Gästehaus Glaisin - The house on the edge of the forest
We had a wonderful weekend as a family at Gesa's place! The kids had a wonderful time in the playroom, also the garden was a dream. Communication was also always great, thank you so much!

Luxurious house, Barrel-Sauna, Beautiful nature
We all liked Andres' apartment. We were there with 8 adults and 2 young children. That was a great fit. The area is beautiful, but even in bad weather you can enjoy playing pool or using the sauna. Communication with André was great and he is very accommodating We would book the apartment again

Jay‘s Wellness Landhaus
It was a great weekend at Jay's place! There were six of us at Jay's Wellness country house and we lacked nothing. In the kitchen there is every electric device that you also have at home, as well as dishwasher, dish towels, etc. In the bathroom you will find the bathtub with hot tub, a large shower and towels of all sizes. Each bedroom has a large bed, partly with electric shutters and a variety of infusions are available for the sauna. Due to the various seating options outside under the awning, under the new pergola or directly by the pond, variety was guaranteed. In addition, there were 2 outdoor hammocks, which provided relaxation. Jay is a very likeable young host who responds to the wishes of her guests. The whole house is furnished with a lot of love for detail and there are even enough blankets available for cool evenings. We felt very comfortable with Jay, will definitely come back and say THANK YOU

Bungalow between forest sounds and birdsong
We had some wonderful days at Anke & Gerd's place. It was nice quiet and a cozy home. We were well received upon arrival.

Forest hut by the lake - glamping
The cottage was wonderful for a little time out in the countryside. We were warmly welcomed! Even in very changeable weather, we were able to relax, walk and read by the fireplace. We are super happy!

Gerberhof apartment Lotta with natural swimming pond
This Airbnb is located on a beautiful estate. Upon arrival, we were immediately welcomed by a donkey and her calf that was waiting for us in the garden. In addition, you can also spot an abundance of hares, and all this from the comfort of your seat! Judith is a very thoughtful hostess, who is always ready for all your questions. In good weather, we'd love to come back to use the swimming pond. All in all, this is a top location that we can recommend to everyone.

Haus am See @mollbue
It was really great! We felt right at home The house is just as beautiful as in the photos, just like the swimming lake. It was too cold for us to swim, but our children were very happy about the sandbox things of the house and so we could still enjoy the lake for hours. In addition, the location was great - for those with a car. In about 15 minutes we have achieved so much: Jaderpark, supermarket, Oldenburg, etc.

LANDzeit 'S' - your time out in the middle of the Kellerwald
I found the accommodation as described and felt comfortable right away. Very modern, lots of light, very tastefully decorated. You have everything you need without unnecessary bells and whistles. On the terrace, I was greeted directly and friendly by a cat and the view of the countryside is unbeatable. I found a very clean bathroom and a very tidy sleeping area, and the kitchen was also in order except for minor details. All in all, I was very satisfied. Thank you :)

Mono im Teuto
A unique location to escape everyday life. I didn't have mobile data coverage, but that was actually nice. The cottage is beautiful with lots of creative details, and the area is wonderful for hiking. Highly recommended!

Waldhaus Bornmühle / Mecklenburg Lake District
Everything was great. A nice, quiet place in nature. The jetty, which can be reached on foot in 5 minutes, is a dream.

Altes Eishaus am See, Sauna, Kamin, Kanu, SUP,Boot
Kirsten's place is beautiful. Nature is also fabulous and offers many possibilities on the water through the connected lakes and the Warnow. We felt at home and are thrilled with the elaborately and lovingly renovated and furnished Eishaus. In addition, we could see wild geese and a beaver right outside the door. And in the evening, there is a real concert of nature! It is also excellent that you could use the canoe, the boat and the SUP!!! Kirsten is a very nice hostess. Would happily come again.
Your guide to Germany
Welcome to Germany
Germany might just be the best place to orient yourself to central Europe's varied terrains: Its borders are flanked by vertiginous Alps, brilliant lakes, and dune-ribbed beaches. Off the northernmost tip, the Frisian Islands form a dreamy 24-mile long archipelago, with the island of Sylt shining as a popular choice for a ritzy getaway. Down south, the Romantic Road winds through Bavaria’s historic walled towns, Romanesque villages, and mountainous landscape. This rugged region is also synonymous with popular festivals like Oktoberfest. In the country’s interior, the scenery softens into idyllic valleys, plains dotted with farmhouses, and meditative forests. But it’s German cities like Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt that offer a steady pulse of culture. The country still hums with activity throughout the winter season when the snow-capped mountains change from a hiker's paradise to a base for skiing. The famous Christmas markets that spring up across most towns and cities in Germany offer mulled wine, traditional sweets, and handmade crafts.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Germany
With the weather at its finest and festivals galore, summer is the perfect time to stay in one of Germany’s vacation rentals. Travelers take advantage of the long sunny days to hike and swim amid the glorious landscape and linger in the country’s iconic beer gardens. From December through early January, Germany transforms into a winter wonderland with famed Christmas markets lighting up nearly every city and village, set against a backdrop of pristine snow. This is also a great time to visit for winter sports enthusiasts — especially if skiing in Alp towns like Oberstdorf is on your bucket list. Although summer is considered peak travel season, fall and winter are also popular times to visit. For smaller crowds, visit during spring and autumn, when you’ll find festivals and wine harvest taking place in smaller towns and villages.
Top things to do in Germany
Bavaria
Bavaria’s countryside boasts a trove of natural wonders. Bavarian Forest National Park, the country’s first national park, is home to 14,000 wildlife species, including the endangered lynx, Ural owl, and capercaillie. The shorelines of Lake Constance’s sparkling cyan waters touch Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, making the lake a hotspot for swimmers and sailors from all three countries. The setting for all this: The Bavarian Alps and Danube plains, which are dotted with storybook castles fit for a fairytale.
Neuschwanstein Castle
Originally a retreat for King Ludwig II, this 19th-century castle is now one of Europe’s most-visited citadels. A mix of Romanesque and Byzantine architecture, it is inspired by castles and cathedrals of the king’s childhood. Inside, discreet passageways and grand hallways lead to gilded rooms and skyscraping watchtowers.
Museum Island
Museum Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Berlin’s most popular stops. Here, five world-class museums were built over the course of centuries. The Altes Museum was designed by one of Prussia’s most prominent architects, the Pergamon Museum houses a coveted collection of Greek and Roman antiquities, and the Bode Museum is known for its 19th sculpture collection.
