Holiday houses in Glarus Nord

What a view! This was such a peaceful home to stay in. It was perfect for our family. We cooked a few dinners at the house and had a few dinners. Our host recommended renting a car as local bus doesn’t always run when you need it. I would recommend renting a car for this location as uber isn’t always available and it’s a hike up the mountain with luggage. We would definitely stay here again.

It’s hard to put into words just how special Florence and Heiner are. At first glance, you’ll be taken in by the breathtaking beauty of their home—the views, the garden, the immaculate cleanliness, and the delicious breakfast all speak for themselves. But what truly makes this place unforgettable is the heart and warmth of the couple who welcome you in. This was our second visit, and I already find myself hoping for a third. Florence and Heiner are among the kindest, most thoughtful people we’ve ever met. Florence even went out of her way to help us get to and from the bus stop, fitting it gently into her own schedule—a generous gesture that meant the world to us. While that kind of help can’t always be expected, her warmth and willingness to support us made our trip flow so smoothly. She also has a treasure trove of brochures and local guides for exploring every corner of Switzerland—ask for advice. And please, give Mordrid and Marilyn pats. They’re so sweet and we’ll miss them.

Nina is a wonderful host. She is proactive, flexible, kind, and responsive. She had everything we needed in the apartment. The apartment is a beautiful large efficiency apartment with a full kitchen in a peaceful neighborhood in a small town that is on a lake. Bed is comfortable and shower is amazing. There is no air conditioner and no washing machine in the unit. There are lots of great hikes for nature lovers and the lovers of peace and tranquility. It would be easier if you had a car to get around but there is ample public transportation; there are buses and boats which will take you to the train station or other nearby towns. We love to walk and you can walk the entire town of Weesen which is about 1.5 or 2 miles. There is only one grocery store in town which is about 20 minutes walk or about 1 mile away. But you can always take the bus. The bus stop is about a block away. Thank you dear Nina for your kind hospitality. We felt at home. We will definitely return.

Anja & Sandro were great host while being responsive to our questions. They were able to lay clear instructions for both checking in and out. Would recommend highly to any guest visiting Switzerland. Their balcony gave a beautiful view over the small town.

Incredible apartment for a quick escape to relax, Isabela is really kind and she always responds. Would recommend 10/10!

This place was great. The view was insane. And a short drive into town for food. It was also conveniently located for a day trip to Zürich.

This place was exactly what we were looking for. It was so beautiful. Close to many activities like a ski lift for more amazing views, boat rental, hiking trails, waterfall, etc. We would recommend this place. We went during the summer. I can imagine the epic skiing during the winter. this is definitely an ideal skiing village.

This wonderful family mountain house at Obstock is my dream mountain retreat. The location is to die for, with stunning views over the Glarus valley. As the house is at the entrance of the Glarus valley, it’s a quick drive to the Zürich area, which was great for us. Yet it feels very remote and you’re in proper mountain-land. We immensely enjoyed the coziness of the cabin, the old wood-stoves for heating and cooking only added to the atmosphere. Bathroom and beds very comfortable. Although the house is a time warp back to the end of 1800s, it has been so well maintained and was sparking clean. Next to admiring the view, there’s wonderful hiking trails running past the cabin and plenty of cool books to read. We enjoyed every minute staying here. Communication and check-in was uncomplicated and simply lovely. I’ve never felt so welcome. Thanks so much to Karin and Steffi - we will be back!
