Krzywe Lake Houses · from the first morning
Wake up by the water Everything else can wait
Two year-round holiday houses at the northern end of Lake Krzywe, where the day starts with a view of the water and ends by the campfire.
A short drive from Mrągowo and half an hour from Mikołajki, yet far from the bustle. From the living room you look at the lake through a panoramic window, from the terrace you step straight into the garden, and the shore is just 10 metres away. You come on your own terms: one house for a family or both for a larger group.
- from the terrace to the lake shore
- 10 m
- in each of the two houses
- 130 m²
- guests in both houses together

- 01
Right by the water
The garden runs down to the lake shore, the beach with a jetty is about 20 metres from the houses, and you can see the water from the living room through a panoramic window.
- 02
A house just for you
Each house stands on its own: its own kitchen, living room, four bedrooms and three bathrooms. You never share it with other guests.
- 03
All year round
The houses are heated and open all year. Cycling in spring, swimming from the jetty in summer, colourful forests in autumn, silence over a frozen lake in winter.

Houses to rent · Modern and Loft
Two houses, two characters
The same layout and equipment: 130 m², four bedrooms and three bathrooms, a house for 10 guests right on the lake. What sets them apart is the setting and the mood inside.
House 01 · Modern · closer to the water
Modern light and airy
Modern stands closest to the lake shore. Bright interiors, natural materials and large windows facing the water keep it light and full of daylight inside. A good choice if you like to start the day with coffee and a view of the lake.

House 02 · Loft · by the meadows
Loft cosy and warm
Loft stands a little further from the water, right by the meadows. Deeper colours, bold materials and warm light set an evening mood, and the lake is still in view through the large windows. A house for long conversations after a day by the water.

Beach with a jetty · about 20 m from the houses
The water a few steps away
A swim from the jetty in the morning, a towel on the beach at noon, feet in the water in the evening. The lake shore begins 10 metres from the terrace.
One day · from dawn to the campfire
A day by the lake
No plan for every hour. This is what an ordinary day can look like when the house stands right by the water and the shore is 10 metres away.
Coffee with a view of the water
Mist over the lake, silence and the first coffee on the terrace. The best moments begin before the rest of the house wakes up.
A swim, a kayak and nothing forced
A swim from the jetty, a few hours on the beach or a kayak trip. Canoeing trips on the Krutynia start about 20 minutes from the houses.
A campfire and long conversations
The fire pit is waiting for an evening together while dusk slowly falls over the lake. Your phone can stay in the house.

Equipment details
Mrągowo Lake District · 9 km from Mrągowo
Lake Krzywe 10 metres from the house
Krzywe is a ribbon lake: long, narrow and winding, carved by water flowing beneath the ice sheet. The houses stand at its northern end, so 4.5 km of water lies ahead of you, in view from the living room and within earshot of the terrace.
You walk down to the shore through the garden, and the beach with a jetty is about 20 metres from the houses. The lake winds between forests, meadows and the villages of Krzywe, Dłużec and Krzywy Róg, and the centre of Mrągowo is 9 km away.

Quiet zone · no combustion engines
On the water without hurry
A resolution of the Mrągowo County Council bans combustion engines on Lake Krzywe. The water belongs to kayaks, rowing boats and paddleboards, and in the evening you mostly hear the birds.
Swimming from the jetty
A sandy shore and a jetty by the houses. An early swim in the morning, a towel on the beach at noon.
Kayak and paddleboard
The first kilometre of the lake is 200-350 m wide and the wind is gentler here. Mornings on the smooth water are the best.
Fishing
Pike, perch, tench and bream. You can fish from the shore all year and from a boat from June to the end of November.
Birds at dawn
Studies of the lake also mention hawks and bitterns. Most of the action happens before the sun is up.
The lake all year round
The houses are open all year, and every few months the lake looks completely different. Each season has its own reason to come.
Spring (March - May)
Cranes return to the lake and the shores turn greener every week. From 1 May you can fish for pike again.
Summer (June - August)
Swimming from the jetty, a kayak at dawn and long evenings on the beach. From 1 June you can also fish from a boat.
Autumn (September - November)Now
Morning mist over the water and golden shores. Pike bite best now, and boat fishing runs until the end of November.
Winter (December - February)
Silence, frost on the reeds and a warm house after a walk. When the ice is safe, the rules allow ice fishing.
More about the lake on its own page: a flight along the lake, fish and fishing rules, birds and the history of the village.
