular or you can drive 15 mins to a train station and make your way in from there. We had no problem with this at all but some might be put off. However the location and quiet peace by the water was super and worth it!

We spent a great day there! Everything looks even better than on the pictures. The house and surroundings are really cozy and peaceful, good for walks or relaxing cycling. We met a beautiful sunset on the terrace (feels private!) and had a nice breakfast (kitchen is fully equipped). We stayed there in the middle of March, when it wasn’t so warm outside, but inside the house it was nice and warm (you can use an air conditioner for hitting and it works absolutely fine). The host is friendly and proactive — all our questions were addressed even before we asked it 😁
