Levke Vacation Home—Comfort and Peace Amid Nature—Plenty of Space for Families

A wonderfully peaceful and comfortable vacation home on the edge of the Mecklenburg Lake District. The six beds in three bedrooms make it suitable for larger families—and thanks to a travel crib and high chair, an additional small child is also welcome.
Together with the other half of the duplex, called Levke, you can even increase the occupancy to 12 adults if desired, allowing you to accommodate various group configurations. Otherwise, however, you’ll hardly notice the other half thanks to the well-designed separation between the two—only the large garden and the sauna house are intended for shared use by both halves of the house.
The house is a modern, Scandinavian-style wooden home with an excellent indoor climate. Underfloor heating (powered by geothermal energy/heat pump) keeps the house pleasantly warm on cool days (and even cools it on hot days). And for added coziness, there’s a beautiful fireplace at your disposal.
The central, open, and light-filled living area consists of a spacious seating area and a dining area, flowing seamlessly into the kitchen. The seating area offers comfortable, high-quality seating for everyone and plenty of entertainment options, including an LED TV, soundbar, DVD/Blu-ray player, and a separate Bluetooth hi-fi speaker. Here you’ll also find games, reading material, and a wealth of information about the surrounding area.
In the kitchen, we’ve made sure to provide a complete set of high-quality appliances so you can happily cook for even a larger family. An oven, a 4-burner ceramic cooktop, a microwave, a kettle, and a filter coffee maker are all available.
The bathroom features high-quality tiling and, in addition to a walk-in rain shower, includes a bathtub with an optional whirlpool function. There is also a separate restroom in the entryway.
Through the large south-facing window, you can look out onto your private patio and the lush green garden. On the partially covered patio, you’ll find a large garden table and garden chairs with cushions. In the stone outdoor oven, you can grill or simply enjoy a cozy campfire.
From here, you can step out into the spacious, securely fenced-in garden. Near the house, you can sit or lie back comfortably; the lower area is particularly well-suited for play, for example with the children’s toys and soccer goals provided, or on the jungle gym. The sauna house also offers additional seating. And, of course, a sauna for your exclusive use. (As mentioned earlier, the sauna and garden may also be available to guests staying in the other half of the vacation home.)
With 72 square meters, there’s plenty of living space for everyone, and right next to the house on the street side, there are two spacious parking spaces (one per half of the house). In the lockable courtyard, you can store bicycles or other equipment safely, with partial cover.
The vacation home is situated in a quiet location on the outskirts of the village and offers direct access to the regional network of hiking and biking trails. In addition, the Bärenpfad (Bear Trail), along which the house is located, leads to the eponymous “Bärenwald” (Bear Forest) in Müritz, which provides a new home for rescued brown bears and is a worthwhile, nationally renowned destination—especially for families.
In the old village center, you’ll still find the charming medieval church and the parsonage. A five-minute walk takes you to Stuerschen Lake, a restored wetland area that is highly prized by both native and migratory bird species. The path continues to the hidden, historic castle ruins, featuring a mysteriously crumbling yet still recognizable main tower.
Plau am See is just under 13 km away; it offers all basic amenities and a few nice restaurants and cafés, and you can also access Lake Plau from here. The nearest swimming spot is at the southern end of Lake Plau (Stuer Bad), a 2.7 km walk—about half an hour—or a five-minute drive away.
Within a wider radius, the Müritz region—with its main town, Waren—and the entire Mecklenburg Lake District are ideal for day trips. For trips toward the Baltic Sea, the A19 highway provides excellent access. In short, there’s endless potential for excursions into the countryside and out into the open.
