About this house

You’ll wake up to the sound of waves and take your morning swim just a few steps from the door. Here, you’ll stay right on the waterfront of the Oslo Fjord, with your own dock and boat—perfect for peaceful days by the water. This is a place for those seeking peace and quiet, who appreciate the finer details and want a relaxed atmosphere. The cabin is located on an island, so a boat is required to reach it.

Both bedrooms have heat pumps and air conditioning for a comfortable temperature year-round, and there are two cribs in the cabin. In the living room, you’ll find a fireplace for cozy evenings. The kitchen is fully equipped with a coffee maker, dishwasher, refrigerator, and freezer. The bathroom has underfloor heating and a washing machine. There is also a one-person infrared tent, which can be enjoyed with a view of the water.

You have access to a spacious, private garden with several seating areas, a grill, and a large dining area. An electric awning and heat lamps ensure it can be used regardless of the weather. The 12-meter-long concrete dock has a swimming ladder, and you can borrow a motorboat. It is also possible to rent SUP boards, sea kayaks, and surfboards.

NOTE: Please note that the cabin is located on an island, so a boat is required to reach it. The boat is included in your stay, but a deposit of NOK 7,500 is required. This covers any damages or the deductible to the insurance company in the event of an accident. The deposit will be refunded in full immediately after your stay, provided no damage has occurred. - Contact the host for more information.

On the island, a beautiful trail winds through the landscape to a mountaintop with a bench and views of the fjord. A short paddle away lies Hjelp—perfect for a night in a hammock. Visit the stone-oven bakery on Håøya, explore Sætre with its pubs and art gallery, or experience charming Drøbak with its cafes along the waterfront.
