Measuring 15 metres long and 6 metres wide, it offers approximately 84 m² of living space, excluding the roof terrace. The bright living room and open kitchen span 25 m² and feature three large sliding doors, bringing in plenty of natural light and offering beautiful views of the surroundings.

The spacious living area features a comfortable sofa, dining table, TV and sliding doors leading to the front terrace, where outdoor chairs invite you to sit back and relax. The open-plan kitchen is fully equipped with an induction hob, refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, kettle and Nespresso coffee machine. A separate utility room also contains a freezer.

For added comfort, the houseboat is equipped with a pellet heater. At the start of every booking, a full pellet heater and one bag of pellets are provided. Additional bags of pellets can be purchased for €10 per bag.

BEDROOMS & BATHROOM

The houseboat accommodates guests across three bedrooms. Two bedrooms feature specially designed Surla hotel beds measuring 180 × 200 cm, while the third bedroom has a bunk bed measuring 90 × 200 cm.

The bathroom includes a shower, washbasin and an ecological dry toilet. After a day spent enjoying the lake and its surroundings, you can also unwind under the warm outdoor shower on the rear terrace.

SPACIOUS ROOF TERRACE

An external staircase leads to the spacious roof terrace, complete with a lounge set. It is the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning, take in the surrounding landscape or watch the sun set over the water.

A SUSTAINABLE, OFF-GRID EXPERIENCE

Our houseboats are sustainably built and designed to be 100% self-sufficient. Onboard systems allow you to enjoy your stay without relying on shore power, while filtration systems provide fresh lake water without the need for conventional onboard water tanks.

As guests on the water, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact through thoughtful, ecological solutions. Please note that the filtered lake water is not suitable for drinking. Drinking water is provided for your first day.

SEASONAL LOCATION & HOUSEBOAT INFORMATION

From 1 October to 31 March, the houseboat is docked at the marina of Resort Kagerplassen. During this winter period, the houseboat remains in the marina and cannot be taken out onto the open water. A tender or dinghy is not included, and check-in is via self-check-in at the marina.

From 1 April onwards, the houseboat returns to its mooring location on the lake. A dinghy is included during this period, and Surla arranges the houseboat`s mooring, subject to weather conditions. Please note that sailing the houseboat yourself is not permitted.

GUEST ACCESS

The entire houseboat is exclusively yours during your stay. Enjoy the privacy of your own floating retreat, with indoor and outdoor spaces designed for relaxing and spending quality time together.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

No parties or events are permitted.

Guests are not allowed to sail the houseboat themselves. Any fines resulting from violations are the guest`s responsibility.

The houseboat is not suitable for small children. Swimming certificates and/or life jackets are strongly recommended.

Due to access and mobility considerations, the houseboat is not recommended for guests with mobility difficulties.

As the houseboat is surrounded by nature, you may encounter spiders, mosquitoes and other insects.

The exact location, floor plan and interior may vary from the photographs, as Surla operates several houseboats at different locations. All our houseboats were built between 2022 and 2023.
