Vacation rental on the shores of a private lake, surrounded by nature in Ketzin, near Berlin

You'll be renting a unique property all to yourself!

There are two buildings, located just under 20 meters apart. The white main bungalow contains all the main amenities: bathroom, kitchen, bedroom (2 beds), and a living room with TV and Wi-Fi. The log cabin next door features a large room with a double bed and an attached small restroom with a sink (hot/cold water). As such, the property is designed to accommodate a maximum of 4 guests; an extra bed is available on-site only for one small child (travel crib for children up to 3 years old).


The main bungalow is situated on a 1.3-hectare lake, just 5 meters from the beach. From the covered terrace, you look directly out onto the lake’s water; the only other view is of a small, old villa about 150 meters away, hidden behind trees, and to the right of your solid-construction bungalow, the log cabin serving as the second sleeping area (with TV, guest restroom, and sink...)

You’re on the outskirts of the Havelland town of Ketzin (in the Brückenkopf district) within a bird sanctuary that borders the Havel River, its tributaries, and small canals. Many bird species—some of them rare—are native to this area and can almost always be seen in action.
To find your way here, please (!!!) use the location marked on the map in Google Maps.....

Ketzin itself is located about 12 kilometers from Berlin’s western highway loop (A10)—the city centers of Berlin and Potsdam are about 25 km away (toward the northeast)—with all their sights and events.

You’ll spend your vacation (bookable from Saturday to Saturday for 1 week or more) at a hidden gem that has recently undergone extensive modernization and upgrades and will be available on the market for the first time starting in June/July 2024. Since the lake (part of which, approximately 6,500 m², belongs to the property), you’ll have a total of over 7,000 m² all to yourselves—without any disruptive neighbors!
Here, you can swim, fish, barbecue, party, play darts and table tennis, enjoy a campfire, or simply unwind and slow down.
For children, the surrounding area offers unique inspiration and pure adventure fun!

Four-legged family members are also welcome, provided you can show proof of appropriate dog liability insurance. Please also note that additional costs for final cleaning may apply in some cases.

The small but very well-equipped kitchen offers everything you need to shine at the perfect dinner!
Amenities: Induction stove, oven, refrigerator + freezer, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine (in the bathroom),
deep fryer, 2 coffee machines (classic filter + Nespresso)

The outdoor pavilion to the left of the bungalow is weatherproof and offers a shaded retreat—equipped with a full mosquito net and/or curtains... View: the lake!... There is also a second refrigerator for beverages

If you’d like to go fishing, please familiarize yourself with the current fishing laws of the state of Brandenburg.

Due to the lack of intensive fishing, the lake itself boasts an exceptionally good population of whitefish (carp, tench, bream, roach, rudd, and rudd-perch), as well as predatory fish (zander, pike, catfish, perch, eel, and asp)

--> however, we expressly do not advertise a guaranteed catch quota here!

The table tennis table and dartboard provided are, of course, welcome to be used as much as you like. Accessories such as paddles, darts, and balls are provided. Additionally, an approx. 5-meter-long rowboat (for 4 people) is available for your use.

To ensure comfort even during the colder months of the year, both accommodations (the bungalow and the log cabin) are equipped with electronic floor heating. This allows you to heat the rooms to a comfortable temperature—just as you’re used to at home—while you clean your harvest from the nearby mushroom forests, if desired.
