Close to birdwatching, cycling, and more, this pet-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 3-minute drive to Lower Saxony Wadden Sea National Park or the 4-minute drive to Dog Beach (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

A BBQ grill and a fireplace are featured at this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom rental. Connect to the free WiFi, or get cozy in front of the cable/satellite TV; there's also a DVD player and a stereo. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, a microwave, and cookware. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too. Other amenities include an ironing board, a phone, heating, and a dining table.
