Unfortunately (as of February 2026), the view of the lake from the cabin's "windows" is heavily overgrown. This should probably be cleared soon, otherwise the cabin is of little use as a birdwatching hide.

Weather shelter in the 118 hectare nature reserve Het Sweeltje between Montfort and Sint Odilie along the Vlootbeek. Varied hiking trails through the forest area. Also popular with mountain bikers - newly constructed single-track, one-way route separated from the parallel hiking trails.
