Green Tiny Houses on Lake Salem
The idyllic landscape around Lake Salem forms the perfect backdrop for the innovative concept of Green Tiny Houses. These small houses are not only visually appealing, but also completely geared towards sustainability. They offer travelers a minimalist vacation concept that does not compromise on comfort.
Certified as sustainable vacation accommodation, the Tiny Houses are made entirely from environmentally friendly materials.
At Lake Salem, there are two different types of accommodation to choose from to suit individual preferences and needs:
The "Sleep Space" Tiny House offers a cozy and minimalist accommodation for your vacation. With only 5 square meters of space, it is ideal for couples or solo travelers looking for simple and compact accommodation. Despite its small size, the "Sleep Space" Tiny House offers everything you need for a pleasant stay, from a comfortable bed to a small kitchenette.
The "Tiny House Pioneer" is a spacious and luxurious option for your vacation on Lake Salem. With an area of 22 square meters, it also offers enough space for families or groups of friends. The highlight of this Tiny House is undoubtedly the large panoramic window, which offers a view of Lake Salem. The "Tiny House Pioneer" also has a fireplace and a sun terrace.
Relax among old fruit trees and fields, with regional products and home-baked cakes waiting for you in the nearby farm store and café. Explore the natural surroundings on foot or by bike and experience the beauty of Lake Salem by taking a dip in the cool water.
Tip: The region offers an extensive paddling area - kayaks and other boats can be hired on site.

The forest basket in mein.sachsenwald - Forsthaus Friedrichsruh
The Sachsenwald forest on the outskirts of Hamburg is a true natural paradise that offers visitors a peaceful and relaxing environment and invites you to take long walks, hikes or bike rides.
For those who not only want to be close to nature, but also want to start the day together with it, an overnight stay in one of the two sleeping forest baskets in mein.sachsenwald is just the right adventure. The 'outdoor beds' are placed on a platform that juts out into the treetops and blend harmoniously into the forest. Surrounded by sycamore, beech and oak trees, guests can immerse themselves in the forest and spend the night in the lap of Mother Nature without having to sacrifice comfort. The forest baskets are equipped with comfortable mattresses, blankets and pillows to ensure the necessary coziness, even under the stars if desired.
The special sleeping offer in the middle of the unique tranquillity of the Sachsenwald forest is also perfect for young people or the young at heart who want to experience the adventure of "nature" up close - "real nature" instead of "reel nature". With no distractions from outside, this is an opportunity for real connections - with yourself, with your surroundings and with nature. The forest baskets are also the ideal place to browse through a good book, let your mind wander or relax with meditation and yoga.
For those looking for a unique setting for a marriage proposal, the forest baskets offer a magnificent backdrop. The soft light of the setting sun at dusk, surrounded by the gentle rustle of the wind in the treetops and the first twinkling of the stars, makes for an unforgettable moment of eternity.

Overnight stay on the water: the Lübeck 1 houseboat
A special overnight experience awaits you on the LÜBECK 1, a tailor-made houseboat. With a wealth of innovative features such as a fully biological small sewage treatment plant, an extended aft deck and double steering, this houseboat sets new standards in the industry. It combines luxury, ambience and comfort at the highest level, including a sauna and whirlpool.
Right next to the LÜBECK 1 is the renowned Baltic Bay restaurant, which not only serves a delicious lunch menu that changes daily, but also offers a wide range of à la carte food and drinks in the evening.
As the LÜBECK 1 is equipped with two 30 hp engines and is therefore not license-free, it is only rented out on a stationary basis. Nevertheless, guests can explore the surrounding area on the water for an additional charge by using various options such as a dinghy, a kayak or a paddleboard.

Sleeping beach chairs on the North Sea and Baltic Sea
Experience a special accommodation option in the north: Spend the night directly on the beach or in a natural location in the world's first sleeping beach chair. This offers a unique opportunity to enjoy nature, be it stargazing, falling asleep to the sound of the sea or watching the sunrise.
The sleeping beach chair is no different from ordinary beach chairs during the day, but at night it transforms into a comfortable place to sleep. Along the North Sea and Baltic Sea coasts, you can use this overnight accommodation option and spend nights in the open air. Measuring 1.40 meters wide and 2.30 meters long, the sleeping beach chair offers enough space for two adults and is equipped with a weatherproof, window-covered tarpaulin that offers protection in the rain or wind.
