Vanessa

Hi, I'm Vanessa and I'm 39 years old. I live with my two children, my parents and our two dogs in our little paradise in the middle of East Frisia. I love being a hostess and sharing this enchanting place with people who love nature, peace and quiet as much as I do.

  • Youโ€™ll be sharing this beautiful lakeside campsite with two geese and their four adorable goslings, as well as two fluffy ducks, four chickens, and their proud rooster. The area is perfect for cycling, or you can take a quick trip to the North Sea. You can go shopping in Detern and dispose of waste at the campsite next door. We were welcomed by Vanessaโ€™s friendly parents, who helped us right away when we realized we were out of gas. Weโ€™ll definitely be back, and weโ€™ll bring better weather with us next time.

    We stayed with Vanessa at the lake and spontaneously booked for one night. We heard back quickly and were able to camp by the lake the same evening. It was fantastic! The lake and nature were simply beautiful ๐Ÿคฉ. It's very quiet, the only thing you can hear is nature and the animals in the water. ๐Ÿฅฐ We would love to come back!

    We were warmly welcomed by Vanessa's father and the pitch is wonderful right on the lake. We had two wonderfully relaxing days with long walks and lots of peace and quiet. Fresh eggs were also brought to us. We would love to come back. Best regards Frank and Kerstin

    We had a great time at this wonderful place! The location directly on its own lake is simply a dream - absolute tranquillity and great nature like something out of a picture book. Perfect for switching off, slowing down and simply clearing your head. We will definitely be back - thank you so much for this little oasis in East Frisia!

    An absolute insider tip for anyone who loves peace and nature! The pitch is idyllically situated by the lake, which you have almost to yourself - ideal for relaxing and unwinding. The hosts are incredibly friendly and helpful, making you feel welcome straight away. The surrounding nature invites you to go on long bike rides on beautiful and well-maintained cycle paths. If you are looking for pure relaxation, this is the place for you. We will definitely be back!

    The pitch on the lake was really great, as described all alone, in the middle of nature. Right by the lake. Unfortunately we didn't get to meet Vanessa. But her husband showed us everything on arrival. It was a great vacation.

    Booked for friends of ours - here is their feedback: We had a very pleasant stay in Vanessa's lovingly furnished cottage, where nothing was missing. A wonderful place to get away from it all in the middle of nature and enjoy the beautiful landscape of East Frisia. A special place, a particularly nice hostess - we felt very comfortable.

    Hello Vanessa , you we have unfortunately not met, but your dear nice mother . Thank you Miriam for everything. The place you have created for your guests is really good. The water was clean and despite days before only rain read you the place well to drive and camp. We could hang our hammock on and relax on the shore , in the evening at the fireplace , make a campfire and drive with your stand up left the lake , also for this thank you again . A super good idea is also the discarded bus, which was shunted to the self-service store around .Top The area is typical East Frisian , simply beautiful . A small deduction was's , there you can but nothing for it, depending on how the wind stands. Hear times the federal road / highway clearly , since we had bad luck on the 1st day , then we were lucky with the wind. We can recommend this place with a clear conscience.

Everyone here is super nice and friendly ๐Ÿค— such a place is unique. With campfire in the evening and view of the lake. Anyone who has been here before "must" practically fall in love! Vanessa is a very warm and absolutely helpful hostess. Her parents are also absolute heart people. ๐Ÿ˜Š if we could we would give 10 stars! Love greetings Micha & Sandra ๐Ÿค—

  • Katja

    May 2022

    A dream! - EVERYTHING ... - Where to begin. We were warmly welcomed and escorted to this incredible pitch on the lake (YES!!! DIRECTLY on the lake!!!). The warm welcome and briefing, and the opportunity to stand there alone, had us hooked from the first second. On one side the lake, on the other side the far view over a huge field... and then the evenings at the campfire overlooking the lake (dear thanks for the firewood๐Ÿคฉ): It was fantastic days with you. THANK YOU to Myrijam, Vanessa and Erwin: You are top. Carlo and Lenny, of course, too ๐Ÿ˜„ We are already looking forward to seeing you again soon! We definitely need to get 2 elephant thigh bones for the two picture perfect lap dogs by then, the old rascals! We love them! Best wishes to you lovely people and see you soon!

    The place is very nice. With west wind you can hear a little the distant road - we still had a restful night. We especially liked the possibility of camping fire and in the morning the view of the lake at sunrise - dreamlike.

    The place is beautiful, Vanessa is very sympathetic and helpful. Big plus for the usable toilet, we would not have expected at all! Two tips for those interested: ideal way to stretch a hammock between the trees and drive-up wedges can help level the uneven ground :)
