Close to cross-country skiing, fishing, and more, this family-friendly apartment brings it all within reach. Thanks to the convenient onsite parking, you can either leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 10-minute walk to Samson Pit, or easily tackle the quick 2-minute drive to Harz National Park.

A BBQ grill and a desk are featured at this 1-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom rental. Try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, cable/satellite TV, and stereo. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer and towels. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, cookware, and a toaster. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities include bed sheets, an ironing board, heating, and wardrobe or closet.
