About this property

In a private property, at the edge of a pond, come and relax in our ecogite. You can enjoy the calm of the forest safely in a luxury chalet. You can relax on the terrace at the water's edge to admire the carp, under the foliage of the high Vosges fir trees, in the sun to make your barbecue or at night in our Norwegian kota, with sauna over a wood fire.
We mainly host families, because the property has a real room, and two convertible sofas (and a small kid's corner castor for children).

Jolie gîte calme dans la fôret

Nous avons passé une super semaine dans la gîte de Carine et Philippe. Si vous aimez être loin de tout et dans la nature mais quand même proche d'une ville that's the place to be !

Calme et reposant

La maison a la qualité d'être isolée tout en etant très proche de commerces . Nous avons passés un très bon séjour au calme dans un chalet tres spacieux pour deux. Le petit lac est entièrement privatisé pour la location et entouré d'une forêt qui vaut la peine de s'y promener, avec de belles couleurs ! L'idée d'écogite a été poussée à son apogée avec la panne du generateur les deux dernières nuits . Attention donc si vous voyagez en automne ou hiver, l'énergie produite est loin d'être suffisante pour une basse consommation pour deux personnes .

Lovely quiet cottage

The stay was beautifuy and calm. The area around the cottage is quiet but easily accessible (1h walk from the train station or 10m by cab). The landlords are very friendly and accommodating. We rented MTBs and have driven some of the numerous and well-marked routes in the area. Overall a very nice stay, happy to return.

Nice quiet place in the woods at a privat lake

Very nice Cabin with sauna at a privat lake. There are good walking trails and Épinal is a short distance away. The kingfishers and the Blue Herons are your fishing neighbors. In the lake at the cabine are big carps and chubs. At knight you can hear owls and foxes. Just the right place for nature lovers.
