About this house rental
Haus Fridhem is located in the historic village of Härlöv. The house has been completely renovated in keeping with the 1920s style, while still offering all modern comforts. Haus Fridhem is located 50 meters from Lake Furen. On the Fridhems property (2,000 m²), there is also Fridhem 2 (property ID 543221).. These two houses can accommodate 20 people.
We have a private dock on the beach, where you’ll also find a boat and a canoe. You can swim from the dock and at the beach. If you have young children, this is a safe place for them to swim. The Fridhem house is very beautiful. From the terrace, you have a fantastic view of Lake Furen. You can, of course, fish in this lake. You’ll find perch, zander, pike, trout, eel, and crayfish there. In Härlöv, you’ll also find forests with numerous hiking trails. You can easily find berries and mushrooms, and the rich wildlife—including moose, deer, lynx, hares, wild boars, and roe deer—invites you to observe it.
Fishing, swimming, and sauna: Lake FurenSee is particularly rich in fish, and in addition to the abundance found in all Swedish waters, pike, perch, eel, and whitefish are among the zander populations. The season runs year-round, with highlights in April, May, September, and October. In winter, ice fishing through holes drilled in the ice is very popular.
Our large boat and swimming dock serve as the hub, starting point, and finishing point for water activities. Right next to the sauna, you can relax, unwind, and take a dip in the lake.
For golf enthusiasts: Golf: You can play golf at the Alvesta Golf Club in Moheda (7 km). You can also play at the Växjö Golf Club (15 km) and the Värnamo Golf Club (50 km).
What our guests say: The house is lovingly furnished and has plenty of charm.
The garden is spacious and borders the lake.
It’s located on a private beach, so you can enjoy absolute peace and quiet. We went out every day on the lake in the canoe and rowboat, where we caught plenty of fish.
The owner, Lars, is very friendly, helpful, and always ready with advice. He speaks German very well.
The proximity to Alvesta and Växjö is also excellent. The Härlöv area, with its meadows, fields, and forests, is very beautiful.

As a family of 7 visiting from the USA we very much enjoyed our stay in this cottage on the lake! The view was beautiful! Accommodations for our family were perfect! We enjoyed making family meals in the great kitchen and gathering around the large family table. The bedrooms were perfect, and the sauna was amazing! We were in town to cheer on the USA National Bandy Team and the location from Harlov to the arena was great! Thank you, Lars, for coming by and joining us for coffee. We really enjoyed learning all about Sweden from you! - The Wynne Family

Ein sehr gemütliches Haus an einem schönen See. Bis auf ein paar Kleinigkeiten in Sachen Sauberkeit gibt es nichts zu beanstanden!

Our time at the lake house was pleasant enough. We were a group of 11 (3 adults, 8 kids). The property and the lake are beautiful. The yard is well manicured. Our kids loved the electronic piano! And the house was very affordable. As an American, there were things we didn’t know were common and weren’t stated in the VRBO listing. For instance, we were told on arrival day that we needed to provide our own linens and towels. We obviously did not have linens and towels. We were told we could rent them for 15/person. We also didn’t realize we needed to rent the life jackets. There was only 1 full roll of toilet paper at the house and when I asked I was told we had to provide our own.The cleaning procedures at the end of our stay were more involved than any American VRBO we’ve rented. Beyond stripping the beds and taking out the garbage, we needed to vacuum and mop, scrub toilets inside and out, wipe out the fridge, oven, and microwave, and even vacuum the mattresses. The owner of the home had to come and approve our cleaning before we left.Our biggest complaint is that one of the bunk beds collapsed on our last night. It was being held together with zip ties. Fortunately my nephew on the bottom bunk wasn’t badly injured. Just a scratch on his face. But there wasn’t even an apology when we told Lars.Overall, I think we got what we payed for as this was a very affordable VRBO for 11 people. But we wouldn’t stay again.
