Vacation rentals with lake access in Skorradalshreppur

An absolutely stunning lake side villa close to the famous Golden Circle. We used it as our base for a week to explore Iceland with friends. We were two families, with three children in total. The villa is simply stunning, so beautiful and the perfect home away from home. We all loved returning back in the evenings and enjoying the sauna and hot tub. Then the grown ups sat up late to take in the never ending sun outside, snuggled with blankets and fire pit for company. We lost track how many photos we all took of the lake. We also enjoyed our coffee in the morning over looking the lake and running the loop around the lake. Communication was excellent and Telma couldn't have been more responsive or helpful. We 100% recommend and will be back!

This was our favorite Airbnb to date!! Just an unbelievably beautiful location and luxurious accommodation. The host was very communicative and welcoming.

This was a lovely home in beautiful surroundings! It worked perfectly for our group of 7 adults.

Our stay wasn't long but this place had everything we needed and I can easily recommend this host :)

A great place and location to travel/explore while still having the comforts of home! As a family trip with 6 adults it was nice to have both shared and private space in the house. With the well-equipped kitchen and 2 good grocery stores in the nearby Borgenes we enjoyed preparing meals in the evening and having breakfast before heading out for our day trips. The washing machine and dryer allowed us to go home with clean clothes. The hot tub was nice to relax in after a long day of hiking. The beds were comfortable and the blackout shades in the summer were greatly appreciated. We even had a chance to pet friendly horses that would greet us near the turn-off for the house. Kari was an attentive and responsive host! Highly recommended for family and close friend trips.

The house was beautiful, actually described, and with extra bonuses like the hot tub and easy access to the lake with amazing views (also from the house and deck). There were some quirks -- there were a couple of boards missing from the ceiling when we walked in, one of the bedroom doors is very difficult to open due to risen floor boards, and there was a constant small water flow in the master bath. Nonetheless, this house was an excellent place to stay, and in a perfect central location for visiting Snefellsnes, Langjokull/Reykholt region, or the golden circle. Borganes nearby (20 minutes) is a quaint small town with a museum (the settlement museum) worth visiting. Or just enjoy the the house and peaceful surrounds! We did have problems not getting check-in information, which was a problem. The gate to get cars in and out is annoying, especially for checking in or out when there is no opener and so you need to text the hosts (which cost us 20 minutes ).

We stayed at the cottage for Easter weekend and were extremely happy with everything. The cottage was great in every way — spacious and tidy, with tons of space for the whole family. It was especially nice to have the guesthouse. The hot tub was wonderful – perfect after a day of hiking and to enjoy quiet evenings under the stars. Everything was there that we needed, and the communication with the owner was very good and easy. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this cottage!

The scenery was amazing. It was wonderful to hang out on the porch, though admittedly a bit chilly in early October. The cabin was very cute, well laid out, clean, and with many small touches that made it wonderful. Only downside was that the hot water does have a strong sulfur smell and the kitchen sink is shallow resulting in water often spraying out of the sink due to the high water pressure. Aside from those two minor issues that place was perfect solitude. One other item to mention is that the nearby waterfall trail was very worthwhile. You park in the nearby small neighborhood and walk up an ATV trail. It was amazing to be the only people around the waterfall and to be able to hike further up the mountains.

We very much enjoyed our 2 night stay at this beautiful cabin in Borganes! It was a great location for us to be able to spend a full day on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula! The cabin was very clean and cozy and the host was very welcoming! They had a lot of recommendations for the area that was much appreciated. We would recommend this cabin to other travelers!

Amazing house, views and friendly responsive hosts. Clear instructions and responsive to questions. We saw auroras on 4 nights of our stay. Perfect location for being away from the city lights and being able to star gaze and enjoy the surroundings. Would stay here again

This was the perfect stay for our big group! We even got to see the lights really well a few nights out of the city lights. Great location and beautiful! 10/10 recommend.

My husband and I wanted to get away from the city and out in the country. This was the perfect place for us. The scenery around the cabin is breathtaking. We enjoyed the hottub and we're also able to view the Northern Lights on a few nights. The amenities inside were perfect and just what we needed. I was a little apprehensive about the shower being outside in a separate building, at first, but the water was hot and the pressure was excellent. Our stay was perfect and the communication with Vidar was top notch. Such a beautiful place.

Good afternoon everyone, The place was a perfect first stop for our trip through Iceland for us. You felt right at home and the value for money is fair. The location is quiet and easily accessible. We still have small suggestions for improvement. -The light has partially flickered - There was hair on the beds -The hot tub was not clean - In the kitchen there was no baking paper for the stove. These are all small things, otherwise the place was perfect for us!

Amazing and beautiful rental for our first time in Iceland! Helga is very communicative and very responsive. We had a lovely time and will definitely return in the future.
