About the accommodation
On an island in the middle of the Vinkeveense Plassen (20 km from Amsterdam and Utrecht, 12 km from Schiphol National Airport) you’ll find Vinkeveen the Chalet. A chalet equipped with a toilet and shower, small kitchen with 2 burners, fridge, electricity, fire pit, BBQ, and 200m2 of open space. Inside, a double sofa bed and seating area; outside, a lovely terrace with views of the water from all sides. You can also pitch your own tent on the land if you wish. There’s plenty of space for your own boat as well. Ideal for nature lovers or those seeking peace and quiet. From the island, you can jump right into the Vinkeveense Plassen for a swim. Vinkeveen is known for its clean swimming water. Angling is, of course, also possible.
Arrival and departure times

The fish stock
The Vinkeveense Plassen is a beautiful environment but challenging for fishing. The water is crystal clear up to 10 to 15 meters deep. You’ll find pike, zander, bream, tench, roach, and carp swimming here. The predators find the clear water interesting and hunt enthusiastically. For carp angling, the challenge is a bit greater. We recommend using back leads because there is a lot of recreational boating on Vinkeveen. And don’t use too many particles unless you also want bream at your spot. Once the bream are there, they come in large schools. You also need to consider crayfish.

1. Rules
You need to report to the meeting point at the agreed times.
If you are delayed, please contact the owner.
You can purchase the Amsterdam and Weesp Angling Association fishing permit for the third rod and night permit at the local fishing tackle shop. You can also get the permits at Hotel Borgers.
The bridges are closed on:
13:00 - 13:30 hours
16:30 - 17:30 hours
For the Vinkeveense Plassen, we advise against using small bait when fishing for carp. This helps keep schools of bream away from your feeding spot. It's also advisable to fish with tiger nuts and bring shrink tubing to put around your hook bait to protect against crayfish.
