The house is in a wonderful spot by the lake. The location is extremely quiet and relaxing. The house has everything you need on a vacation.
A trip by boat from the house is highly recommended. If you love the sauna, you can use it directly in the neighboring building.
The hosts are very friendly, uncomplicated and communicate quickly if something is pending.
The price-performance ratio is ok but for us it shouldn't be more.
The shops are within 10 minutes by car in Boxholm.
If we are drawn to this area again, we would come back.
Thank you for everything that was wonderful.

The lake is very nice, the location is very nice and the host is very polite.
We came with our own 2 fishing boats in a group of 4. The host was unable to help with the exact location of the public slip and we had to search for it ourselves. On the top, unfortunately, the quay is not suitable for mooring two boats, and there are no mooring buoys.
The house is large, with a large number of places to sleep, but a small boiler is not adapted to serve such a number of people. Four people could not shower one after the other because a too small boiler could not provide that much hot water. If we add to this the lack of a dishwasher and washing the dishes by hand with cold water, it becomes uncomfortable.
My overall assessment is good, this place is close to being great, but it's not yet.
