Question 1

How do I reach the island by car?

Accepted Answer

You do not, and that is the beauty of it. You park in Prien-Stock or Gstadt on the mainland and take the Chiemsee ferry across. From Gstadt the crossing is only about five minutes. Check-in is from 3 pm, check-out by 10 am. On arrival day you get a message with all the info on check-in and WiFi.

Question 2

Are pets allowed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pets are very welcome, assistance animals always. Just let us know in advance and everything will be ready. For pets we charge a one-off fee of 15 euros per stay, shown to you before booking.

Question 3

Do I book the whole house?

Accepted Answer

No, you book a room in our guesthouse. The house is not rented exclusively, so other guests are there too. The kitchen and bathing spot are shared. Up to three guests per room.

Question 4

What about food and the kitchen?

Accepted Answer

All guests share a fully equipped kitchen, coffee and milk included. The island has a small Edeka shop and several inns. The house also keeps drinks and frozen meals ready.

Question 5

What costs come on top of the night?

Accepted Answer

A one-time final cleaning, the Chiemsee visitor tax per person and, if you bring a pet, a one-off 15 euros. You see every item before booking, nothing is added later. Minimum stay is usually two nights. The total amount is due at booking; credit card or bank transfer are possible.

Question 6

Anything to know about the lake?

Accepted Answer

The island is real nature, so in summer mosquitoes and insects come with it. Lake Chiemsee has mussels with partly sharp shells, so we recommend water shoes for the shallows. Bring sun and mosquito protection.

Question 7

How do I cancel if something comes up?

Accepted Answer

For cancellations up to 7 days before arrival we refund 50% of the booking amount; for later cancellations a refund is unfortunately not foreseen. If we can let your room to someone else for that period, the amount we retain is reduced accordingly. The full terms are in our T&Cs. Just get in touch and we will find a fair solution.
