It was wonderful and quieter than we expected. The landlord was very nice and speaks a little German, including a few phrases. I can also confirm his helpfulness. Another thing worth mentioning: The stairs to the upper floor are a bit steep, and you can't walk into the water like you would on a beach. But swimming is still really fun. And there's water in the second cottage, too, albeit cold. Of course, you have to like the furnishings, but it was incredibly comfortable, and we had a fantastic vacation.
