Get to
know us

We’re two couples—brother and sister and our partners—who joined forces to create something special for our families and yours. “Berend Botje” is our family project, lovingly cared for and full of personal touches. We’re passionate about sharing the simple joys of lakeside living and the magic of the Dutch countryside.

For us, this house is more than just a getaway—it’s a place where cousins play, meals turn into memories, and every visit is a little adventure. We spend our weekends exploring the water, sharing stories by the fire pit, and celebrating the big and small moments of life together.

When you stay at Berend Botje, you’re not just renting a house. You’re becoming part of our story—a tradition of family, friendship, and enjoying the beauty of nature. We hope you feel right at home, and that your stay brings you as much happiness as it does for us.

Welkom bij Berend Botje!

With love,

Our family
