House

Close to sledding, cross-country skiing, and more, this family-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 31-minute drive to Teutoburg Forest-Egge Hills Nature Park or the 4-minute drive to Weser Uplands-Schaumburg-Hamelin Nature Park (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return to this 786-sq-ft vacation home, unwind in the garden or sip a drink on the deck or patio, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi and cable/satellite TV.

This 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental features a living room, a sofa bed, a BBQ grill, and a fireplace. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, toilet paper, and soap. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And there's access to laundry facilities, so you can even pack a bit lighter.
