## Neighborhood
De house boat is located in harbour 'De Oude Werf', just 15 min. walking from the center of Aalsmeer and a large supermarket. You will be staying next to a large lake area where you can swim, kayak, and experience many other water sport activities. The banks of the lake are riddles with harbour areas, bars/restaurants with terraces and recreation areas.
Aalsmeer is an old eel fishing town on the banks of the Westeinderplassen. With a rich history it is now a characteristic town with lovely lake views from the marinas. The town has a small but fun center where you can go to shop or to enjoy a drink in the town harbour. There is an outdoor market every Tuesday. Also to be found in Aalsmeer: a casino, horti-culture and flower art museum and a number of great restaurants. Not to forget; the biggest flower (tulips!) auction of the country, which is still functional.
Do you want to discover the lake? You are free to use our 2 kayaks and 2 Stand Up Paddleboards with paddle! You can access the lake from our area within minutes. The kayaks/SUPs are made available from May until October. Using them is at your own risk. Damages (to the kayak, SUP, or to personal items) are your own responsibility and using the kayaks/SUPs during bad weather conditions (heavy wind, rain, or thunder) is forbidden.
The interconnected lakes have a total area of over 10km2 and exist of one large lake, one smaller lake and hundreds of small islands within them. It's a great experience to navigate the lakes and small waterways that connect them and the islands.
## Transit
Aalsmeer is only a 15 minute drive from Schiphol Airport and by train and bus it will take you about 20. In general, public transport will get you around quite well. We will share a handy website to plan your route!
