About this house rental
Isenthal, 800m above sea level, an idyllic mountain village, in the heart of Switzerland, a richly wooded high valley above Lake Lucerne. A wreath of high mountains surround the pretty village, which has a pleasant peace and tranquility. Isenthal is a popular starting point for numerous hikes across alpine meadows to the mountains, or through the valley over the old land route to the Lake of Uri where you meet the well-known route of Switzerland, from various stations you take the post bus back to the valley. Small easy hikes like the Isenthaler-Bärenweg or the circular walk on the sun terrace Gitschenen are also entertaining for children. Even the experienced mountaineer will find numerous mountain tours. For swimming invites the Une Lake with the clean free bathing in Isleten and Seedorf, and the indoor pool in Altdorf.

ONCE IN A LIFETIME STAY!My family of 11 and I booked this stay for 3 nights and wow, what an incredible experience it was! It was a perfect fit for us, with the house being split with an upstairs floor and downstairs floor that you must walk outside to access each. They both have their own kitchen, bathroom, and living area apart from the beds. The stay is very steep, so just a note if you’re travelling with elderly (like I did) - there is a lot of walking and stairs, but all incredibly worth the trip.It’s hard to see from the road, but it is a right turn as soon as you see a wooden bridge and bench that reads the name of the stay in German! It’s a beautiful scenic drive only 1.5hrs from the airport (with tolls). We recommend driving here, though there is transit that reaches the village. But note the road to the destination from the main road is about a 15 min ride up a steep mountain side that is tight. Make sure to note the bus times, as the bus going up and down the mountain will take up the whole road.Upon arrival, our host greeted us with fresh bread and was super communicative, although english is very limited. They were so kind, always available for any questions at any time and had great recommendations for hiking and getting there!Book during the fall so you can see the stunning colours of the leaves and the trees.The house was immaculately clean and tidy. We are so grateful to book and absolutely recommend this stay!

We stayed at this darling chalet in Isenthal for 3 nights. The views all around this place are breathtaking. Tucked in a beautiful valley in the Swiss Alps with the sound of rushing water makes it feel surreal. The house was cozy and SO clean. Marie had fresh baked bread there for our party of 9 and was waiting upon our arrival to show us every detail of the home. This house is just a few miles from Isenthal. It can be a bit tricky to find so arrive before dark. Go through town past the church and the hotel, continue on for a couple of miles until you see a wooden bridge over the stream on your left - there is a mailbox there. You cannot see the house from the road. Cross the bridge and go up the driveway to the house. Thank for an amazing stay!

The house is located in a beautiful valley outside Isenthal. The road getting up there and through the village is very small and if you are in a van, it's a tight fit. Pay attention to the sign at the bottom - It has the timings for the bus. You will not be able to fit around the bus and will be stuck.
The house is two separate apartments that connect via outdoor stairs and both are pretty spacious. The creek at the bottom of the hill was great fun for the kids. You could easily spend a week in the valley hiking aeound and never be bored.
The owners were very nice and helpful. I would stay there again even though it is a bit of a trip getting down the mountain and actually accessing the highway. It's adds a bit of time to any day trips you want to do, but it is absolutely beautiful up there.

Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Woche in Schweigmatt. Die beiden Wohnungen des Hauses sind sehr praktisch eingerichtet. Alles ist gut durchdacht, sehr sauber und es fehlt an gar nix. Das Haus liegt traumhaft. Für alle Urlauber, die keinen Trubel wollen und die Natur genießen möchten, nur zu empfehlen. Die Kinder können draußen spielen. Es gibt keinen Verkehr am Haus und der Bach bietet sehr viel Abenteuer. Die Vermieter sind äußerst nett und hilfsbereit. Wir werden bestimmt wieder kommen.
