Seeblick? Kein einziges Stück des Sees ist von hier zu sehen. Viel wichtiger: Wir waren mit 3 Erwachsenen unterwegs und in unseren Aktivitäten extrem eingeschränkt. Leider gibt es nur einen Schlüssel und niemand kann Haus und Grundstück ohne Schlüssel betreten oder verlassen. Wenn einer traininen oder spazieren geht, sind die anderen eingesperrt. Höchst bedenklich auch mit Blick auf nicht existente Fluchtwege. Der Vermieter verweigerte einen Zusatzschlüssel bzw. reagierte gar nicht auf unsere Kontaktversuche - weder schriftlich noch telefonisch.
