We came here last minute after a 7 hour drive because the Novotel hotel we booked was unacceptably dirty. Coming in the gastehaus late in the evening was like a warm bath after a long days work. Very neat and organized. Fine bathroom, clean sheets and everything had a very romantic, personal touch to it. Later we found that the owner of the place did a lot of the renovation and decoration himself which explained allot. Because it was probably not a busy period we practically had the whole floor and living/kitchen for ourselves. Though we were alone and the place was all quite, I can imagine that even when fully booked, staying here a few night may very well be a refreshing experience. Especially when you share your neighbors interests- which for most people visiting this area would probably be hiking or some sort of activity like it. As vegetarians there aren’t many options in the area but we had sushi dinner in a town nearby which was very okay-ish in a good way. Restaurant name was Koi. Remember to bring cash. Back at the Gastehaus we found that in the kitchen there were pots full of all kinds of nice tea which we mixed up to an awesome selfmade brew. After that we had a very good night sleep. The beds were also very okay. In the morning we had some fresh bread from the recommended bakery -which I would now also recommend. On the way back from the bakery I spotted semi- tame- super cute- rabbits walking around the Gerhardt premises. As an animal lover I think this had a very nice special touch to the already special place. There is a small lake on the other side of the road that can be used for swimming in summertime, and there’s a road directly up the hills and forest. It was now all frozen up now, but it was very inviting to walk all the way up. Petty we just didn’t have the time. Anyways.I’m really glad we found the place to rest our heads for the night and if faith somehow brings us back again to this corner of Germany ( which probably won’t happen as we personally have absolutely nothing to bring us here) - I would absolutely book one or more nights at Gästehaus Familie Gerhardt!I’m reading reviews about bedbugs even with pictures. I find these offensive to the owner because they are not even bedbugs, but just common bugs Reduviidae which are very common to the forrest rich area. They are completely harmless. Also in the reviews I’ve read that the owner would not be there for service or questions. You can call the man anytime in case of emergency or in case your diaper needs changing but for anything else I’m sure you’ll be able to manage yourself.If you book here, leave your hotel chique expectations at home and be open to the experience. When doing this I can assure anyone will have a great stay here!

A great accommodation for nature-loving families who want to explore the Black Forest and AlsaceLiked · The house and the associated property really meet your needs. The rooms are rustically but extremely comfortably furnished. The common areas such as the kitchen and lounge are equipped with everything you need in everyday life. A baby cot was provided free of charge including bed linen. The property around the house is an absolute highlight. Seating and small niches to explore everywhere are an absolute dream for both children and nature-loving adults. There are swings, a trampoline, a climbing tower with slides and even rabbits that hop around the property during the day. We will definitely come back and have discovered a real oasis for ourselves here. Only recommended for families.Disliked · We have no direct criticism, only small suggestions for improvement- Trash can also in the room- Flyers for activities in the area are unfortunately mostly out of date (some programs from 2018)

The house is on the edge of the forest. Clean air. Fantastic location. The owner is very friendly. We arrived very late and everything was shown and explained to us. A wonderful place to relax your body and soul and gain strength. We will come here with pleasure.

Superb house to accommodate a large number of people.Perfect for going green. The place is very clean with as much equipment as possible available. (Except for a coffee machine, bring Senseo pods)Ideal for families. There are lots of games for children.Fishing enthusiast with a license from the town hall you can indulge in it right opposite. 2 small ponds. Close to the French border, with many places to visitI highly recommend it, especially since the room rates are more than affordable.

During our tour of the Deutsche Weinstraße we stayed one night in this guest house located in a quiet and slightly isolated area. In 10 minutes on foot you reach the town center, with restaurants and cellars. …
