Houseboat Refugio - 4 persons

Wake up on the water in Houseboat Refugio, a stylish floating holiday home in the scenic harbor of Lemmer. This modern houseboat offers space for up to 4 guests and is perfect if you’re looking for something a little different from a standard holiday cottage.

Inside, you’ll find a bright, tastefully decorated living room where you can relax after a day by the water. The sleek open kitchen is fully equipped, including a dishwasher, so you can easily prepare breakfast, a simple lunch or a cosy dinner on board. There are two comfortable bedrooms: one with a double bed and one with a single bed plus a loft bed – ideal for couples, friends or a small family.

The contemporary bathroom comes with a shower, washbasin and toilet, so you have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Step through the door onto your private terrace and enjoy the gentle sway of the harbor. It’s the perfect spot for your first coffee of the day, a sundowner drink or a quiet evening watching the boats pass by. Pets and smoking are not allowed, and the boat stays moored during your entire stay, so you can enjoy all the charm of life on the water without having to sail.

From Houseboat Refugio, you can explore lively Lemmer on foot. Within 500 meters you’ll reach Lemmer Beach, where you can sunbathe on the sand or take a refreshing swim. The historic village center (600 m) is full of charming streets, local boutiques, cosy cafés and restaurants with terraces overlooking the harbor.

If you love culture and history, make sure to visit the UNESCO World Heritage Woudagemaal, the impressive steam-powered pumping station just 2 km away. In August, Skûtsjesilen brings the village to life with a spectacular traditional sailing regatta that shows the true nautical spirit of Friesland.

Whether you’re dreaming of a peaceful getaway, a romantic weekend on the water or quality time with your family, Houseboat Refugio combines comfort, character and a unique harbor setting – with the water literally at your doorstep.
