Drive straight, after the white building, the 2nd road to the left. At the end of the road you can park your car. Location houseboat: In the summer (wheather permitting), Surla puts the houseboat in a beautiful spot/location on the lake. The houseboat remains in place by means of spud poles. In bad weather conditions, a Surla employee will put the houseboat in a sheltered place in the marina of Monnickendam. This can also happen during your rental period, because we don't want to take any risks. Surla Tender (Dinghy): During your stay we provide an dinghy. This aluminum tender is included during the rental of the houseboat. It is important that you start the tender with the trottle in Neutral. Do you want to lock the tender when you are not using it? Also at night? Sail slowly! Place the tender at the front or back of the houseboat. Gently moor so that there is no damage to the houseboat or tender. We will charge for damage immediately. The tender is fully fueled upon your arrival. The request is to put the amount on the table in cash: 40 euros for an empty tank and 20 euros for half a tank. If the tender has not been refueled and no money has been left behind on departure, we will charge the costs afterwards.

The town is so quaint and adorable with so many friendly people. The houseboat was gorgeous, clean and beautifully decorated. The sauna was perfect since the weather was a little chill but exactly what you’d expect for the end of December. The host was very friendly and helpful. It was an amazing experience! ##### Kassi S.

Betten waren bequem. Leider konnten wir die Sauna nicht benutzen, da die Tür kaputt war und damit nicht richtig geschlossen werden konnte. Für das Geld erwarte ich, dass alles ganz ist. Ansonsten war alles unkompliziert. Unser zugewiesener Host war freundlich und unkompliziert. ##### Kathrin S.
