Welcome to the BoppeTike!
The Boppe Tike is the old name of this region/neighborhood that was once called that because it is situated somewhat higher (boppe = high, in Frisian). The surrounding lands were excavated for peat extraction at the time. The name immediately tells something about the cultural history of this beautiful area.
Our yard is located on the edge of De Tike, a small village tucked away on a cul-de-sac, in a rural setting in the scenic landscape of the Noardlike Fryske Wâlden national landscape.
It is a beautiful place in the center of Friesland, with lots of privacy, where you can enjoy a frog concert in the evening, count the stars on a clear night and where you will be awakened by the birds in the morning…
The site is just under a hectare in size and has several wonderful spots where you can set up your tent: do you opt for a spot by the fire pit, near the pond or a little less in the back, nicely hidden between the bushes?
In consultation you can light a fire yourself on the fireplace or take a refreshing dip in the pond.
If you don't have a tent with you or don't feel like setting it up, you can also spend the night in the tree house.
Or would you rather sleep in a nice bed? Then book the Droomdome!.
In addition, there is also a TinyHouse for rent and the completely renovated and insulated barn (see naturehouse.nl).
On the other side of the barn, a common room has been created with its own kitchenette with refrigerator, combi oven, coffee maker and kettle.
You will also find the toilet and shower (separate from each other) that you can use as a guest.
The village of De Tike has its own small harbor from where you can sail up to De Leijen with your canoe, sup or boat. You can also surf from the beaches around the lake.
In addition, it is an excellent base for beautiful cycling and walking tours to, for example, the National Parks "Drents-Friese Wold" and the "Alde Feanen" around Earnewâld.
People often think of Friesland as sailing in the lake area, but it has much more to offer: go on a journey of discovery and be surprised by the variety of nature with small picturesque villages and towns. A day trip to a Wadden island is also easy to do from here. You can sniff out culture in Leeuwarden (20 km) or Groningen (35 km), but also in Dokkum and Sneek (both 30 km from here).
Oh yes... what you can also do: spend a day relaxing in the beautiful wellness of Burgum (8 km).
Come and sleep a night and discover it all for yourself!
Wonderful place, centrally in Friesland, ideal base for walking and cycling enthusiasts. But you can also enjoy supping, canoeing and surfing on the lake.

Hi, Yka here from the BoppeTike.
Will you also pitch your tent with us or spend the night at a height in the tree house? If you prefer to sleep in a real bed, opt for a unique experience and spend the night in the Droomdome with panoramic roof and fall asleep under the starry sky.
Do you like a little more privacy? Then book our nature house: a tiny house with all the trimmings.
There is a (swimming) pond with a beach, a campfire place where you can light your own fire and a bad weather facility has been made in the barn: a communal indoor area with kitchen, sitting area and dining table. You share the toilet and shower with the other guests.
Will we see you this summer? We welcome you wholeheartedly.
Go to a Wadden Island for a day. From here you are in Holwert in just over half an hour, where the boat departs for Ameland and Schier
Discover the story of the Noardlike Fryske Wâlden
You can get your groceries in Burgum or Drachten (both 8 km from here). Or in the Frisian village supermarket in Eastermar (3 km from here)(

The Boppe Tike is a wonderful mini camping with really warm and friendly hosts. We had a weekend stay with a tent pitch next to the water. The facilities available in the common room were very clean and tidy and offers a nice spot to play cards or read a book if the weather takes a turn for the worse. We were also kept company by the hosts 2 very sweet cats, one of which sat on our laps in the evening also enjoying the warmth from the fire! All in all a heel gezellige weekendje weg!
How was the contact with the host?
Contact with Yka was very quick both through campspace and also via whatsapp.
Tips for new guests?
You aren't able to park your vehicle next to your pitch (we arrived on motorcycles and parked in the car park space) but this is to preserve the camp environment and rightfully so.

Super experience! We went this summer for the special experience and not so much for the location. This ended up at the Boppe Tike with the dome and tree house. We tried them both and it was great. Yka and the whole family are very hospitable. We were kindly welcomed. The Dome is a bit more luxurious. Just didn't think that a see-through roof also means late dark and early light. But with a sleeping mask this was solved in no time. Unfortunately it was too cloudy to see the stars, but it was still very nice and cozy in the tent. Kitchen was fine and toilet and shower were neat and nice. Note the first night it was full house. There is 1 toilet and shower for all guests (own tent, tree house and Dome) luckily the children were all of a different age (with different bed times 😁) so there was never actually a "traffic jam" for the shower or toilet. Nice trampolines in the garden for the kids. Mainly came for the place to sleep and so we didn't really have a plan for activities. There was enough information about the area so that the days were filled quickly. How beautiful it is here 🤩
How was the contact with the host?
Very good
Tips for new guests?
There is a lot of water and therefore a lot of mosquitoes--> be prepared. Mosquito spray is available.
Possibly bring a sleeping mask if you like to sleep completely dark. Especially in the summer.

Beautiful place in Friesland. Beautiful surroundings. We were able to find a spot in Yka's very large garden. We were allowed to make a fire and even got mosquito spray (we hadn't thought of that ourselves.) Beautiful shower, toilet and kitchen at our disposal. Space and lots of rest. Small swimming water and lots of greenery.

Camped for two nights at Boppe Tike.
Truly a beautiful place. There were no other guests, so it was all to yourself.
Nice pitch for the tent. Wake up to bird sounds and frog concerts.
Everything in the kitchen was perfectly arranged, refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, pots and pans. I was also allowed to make coffee.
Thanks for this beautiful experience!
Regards, Woodine

I came for the break and that worked out well. I pitched my tent in a nice spot between the trees. It felt like I was deep in a forest but at the same time shower and toilet were very close.

Yka is super friendly and makes sure everything is going well. I forgot some stuff but I could use what was there. The last morning there was even something (homemade) delicious waiting for me :)

It is recommended to come here. Not a massive campsite but nice and cozy. And if you don't want to stay in a tent, look at the nature house that is also here.

Stay in August 2022. DELICIOUS!! This was really enjoyable!! My 7 year old son and I as a mom had a heavenly time :-).
All necessary facilities available in the garden pavilion (shower, toilet, electricity, cooking on gas, kitchenette still under construction at the time of my stay).
The garden is beautiful and large, with many (hidden) corners, an oasis of peace.

Super pleasant hosts! THANK YOU Yka!!
Very friendly and welcoming.
My son - who fell in love with the dog - was very warmly welcomed!!

Who hasn't dreamed of sleeping in a tree house as a kid? At the Boppe Tike it's just possible. With a ladder (which is very well secured), climb up to the tree house. That is a special overnight stay! There are 3 mattresses and pillows in the tree house, so you only need to bring your own sleeping bag for an overnight stay at altitude.
But not only the tree house is special, in the garden, which is actually just a small forest, there is also a swimming pond with a beach. How cool is that?
In the yard of the host is a toilet block with a shower, a dining table, seating area and a kitchenette. When we were here, this was not completely finished, but the host provided us with a camping stove to be able to cook anyway. Its location on a dead end road makes it a very peaceful and quiet place.
The area has beautiful walking and cycling routes, a large lake a short walk away, and Drachten with all amenities nearby.
How was the contact with the host?
The contact with the host was very good, we were warmly welcomed and the host was easily accessible for questions.
Tips for new guests?
There is a lot to do in the area, but don't forget to discover the Alde Feanen by canoe. Furthermore, the woods in Beetsterzwaag with its old majestic trees are nearby and very beautiful.

A paradise! Sleeping in the tree house, making a fire with a wheelbarrow of wood that was immediately brought in, having breakfast on a small beach and immediately swimming in the large pond. Enjoying trees, mega garden/land around it, crossing hedgehog, enthusiastic and nice owners. Do nothing more 😀!

Yka showed me around and showed me everything on arrival. What a cool place, the photos don't do it justice.
Wake up to the chirping of birds and the bleating of sheep, that's all you hear! Wonderfully quiet.
I had reserved the tree house, but due to the presence of oak processionary caterpillars, I spent my two nights in the kitchen on the sofa bed, which was not a problem. I would book again in a heartbeat, albeit with a tent. Or the nature house, I'm not sure yet :)

Fantastic experience to sleep in a tree house once. Great bed with nice balcony with two chairs. Plenty of room inside for your things. At the bottom of the tree house there are sheep (behind a fence.) And nature sounds all around you. Delicious

Yka is a great hostess. On arrival, at the time of stay and on farewell. She had baked a cake for her daughter's birthday and we also get a piece of cake. That's what I call a warm welcome.
