Östra Ämtervik Vacation Rentals

"The staff and the breakfast were wonderful. Although the self check in was new for me, there was an attendant available who was very helpful. The parking was not obvious at all, and the pay station did not accept my North American credit card, she pointed me to some free parking close by. Also in the morning she was extremely helpful with a personal situation. The property is outside of town, however close to many trails, and right beside the river. It was a very cost effective choice for us. The breakfast was fantastic, great food options - the health juice shots were a pleasant surprise and the coffee was amazing. Plus the view of the hockey rink was not expected and very nice touch for us Canadians!"

"The property is down a short track with two other properties. These are well spaced out and grounds cleverly divided with trees and bushes to form private areas. The grounds slope down to the lake which is a couple of minutes walk and has a small boat dock. If you hire a boat you have a key for the boat padlock, battery and tiller. There are lots of trees and the road is not at all busy so it is very quiet and relaxing. Grasmark a couple of miles north has a small supermarket and single petrol pump, Sunne is about 20 mins SE with a big supermarket, shop to buy alcohol and a great fishing shop. Down by the lake is a seating area, trampoline (which our kids loved) and play park items. The house has bbq, games, frisbees, badminton net & rackets, two bikes and a couple of fishing rods (all of this in mixed condition). As the property is off a long road we found you were either in the grounds or driving elsewhere to do things (brilliant beach at top end of lake). The house is really well equipped and the instructions for the house are clear, do read them early on! It is clean and well maintained but like all VRBO properties cumulative annual wear means some limited mould around showers, marks on walls and little bits of damage here and there. One key point is you need to bring your own sheets and towels, or arrange in advance for this service which I think costs €20 pp. We missed this but were saved by Christiane, thank you. "
