Visit our forest house with its extensive natural garden in close proximity to the city of Zarrentin and the UNESCO biosphere reserve Schaalsee.
Located between Hamburg, Ratzeburg and Schwerin in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, you will find plenty of peace and quiet in a rural idyll and relaxation from everyday life.
Enjoy your vacation, your weekend or just a break in our thatched forester's lodge, which was completely renovated in 2014/2015.

The forest house is located on the outskirts of Kölzin and can only be reached via a private path. It houses 2 apartments on the ground floor (apartment "Schaale" 50 m² or Apartment "Fuchsberg" 70 m²) and 1 apartment in the attic (apartment "Amor's Ruh" 80 m²).

During the renovation, we made a point of preserving as much of the house's original charm as possible. The many exposed wooden beams, the old floors, dining tables from old doors, cloakrooms from old beams and the rediscovered mud wall on the ground floor create a harmonious atmosphere. This is completed by mostly antique furniture, which has been lovingly arranged in addition to new furniture throughout the house.

In the large garden, with its old oaks and fruit trees, there are plenty of seating options to relax and unwind or a cozy barbecue evening. The children can romp to their heart's content or play in the sandpit.

The large apartment "Fuchsberg" (2 - 4 pers.) On the ground floor comprises 1 living room with a sofa bed (full lying area of 1.40 mx 2.00 m), 1 bedroom with 2 single beds, satellite TV, shower bath (hair dryer available), Guest toilet, open kitchen with dining area, direct access to the garden with terrace.

Of course, free parking spaces are available on and in front of the property.

Towels, bed linen and final cleaning are included.

All apartments are non-smoking apartments.

We are happy to provide you with a travel cot and high chair.

The prices for pets are available on request.

Information about the area:

Kölzin belongs to the municipality of Kogel, is 4 km from Zarrentin and is therefore in the immediate vicinity of the UNESCO biosphere reserve Schaalsee with its unique flora and fauna. Many migratory birds also use the Schaalsee region as a resting and resting place.
With a length of 15 km, a width of 6 km and a depth of 72 m, the Schaalsee is the deepest lake in northern Germany and was able to unfold undisturbed for decades in the shadow of the former inner German border. It is now one of the most attractive landscapes in Central Europe.
If you want to experience peace and nature, this is the place for you.
The Forsthaus Kölzin is an ideal starting point for activities in nature or for trips to nearby, traditional cities such as Ratzeburg, Rehna, Ludwigslust, Schwerin, Hamburg or Lübeck, but also for a trip to the Baltic Sea.
Enjoy the landscape by bike or on foot and explore the beautiful area. There are countless bike and hiking trails around the Schaalsee.
Kölzin itself is located on the Schaalsee-Elbe cycle path and so there is a large rest and playground that invites you to linger. A visit to the Kruse family's horse and equestrian farm is also possible.
In Zarrentin there is the possibility to rent bicycles and boats or to sunbathe on the beach and then bathe in the Schaalsee. Visit the information center or the exhibition in the Pahlhuus, the moor trail or the monastery with the local museum.
You can find out about the range of cultural events on site at any time (e.g. in the Schaalsee Info or in the Zarrentin Monastery).
At the end of the day, you can then enjoy the local fish or game dishes in a restaurant or inn.
And by the way: Skiing is also possible with us - in every season. Simply go to the Ski- und Alpincenter Wittenburg.
Discover the beautiful Schaalsee region and be our guest.
