In the heart of the famous water village of Giethoorn lies Vakantiepark Giethoorn, directly on the shore of Lake Bovenwijde. Here you’ll find everything you need for an unforgettable holiday: a cozy restaurant café with a covered patio, direct access to the water for swimming and watersports, and Weerribben-Wieden National Park within easy reach. A unique place where hospitality, personal attention, and an exceptional experience are at the center of your stay!

Vakantiepark Giethoorn is not just any bungalow park in Overijssel. As part of Vakantieparken Weerribben Wieden, we offer a small-scale, personal experience right in the center of Giethoorn. This village, also known as the “Venice of the North,” is famous for its miles of canals, characteristic bridges, and authentic farmhouses.
The most special feature of our holiday park? During the summer months (arrival days February to October), many accommodations come with a private electric boat! This allows you to explore the picturesque village by water, gliding under the many arch bridges. There is no better way to experience the beauty of this water-rich village than from the water itself.
Important to know: Giethoorn is car-free, which adds to its unique, peaceful atmosphere. The park is 400 meters from the parking area and only accessible via a pedestrian bridge. This ensures you truly escape the daily hustle and can fully relax during your waterside holiday in Giethoorn.
Vakantiepark Giethoorn is perfectly located for nature lovers. You are just a stone’s throw from Weerribben-Wieden National Park, the largest contiguous lowland peat bog in Northwestern Europe.

With your own boat, you can venture deep into the national park, along hidden creeks and open lakes where water lilies bloom and countless birds have made their home. Enjoy the peace and quiet during a weekend getaway as you breathe in the fresh air and observe the surrounding nature.
During the high season, the park regularly organizes nature excursions, where a guide takes you to the most beautiful spots in the Weerribben-Wieden. Even in winter, the area has a special charm, when mist drifts over the water and nature comes to rest. It’s the ideal place to enjoy the seasons and the Dutch countryside at its best.
