About this property
Romantic and spectacular - gallery apartment with 180° view of the lake and Alps
This exceptional and beautifully furnished apartment on the second and last floor of a multi-party villa with direct lake access offers a large south-west facing balcony with a 180° view of the lake and the Alps. Here you can enjoy the spectacular atmosphere of the lake and romantic sunsets. There's always something to look at, be it the sailboats passing by or swaying in the wind, passengers boarding the ferries or the windsurfers and kiters carving in the water. The lake sometimes appears wild, sometimes gentle - and in the evening the flickering of the waves reflect on the ceiling of kitchen.
Relax and enjoy, living, cooking, dining, sleeping or even working: all with a view of the lake. There are TVs in the living room, in the two bedrooms and in the lounge area of the gallery and Wi-Fi throughout the apartment. There's a stereo with DAB tuner and Bluetooth and USB connection in the living room.
The kitchen is fully equipped and has everything you need for the preparation of hot and cold meals and drinks: fridge, freezer, ceran stove and oven, dishwasher, microwave, espresso machine, toaster, kettle and blender. The pots and pans, cutlery and cutting block are from WMF, the dishes from Villeroy & Boch.
Comfortable leather sofas and chairs, attractive, indirect lighting and powerful pictures create the perfect atmosphere. The lake, the sun, wind and clouds create a changing, breathtaking scenery.
The two bedrooms are equipped with high quality box spring double beds. In the master bedroom, a small desk overlooks the lake. This bedroom has direct access to the bathroom, and has its own small balcony. The bedroom on the gallery level offers a large walk-in closet.
The bathroom with floor heating has a "walk-in shower", bath, bidet and toilet. A large sink with a spacious cabinet completes the furnishings. A separate WC is available for guests.
In a small storage room you will find a vacuum cleaner, broom, ladder, and other household goods. There is also room for beverage crates and other stock. The washing machine and clothes dryer are located in the laundry room in the basement.
An easily accessible parking space is available in front of the house. Since the commuter train station is only a 6-minute walk away, however, you do not necessarily need a car. The S8 train runs directly from the airport or downtown Munich to Herrsching. Shops and supermarkets for everyday needs are also within walking distance.
Leisure: you will find numerous restaurants, taverns, cafes and bistros to the left and right of the apartment along Germany's longest lake promenade (10 km) that runs directly in front of the house. A few metres away, you can rent boats, other water sports equipment or bicycles. There is also a mini golf course only 450 m south of the apartment. A park with Herrsching's little castle and tennis courts is 300 m in the other direction.
The cultural metropolis Munich is easily accessible with the S8 commuter train or by car in about the same time. The ski resort in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Germany's highest mountain, the Zugspitze in the Bavarian Alps can be reached within about an hour.

Everything was as advertised and Stephan was helpful and available. He was also very accommodating when we had to delay our arrival by 1 day due to some health and travel issues with another member our party.
The apartment is exactly as described and does not disappoint. Beautiful views, quiet friendly town, and a well kept and elegant apartment. It's has everything you need and more. The owner is great to work with and has tons of information about all the area has to offer. We would definitely stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay. Stephan was there to meet us and showed us around and how everything works. It's a big place and he was very thorough. He made great suggestions about the area, what to do and how to get around. Stephan was very thoughtful and checked in with us during our stay to make sure everything was going okay. By far, this has been our best VRBO. Communication was wonderful and the property is accurately reflected in the pictures. Thank you for a wonderful and safe place to stay.

Wow! Thank you so much for the wonderful review, Cara. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Should you ever be in the area again, we'd love to hear from you!
We had a perfect stay at the place of the Hassenbach family. As a former hotel and restaurant owner I know what hospitality can be and this is the top of the top.
No prestigious stuff, but everything exactly as it should be. The apartment is extremely well equipped, very clean, perfect location and the host has everything well prepared, including tips of the surroundings in English and German.
Every single hospitality person should come to this apartment and take an example on how hospitality can be delivered to the utmost.
Thanks very much for your kind introduction to the apartment!
We will be back!!

Simply Stunning!
You might not think of the Ammersee when visiting Bavaria but this place was perfect. An easy train ride to Munich and a beautiful drive through the country side to visit all the castles in the area. Best of all you come back to these fantastic sunsets, walks on the promenade , lovely restaurants and you very own villa. The villa is as beautiful as the photos and filled with wonderful little touches that make you feel at home. Stephen is a great host from the first contact to meeting us there and the incredible orientation book he has created. I have stayed at many vacation rentals and have never seen such a comprehensive book! He was in contact with us all though our stay. 5 stars maybe too low for this beautiful property!

We're really glad you enjoyed your stay. Thank you so much for your kind words! We really like the place ourselves and it's nice to hear when others share our enthusiasm. :-)
Absolutely 5 star experience, great apartment and location
We stayed for over a month at Summerstrasse. The location right on the lake in Herrsching is a joy compared to being in the centre of Munich, yet easily and quickly accessed via the S8 S-Bahn a few minutes away. The apartment itself is extremely well equipped with high quality appliances, good TV service (though limited English language services). Excellent high speed internet, comfortable beds and very nice fittings make the apartment a real home from home, with great sunset views from balcony over the lake. The listing is absolutley accurate - not always to be assumed with online bookings! I also have to note that Stephan is a joy as owner, being very helpful and walked through on arrival and followed up subsequently. Highly recommended.

Absolutely perfect location and apartment!!!
Absolutely beautiful apartment and with amazing view and location on Ammersee - wow!! Stephan communicated with us so well from the booking day through the last day of our vacation. While we were in Germany - we were able to communicate with him via Whatsapp. Stephan met us at the apartment, made us feel at home immediately, and walked us through giving us detailed information. Very clean and stylish apartment!! Perfect balcony with incredible views of the lake. So close to the S-Bahn to go to Munich or anywhere in Germany. Walking distance to many great restaurants, cafes, grocery shops, bars, Etc, Andechs, the ferry that takes you around the lake, and so many other options. We only went into Munich 3 times during our 10 day visit ... Because we never wanted to leave Herrsching and the apartment :-)) The boardwalk in front of the apartment is fantastic with great bars, beautiful walk ... Bier gardens ... Cafes ... Boat rentals.
We HIGHLY recommend this apartment! Stephan - Thank you for everything!! Marlis, Matt, Jim, and Heidi

Beautiful Apartment!!
Wow...what a wonderful place. We had a fabulous time at this tranquil lakeside apartment. My wife and I have stayed at several places and we have to say that by far this is one of the best! The decor, the linens, the dishes, the amenities, everything was very well thought out. We've already purchased a DeLonghi Nespresso machine like we had at the apartment because we loved it so much! Stephen was a wonderful host and met us at the apartment upon our arrival to go through operations. He was available via email and responded quickly to answer any questions we had. The location was perfect with restaurants, grocery stores, deli's, shops, beer gardens, boat rentals, bicycle rentals, the ferry, and train station, all within a 5 minute walk. Had wonderful meals at Steg 32, Seehof Biergarten, Ristorante Seespitz Da Mario and ordered pizza to go from Restaurant Promenade Herrsching to eat on the bulkhead and watch the sunset. It's a great central location to take day trips to Munich City Center, Neuschwanstein Castle, Andechs Monastery Brewery etc. You can swim in the lake, go for a stroll on the boardwalk or just sit on the deck and take it all in! Spectacular vacation. Thank you Stephan for sharing your slice of paradise!

And we have to say wow, too! Thanks for the kudos. We're really glad you enjoyed your stay and had a chance to enjoy Herrsching, the lake as well as the surroundings. We love the place, too: the tranquility of the lakeside together with the proximity to the city and all it has to to offer is a unique combination, we find.
Should you ever be back in the area, please do give us a call. We'd love to welcome you as our guests again!
My husband and I were looking for a place to spend a week working remotely that was in the countryside but still accessible to Munich. This apartment was well suited for that as it had an excellent desk. The location is absolutely perfect - right on the lake with a gorgeous view. We ate most of our meals on the balcony and it was set up perfectly with umbrellas and beautiful flowers. Everything you could want is in walking distance, from restaurants, grocery stores, and an incredible bakery. We enjoyed swimming in the lake and went SUP. The apartment is extremely spacious, although we did not use the upstairs much. The bathroom is large and very well equipped. I especially appreciated the little touches like the dividers in the drawer in the bathroom so you could really unpack. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need. Stephan met us when we arrived and took the time to explain everything we needed to know. He created the most informative book of any vacation rental I have ever stayed it and it was very useful. I highly recommend the hike to Andechs brewery and taking the boat from Herrsching to Dießen. There so many things to do in the area - plus you can hop on the train to Munich. We loved staying here and hope to come back.
Wir haben uns in dieser großzügig offenen Wohnung sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Einrichtung der Wohnung schafft eine Umgebung zum Wohlfühlen und ankommen - sehr geschmackvoll gestaltet. Die Lage mit Direktem Seeblick ist einzigartig.
Wir hatten einen super Urlaub in einer perfekt ausgestatteten und sauberen Ferienwohnung mit einem wunderschönen Blick auf den Ammersee. Der Vermieter war sehr nett und für Fragen jederzeit erreichbar. Gerne wieder!
Es war ein sehr schöner Urlaub und hat keine Wünsche offengelassen.
Unser Aufenthalt war eine sehr schöne Woche direkt am Ammersee. Der Traumhafte Blick, die direkte Seenähe und Ausflugsmöglichkeiten waren sehr gut.Der Vermieter war sehr nett, die Abstimmung völlig komplikationslos und sehr gut vorbereitet.Die Wohnung selbst ist genau wie im Inserat beschrieben und ließ für uns als kleine Familie keine Wünsche offen.Es war eine sehr schöne Woche und kann nur weiterempfohlen werden.
Leider können wir nur 5 Sterne vergeben :-).Angefangen vom sehr sympathischen Gastgeber bis hin zum Ende unseres Urlaubes, war alles perfekt. Das Apartment ist traumhaft, liebevoll eingerichtet und es fehlt an nichts. Besser geht es nicht. Wir haben uns wie zuhause gefühlt und werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.
Nach einer sehr freundlichen Begrüßung durch den Vermieter haben wir die extrem schöne und liebevoll eingerichtete Wohnung in vollen Zügen genossen.
Wir kommen gerne wieder!
Wir wurden herzlich vom Eigentümer empfangen und eingeführt. Die Wohnung liegt wunderbar in erste Seereihe, direkter Zugang zur Seepromenade, direkter Einstieg in den See inklusive, zwei Minuten zu Fuß zu Dampfersteg, Bäcker, Biergarten, fünf Minuten zu Fuß zu Supermarkt, Biomarkt und S-Bahn-Haltestelle. Mittendrin und doch über allem, ruhig, mit einem umwerfenden Blick auf den Ammersee, vor allem zum Sundowner auf dem Balkon. Die Wohnung ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich vorstellen kann, inklusive umfangreiche Informationen, was wie wo in Herrsching und am Ammersee. Schöne Wanderungen direkt von der Wohnung aus. Rundherum ein gelungener einwöchiger Urlaub im Herbst, der Sommer spielte.
Sehr schönes Objekt, wirklich direkt und in bester Lage am Ammersee. Herrliche Aussicht auf den Ammersee. Wer hohe Räume, wie ich, mag - architektonisch, bewundernswerter Wohnbereich.
Nach einem sehr freundlichen Empfang, haben wir hier einen schönen und erholsamen Kurzurlaub verbracht. Trotz der wunderbar zentralen Lage - das Auto wurde während der Tage nie benötigt - ist die Wohnung sehr ruhig und der Ausblick ist wirklich einmalig.
Eine Wohnung, die mit viel Liebe für sinnvolle und schöne Details und deutlich überdurchschnittlichem Konfort eingerichtet ist, gekrönt mit unschlagbarem Seeblick, super-professioneller und persönlicher Wohnungsübergabe, und nicht zuletzt allen touristischen und kulinarischen Annehmlichkeiten in Laufentfernung. Was will man mehr...
Wunderschön gelegen, direkt an der Uferpromenade. Ruhig und dich mitten im Geschehen. Sehr freundlicher Empfang des Vermieters und Übergabe des Objekts.

About the host
Hosted by Stephan Hassenbach
Stephan Hassenbach and Family.
I grew up in Canada and have been living for more than 20 years with my family in Bavaria. We have been living near Lake Starnberg for more than 10 years, only a few kilometres away from Lake Ammersee. The region is beautiful and diverse. It offers the natural beauty of the lakes and Alps, leisure, hospitality, culture and a vibrant city nearby.
Why they chose this property
The location of the apartment directly on the lake and thereby so central is spectacular. What's more is the character, the charisma of the apartment with its large, extraordinary windows, the high, open rooms and the large gallery.
What makes this property unique
Located directly on the lake with a view of the lake and the Alps, in the middle of the city of Herrsching, the docks for the tourist ships (100 m) and the commuter train to Munich and the airport (450 m) nearby. Remarkable architecture with lovely, first class furnishings.
