On the edge of a wood, at the start of magnificent hikes, but also 5 minutes walk from the 'beach' of Merpuis, this chalet without fuss is a haven of peace, ideally located. You will certainly spend wonderful moments on its large terrace not overlooked, and enjoy the view of the lake of Merpuis and the island of Chambod... and the singing of the birds^^
All the necessary shops are 10 minutes away in the pretty village of Poncin. The main roads take us in 1 hour to Lyon or Geneva, in 2 hours to Annecy or to the heart of the Alps or the borders of the Jura, but above all... the nearby surroundings are splendid, whatever the season! … The Ain river is one of the most beautiful rivers in France because of the variety of landscapes it crosses.
This holiday home is composed of: 2 attic double bedrooms and a small bathroom on the upper floor with toilet and mini bath + 1 bedroom with extra single beds, and a shower room, shower and toilet, on the lower floor. The living room (30 -35 m² living room and open equipped kitchen) is on one level with a large west-facing terrace with unobstructed views...
We will be happy to help you prepare your stay in the best possible way, do not hesitate to ask us all your questions! The only bad questions are the ones we don't 😊 ask
Towels and bed linen can be provided as an option. The house must be left clean when leaving the premises. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We have been renting this house for several years by the week or the weekend. We also exchange it. The health situation means that we preferred to rent it on a long-term basis for the last 2 years... Our ads have disappeared, our appreciations too^^ Too bad we had lots of nice little words from people from all over the place! Yours will be welcome again :-)

Sehr schwer mit einem grossen KFZ dort hin zu kommen. Im Insereat stand nichts von einer Endreinigung. Kostet dann aber 80euro, wenn man es ni h selbst.macht. Die Lage des Hauses ist sehr schön.
chalet chaleureux, isolation thermique à ameliorer
grandes randonnées, entre 12 et 14 kms par jour
baignades rafraîchissantes en fin de journée dans les lacs environnants
Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024

Merci Joëlle, ravie que vous ayez apprécié arpenter la région. Navrée que les ventilateurs n'aient pas suffit à vous rafraîchir en pleine canicule. Vous étes les bienvenus à nouveau au printemps ou à l'automne, la nature est très belle aussi à ces moments là.
Nous avons decouvert une très belle région et avons passé un tres bon sejour. La location est tres bien faite et nous avons eu tout ce que nous souhaitons avec en prime une tres belle terrasse. Le petit geste de bienvenue a ete fort apprecié. Merci
Aapprecie
Magnifique vue sur le Lac avec le chant des oiseaux sur une belle terrasse.
Calme et Detente assurée !!!
Un bel endroit où l'on profite de la Vie.
L'Hote est très accueillante.
Sejour au TOP !!!
Idealement placé entre la rivière et la forêt dans laquelle on peut faire de belles balades plus ou moins longues. La terrasse offre un tres beau panorama et la maison est chaleureuse avec tout le confort. Nous avons passé quelques jours très ressourçants !
Alles hat super geklappt. Vermieterin war sehr zuvorkommend und vor Ort als wir ankamen und hat uns alles erklärt. Das Chalet liegt direkt am Waldrand unser Hund hat es genossen mit uns dort spazieren zu gehen.
Auch der Badestrand am Fluss Ain ist zu Fuss zu erreichen bei heissem Sommerwetter eine herrliche Abkühlung. Das einzige im Chalet ist die Wendeltreppe die für Kleinkinder nicht so geeignet ist. Alles ist im Haus vorhanden und die Waschmaschine ist ein Gewinn, denn die Reise mit kleinem Gepäck fängt schon toll an. Am Ende der Ferien haben wir den Wohnungsschlüssel in dem dafür vorgesehenen Kästchen mit Code zurückgegeben. Unser Urlaub war herrlich. 😀😀😀😀
