Fantastic!!!

Our trip to Isenthal was a great experience. Maria and Josef are great hosts. Josef was always available and very helpful with everything we asked for. The acommodation was great, definitely more than we expected. You will find literally everything in this house, from a baking paper to toys for your kids. Our 2 years Victoria was delighted with a barn and wooden animals. Isenthal is located 750 meters above the sea level, so when you are driving up or down to Isleten you can enjoy amazing view of the lake and surrounding mountains. I also recommend a walk along the lake in Isleten, because it is absolutely beautiful. We visited Grindelwald, Engelberg, Luzern, Klewenalp (only 10 km away). We enjoyed our holiday so much that we extended our stay for 2 days! Maria and Josef, thank you once again for making our stay unforgetable. Ela, Jacek and Victoria.

An excellent stay in an enchanting village

We didn't meet Martina, but Joseph and their daughter welcomed us. They were really friendly, and were available for any questions, as they stay in the upper floor. The house was really comfortable for six of us,and the baby in our group had some nice toys tò play with. The surroundings are really nice, with some awesome views of the mountains. There is a grocery shop, 2 restaurants a few steps from the house and a bus service that almost comes to the door. :)....There is also safe parking available nearby the house. Only difficulty is to go anywhere, you will have to drive down the mountain , and the road is not very wide. But there was not much traffic through the road, while i stayed. Will surely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing holiday in the mountains.

Great

We had a lovely holiday, the apartment was exactly as described,clean and tidy. The road up to the place was very windy which would have been good to know, but the views and the apartment more than made up for that. You definitely need a car, unless you are planning to stay at Isenthal .Lots of nice places to visit near by Luzerne, Brunnen and Schwyz to name a few. If you are willing to travel a bit further afield there are other lovely places. But you could just as easy stay near by and go hiking and there is a mountain you can go up on a cable car. We had a lovely meal at the top of the mountain. Martina and Joesf were very helpful and friendly.In the apartment there were plenty of leaflets for different places, could have done with a few more in English but we easily found some leaflets when out. The people in the village were friendly.

excellent

Have been using Homelidays long before becoming HomeAway for our holidays in Europe. Isenthal is one of the most beautiful location we ever been to. The owner, Martina, is very nice, very helpful and the property is ideal for a family of four like ours or for even a larger one, up to 6 people can sleep in. Everything you need for self catering , we found a LIDL shop about 7 km away for food. Burt, for me, the best of the best was the road leading to the village, the last 5 km of it, single file road, uphill, with fantastic views over the lake and the mountain . If you go in winter like we did, winter tyres are a MUST! We'd definitely like to go again, in summer time eventually . We managed to drive 4 days to Andermatt and make use, using a family card, of the fantastic Glacier Express and of the local trains. In winter, the views are just magnificent . Can not recommend strongly enough! Thank you very much Martina for your hospitality .

A place where you always return with pleasure

For those who like mountain landscapes and nature, the life of rustic and quietly villages, here is a perfect place for a holiday. Beside that, you can enjoy the nice local people and most of all the nice and decent host. The apartment was a large one, clean with a large kitchen and a nice living. I was impressed about the library that was available. All kind of books : literature, books for children and a lot of information guide. You can enjoy a nice restaurant and a general store which are very close to the property. Also, the bank is very close and there you can find a bankmachine where you can get euro or CHF. I recommend this place the ones who love nature and hiking. In winter, you can enjoy in the area all kind of winter sports. Best regards to Martina & Josef.

About the host

Hosted by Josef und Martina Schuler-Bissig, Dorfstrasse 34, CH - 6461 Isenthal

I, Martina, and my 9 sisters grew up on a farm. I am a training officer and I take care of learners in a nursing home in Erstfeld. My husband is a representative for Culture and Youth in the canton of Uri. Marianne became a doctor in Lucerne, Roman is studying at the University of Bern, and Vera is in secondary school. It is our pleasure to tell you about the history of this valley and the people of the original mountain villages. We are looking forward to receiving guests from around the world.

Why they chose this property

Already 70 years ago, our holiday house existed as the post office. My husband has been a teacher in the village for 20 years. He purchased this charming house and remodelled it with a feel for style. We live in the same house. We live in a village where others come to have their holidays. We are close to the mountains and the lovely lake, which has many leisure possibilities.

What makes this property unique

The special thing about the holiday house is its typical and central rural placement with a wood-burning stove/fireplace, as well as the wild garden with a large linden tree. We have very good relations with our lovely neighbours. You will love it!
