Description:
Our "Zwenkauer See" vacation rental is located on the 1st floor of our house, which we built in 2000. It is a two-room apartment with a balcony and a view of the garden. The apartment was completely renovated and refurnished in 2024. Access to the vacation rental is via a staircase. It is therefore completely self-contained and separate. There is one other vacation rental on the same floor. The vacation rentals are ideal for couples or families (extra beds available in the living rooms) as a starting point for bike rides or hikes around Zwenkau, in the Leipzig Neuseenland region, or even to Leipzig. We live on the first floor and are happy to assist you with any questions.
Size and Amenities:
The apartment has 68 square meters of living space, including 1 living room, 1 bedroom, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a balcony. The living room has a modern, nautical-inspired design and is furnished with a corner sofa, a wingback chair, and a TV. The bathroom is wheelchair-accessible and features a large walk-in shower. The kitchen is completely new and fully equipped with all appliances and utensils (stove, dishwasher, coffee maker, kettle, toaster). There is an ample supply of dishes, glasses, silverware, etc. The kitchen has a dining area for 2 people. The living room has an additional dining table that seats up to 4 people. If needed, the corner sofa in the living room can be used as a sleeping area for 1–2 additional people (for an extra charge—please arrange this in advance). The apartment is ideally suited for 2 people. For families with a baby or toddler, a crib can be provided upon request. Free parking is available at the house.
Location:
Our house is located directly across from the Waldbad Zwenkau and thus right next to the "Eichholz" forest. Lake Zwenkau is about 1.5 km away and can be reached on foot or by bike.
For drivers, parking is available right by the lake at “Kap Zwenkau” or at the “Pulvermühle.” The area surrounding Leipzig has been heavily shaped by lignite mining and open-pit mines. The Peres open-pit mine is still active, as is the Lippendorf lignite-fired power plant, one of the most modern in Europe. Since the late 1990s, the region has undergone significant transformation, and numerous lakes have been created—the “Leipzig New Lake District”—surrounded by numerous existing and newly reforested wooded areas. It is approximately 20 km to Leipzig, a city known for its culture, art, and sports.
