In Friesland, you go on the water

If the name of the park literally means "between the lakes," then you know you won't escape the water. The recreation park is situated on the Meine Sleat, which forms a connection between the Sneekermeer and the Pikmeer. It is possible to rent a sloop or motorboat at Tusken de Marren to explore Friesland's water paradise. The Sneekermeer is one of the most famous lakes in Friesland. There is plenty of water fun to be had here, especially in the summer months. Learn to water ski or sail, go supping or canoeing and of course, you can always take a refreshing dip. And are you staying at Glamping in Friesland in August? Then take a look at the 'Sneekweek', Europe's largest inland water sailing event.

    Wir waren zufrieden, Gartenmöbel etwas ungepflegt, Haus war nicht fertig zur vereinbarten Zeit und auch nicht wirklich sauber. Die Lage ist traumhaft. Der Park gepflegt und der Service freundlich.

    🏡 Review: Tusken de Marren – Tussen rommel en rust ⭐ 3,5 sterren – Een vakantiehuisje met karakter (en kruimels) Bij aankomst werden we hartelijk begroet… door een volle vuilnisbak, een asbak die nog nagenoot van vorige gasten, én – jawel – twee half aangegeten Snickerrepen op de wasmachine. Een soort welkomstsnack? Of een culinair raadsel? We hebben ze laten liggen, uit respect voor hun mysterieuze oorsprong. Het servies stond al klaar in de kast – vies, welteverstaan. Alsof het huisje dacht: "Doe maar alsof je thuis bent, inclusief afwas." De vaatwasser was nog niet uitgepakt, wat ons meteen een activiteit gaf voor dag één. Vakantie is tenslotte ook een beetje werken, toch? En dan de grootste schok: geen wijnglazen. Nul. Nada. Alsof het huisje dacht: "Jullie zijn hier om te ontspannen, niet om te genieten." Gelukkig hadden we zelf een paar erg goede flessen witte wijn meegenomen. Die smaakten verrassend goed uit een waterglas – al had een elegant glas de ervaring nét dat beetje extra gegeven. ’s Nachts werd de rust soms ruw verstoord door kinderen die enthousiast aan het belletje lellen waren. Sommige mensen schrokken zich een hoedje. Ik? Ik sliep gewoon door. Misschien had die witte wijn toch meer ontspannende werking dan gedacht. Maar dan: de ligging! Onze boot lag trots voor de deur te dobberen alsof hij wist dat hij op een A-locatie lag. De terraszon was heerlijk, het weer werkte mee, en de zwemtrap bood toegang tot verkoelend water én een spontane aquarobics-sessie. De boothelling in de buurt was een zegen, en de gratis poepzakjes gaven blijk van een gastvrije houding richting viervoeters én hun menselijke opruimplicht. Conclusie: Tusken de Marren is een plek waar je kunt genieten van waterpret, zon en bootgemak – mits je bereid bent om eerst een kleine schoonmaakmissie te ondernemen. Het huisje heeft charme, maar ook een beetje een kater van de vorige gasten. Neem een vaatdoek mee, een glimlach, je eigen wijnglazen – en laat die Snickers maar liggen.

    Een heel mooi plekje aan het water gehad nr 84. Van te voren ook zo geboekt via de website. Huisje was netjes. Wat ik vooraf al las in de reviews dat het best warm kan zijn. Dat klopt inderdaad, als de zon even schijnt warmt de woning erg snel op. We hadden het geluk dat het savonds snel af koelde en het flink waaide. Dit is waar de eigenaar nog even naar kijken mag voor een passende oplossing. Verder erg tevreden over het verblijf van vier dagen op dit park. Snelle service en vriendelijk personeel. Echte aanrader!!
