Three brand-new camping pods have been available on the Aquacamping & Jachthaven de Rakken site since December 2025! These pods can be booked from January 2026. The current photos give an impression of the atmosphere, as work is still underway to furnish the pods. The camping pods consist of two sections: a living area and a sleeping area. The sleeping area contains a double bed (140 x 200 cm) and two single beds (90 x 200 cm). The living area includes a kitchenette with a refrigerator, electric stove, kettle, and Nespresso machine. A full kitchen inventory is also provided. There is a bench with a table and two chairs, as well as a freestanding armchair. There is also ample storage space. The camping pods do not have private sanitary facilities or running water, but one of the sanitary buildings is less than a minute's walk from the pods. All three pods are fully insulated and equipped with heating. This means you can spend the night comfortably in the pods all year round.
