Recreatiegebied Henschotermeer

A beautiful spot to have a photoshoot - bear in mind you need permission and there may be a fee.

Fascinating place. You would not believe that you are still in the Netherlands. Entry is €3.50. Ticket needs to be bought online

I came here outside the tourist season, very nice views, almost empty beach, I recommend it

Incredible place to relax with enough beach space.Surrounded by enough woods space where you can also take long walks.

Busy on Sunny weekends.

This is a really beautiful place and on a nice day you feel like you are abroad. I had mixed feelings about the entrance fee at first but after going several times, I think it helps keep the place nice for everyone. I have seen firsthand how people can take advantage of these sites otherwise. Recently the parking fee was reduced a little and this seems to be a more fair price. It’s great that there is somewhere you can buy refreshments.

One of the Netherlands' best outdoor natural lakes, perfect for swimming and SO beautiful! There are toilets and facilities and ice-cream and fries, a beach and shady forest spots. Lots of fun for kids too - pretty perfect. ;)

On a hot day: you might get stuck in the queue for the parking spots if you arrive by car around midday. Either take a bicycle, or arrive around 3.

Heavenly...It was worth driving 50 kms to discover this hidden beauty. By far, the best recreational area I've been in NL. Good for walking, swimming and relaxing.

Make sure to pay for parking and entry online, cash is not accepted

Wonderful recreational place. Nice big beach and round lake that goes gradually deep. Pretty good for kids to play in the low water. The forest around is pretty nice and big and it allows for some nice walks or bike rides. It can be pretty busy during summer holiday season though

Beautiful place in the middle of the forest to have a relax day before the summer of course 😀

Living in this area with such an amazing artpiece of nature. What more would you want. Ice skating when it freezes, a swim to cool down when the temperature rises. A walk around when you just need one. This is the place to be. Nice parking space.

Lovely hot day beach. Good combo of trees and beach. Clean bathrooms. Snacks and drinks are nice too. Easy parking. Online ticket was fast and easy.

Great hidden gem in the middle of the country. You pay for the entrance and for the parking but it is totally worth it!

Less crowded, shallow water ... Perfect for families with kids .....

Lovely little place to hang out both in summer and winter. It's surrounded by forrest. And the little lake itself is surrounded by beach. So in the summer it's great for getting a tan. Sometimes in the winter you can iceskate.

What I can say? PERFECT ❤
After 2 years in Netherlands I found my peace of Mediterranean vibes 🥰

Can't wait to go there again.

Beautiful lake. During summertime you can spend time with friends to swim or have fun with kids. During winter it is a great place to fly with drones

Extraordinary place. One of those "secrets" that you can show to visiting relatives or friends. Sand, water, clean, easily reachable from Maarn by bycicle.

Bahamas middle in Nederland 🙂 white send without fish's, clean water, with bar snacks sandwiches hamburger's, perfect place to take a rest. follow me on instagraam for more photos b.schroner :)

Beautiful place. So so nice.
Love that you can buy ticket online, parking is 7,5 euro for full day. And that is your entrance.
Place is so clean, so well maintained that I am in shok. Netherlands is clean country in general but this is another level.
Water is clean and super nice for swimming. Place is super for kids small or big. They have some food kiosks. They have one nice cafe on the beach.
Prices are good not so high so for 2 Coca-Cola and 2 coffee you pay 11 euro.
But you can bring your food as well. You have toalets all over and well maintained.
So loved this place. We will come back again.
