The Houseboat in Strømsfoss







Experience the Halden Canal in a completely unique way – stay on a houseboat in idyllic Strømsfoss!
Welcome to a different and unforgettable overnight experience – on a charming houseboat moored on the banks of beautiful Strømsfoss in Aremark municipality. Here you can start your day with a refreshing morning swim right from the terrace, enjoy fishing trips at sunset, paddle in peaceful surroundings, or just sit back and take in the view with a cup of coffee in your hand.
This is the perfect place for those who want peace, nature experiences and a touch of adventure – with the comfort you need.
About the houseboat
The houseboat is under renovation and will be completely ready for rental from June 1, 2025 – with updated photos available in spring 2025.
The "hut on the water" itself is approx. 28 m² with an open layout between a cozy living room and a fully equipped kitchen. Here you can easily prepare your food on a gas hob or grill – ideal for summer meals out on the terrace. A fridge and small freezer ensure that food and drinks stay cold.
The sleeping accommodation is divided into two bedrooms with bunk beds, and there is also a comfortable sofa bed in the living room – perfect for both family and friends. The lighting and power requirements are covered by solar panels, and there are options for charging phones and using small electrical equipment. There are also indoor and outdoor Bluetooth speakers – so you can enjoy your favorite music, whether you are cooking or sunbathing.
The toilet on board is used as an emergency toilet, while the modern service house on land – just a few meters away – offers a water toilet and shower for extra comfort.
A spacious terrace with a summer feel
The large terrace of approx. 50 m2 gives you the ultimate summer feeling. With outdoor furniture, a barbecue, a swimming ladder and gates in the railing, this is the perfect place to spend lazy days and long evenings – whether you want to swim, barbecue, sunbathe or just enjoy the silence of nature.
Access and facilities
The entire houseboat is at your disposal during the rental period, and you also have free access to the beautiful surrounding area with barbecue huts, gazebos, lavvo and service buildings with showers and toilets.
NB: The houseboat is permanently moored during the entire rental period – you do not need a boatman's license to stay here.
