Welcome to your stay

This two floored houseboat is located in the lovely village of Nederhorst Den Berg, 25 min. from Amsterdam. A floating home offering everything you might expect from a high-end villa, but then with the benefits of staying on the water. Watch the swans, ducks and geese swim by while you enjoy an unforgettable time with your beloved ones, very close to the cities of Amsterdam and Utrecht. 

The floating villa is best described as contemporary, light, warm and characteristic. You will feel all the love the owners have put into it, achieving their goal: strive for the ultimate houseboat experience.

Explore your stay

A huge and very well equipped modern kitchen is the heart of the houseboat, the perfect place to start another great day. It has a wood stove for chilly or colder periods. The living room has a comfortable couch and a fire place that ensures a great atmosphere - even during the coldest winter nights. And even without lighting the fire place the boat is comfortably warm all year round thanks to floor heating.

The boat offers 160 square meters, over two floors. The large windows create a very light and bright experience. On one side you will enjoy a wonderful view on the river and beautiful sunsets. On the other side there is a 900 sqm garden with several terraces, fruit trees, including a wonderful veranda with another wood stove and electric heaters. Besides the veranda, we also have a fully equipped tiny house, for one or two persons to sleep.

The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, with a bath, a rain shower, a double sink and a separate toilet. 

There are two more bedrooms and a separate bathroom with a rain shower, sink and toilet.  A third toilet is found at the entrance.   

In the extra room on the top floor, the white couch can be adjusted to a sleeping couch. 
For the two sleeping couches we have just bought two great top matrasses. 

In the village of Nederhorst den Berg you will find a super market, a bakery, butcher and flower shop. And two restaurants. Places nearby to do more extensive shopping are Weesp and Bussum. Amsterdam and Utrecht are only 20 - 25 minutes by car.

Staying in our house boat becomes more convenient having a car at your disposal. We do offer you several bikes. The nearest train station is found in Weesp, appr. 12 minutes by car. Included are several bikes. If you like and if you have experience to handle a long boat, it is possible to rent this boat and to enjoy the most beautiful river of the Netherlands.

The area is known for its beautiful nature, lots of water and little beaches, old mansions and woods to wander.   

We hope to have given you the best possible impression of our houseboat, but don't hesitate to contact us when you have any questions. We look forward to welcome you aboard!

 

Note: we welcome families with children, but their safety is always your responsibility. Staying on a houseboat simply means that there is always water nearby and we can not take any responsibility for the safety of your kids. So please be aware of this.

About the area

Waterside Heritage in Nederhorst den Berg

Nederhorst den Berg, a small village in the province of North Holland, is steeped in rural Dutch history shaped by water and peat landscapes. The historic centerpiece is Castle Nederhorst, a 17th century manor surrounded by a moat and manicured grounds that reflect the region’s long tradition of land reclamation and noble estates. The village church, Wilhelminakerk, adds to the quiet charm of the old center, where narrow roads, traditional farmhouses, and canals paint a picture of classic Holland beyond the bustle of Amsterdam.

Indoor Discoveries in North Holland

On cooler or rainy days, the wider region of North Holland offers a rich choice of indoor experiences. Nearby towns such as Weesp and Hilversum feature small museums dedicated to Dutch broadcasting history, local art, and regional heritage. Cozy cafés line the canals, inviting visitors to sample apple pie and strong Dutch coffee. For a broader cultural outing, Amsterdam is within easy reach, offering world class museums such as the Rijksmuseum and the Anne Frank House.

Outdoor Life Among Lakes and Polders

Nederhorst den Berg lies close to the Loosdrechtse Plassen, a renowned network of lakes that draws sailors, kayakers, and paddleboarders throughout the warmer months. Cycling and walking routes wind through green polders, across dikes, and along quiet waterways, offering expansive views of flat meadows and big Dutch skies. In spring and summer, the surrounding countryside bursts into color, and boat rentals provide an easy way to explore the interconnected lakes at a leisurely pace.

Wetland Wildlife and Birdwatching Havens

The watery landscapes around Nederhorst den Berg create an ideal habitat for birdlife and small mammals. Reed beds and marshy shores host herons, grebes, and cormorants, while migratory birds pass through during seasonal changes. The nearby nature reserves around the Vecht and the Loosdrecht lakes are popular with birdwatchers who come to observe rare species in tranquil surroundings. The combination of open water, peat bogs, and grassy meadows supports a diverse ecosystem that reflects the natural richness of North Holland.

    Beautiful stay

    We spent a beautiful time in this wonderful houseboat. It‘s absolutely perfect for larger families and an ideal starting point to spent visits to Amsterdam or to make bike tours. Also the tiny house and the big garden are really gorgeous!

    Simply amazing houseboat experience in nature

    We have been so lucky to stay on the boat of Jacqueline this February. The first warm sun beams were very welcome after a long winter, and reflected wonderfully, dancing on the ceiling. It was a real pleasure to sit outside in the garden and I can imaging this is pure heaven during the summer months. Amsterdam is pretty much around the corner (only a 20 minute ride by car, easy and cheap to park in the P+R) so visiting this wonderful city is super easy. And also the rest of The Netherlands is very easy to reach during your stay on this houseboat. And what a houseboat it is: super spacious, very nice and warmly decorated with lots of natural materials and vintage furniture. Just loved every minute of our stay and hope that this floating home will be available during our next visit to 'Holland'. Thanks Jacqueline, your hospitality is well appreciated!

    Amazing Experience!

    In reality, the houseboat and the garden around it are more beautiful than the pictures! We had a wonderful time there with our friends - swimming in the canal, day trip to Weesp, grilling and chilling out. Jacqueline and Wouter are fantastic hosts. We would always recommend this houseboat! Thanks a ton :)

    Beautiful houseboatShow original

    We are a family with 3 children and had enough space on the boat. The equipment is very good, nothing was missing. We were greeted with a fruit basket and a vase with gladioli on the table, which we found very nice. Outside there are several places to sit down, we used the lounge for the cooler evenings and the other time we sat in front of the tiny house directly on the water and for eating there was also a seating area directly in front of the exit to the garden. We can only recommend the boat with the beautiful garden. But we were really lucky with the weather, sunshine every day.
