Stacja Wypoczynkowa Augustów

“Rustikale Ferienlagerstimmung”

The place is great right by the train station, you can rent bikes cheaply, the bathroom feels relatively new, and the hosts are very friendly, but communication can be hard because there’s almost no English, the rooms are rustic and a bit dated, especially the beds which don’t feel fresh and reduce comfort, and every bike you can rent has its quirks—mine lost its chain halfway through.

Quiet and peaceful, the center is close to a shop and a beach.

Everything was perfect, the place was tidy and the parking lot was close to the train station in Suwalki 🙂

“Ogólnie domek oceniamy bardzo pozytywnie i z czystym sumieniem możemy polecić to miejsce.”

The cabin felt very cozy, roomy and well equipped; the large room contains a kitchenette, sofa, table, bench, wardrobes and drawers, and from it you can access two separate bedrooms—so in practice the cabin is one big living room with a sofa bed and two bedrooms. The kitchen is superbly furnished with dishes, pots, pans, cutlery, knives, various glasses, a microwave, a kettle and a fridge‑freezer, so you don’t need to worry about basic supplies. A TV with YouTube, Netflix, Canal+ and Wi‑Fi is also available, each bedroom has a bed, and there’s a large, comfortable bathroom. A major plus is that the cabin is all‑year round, each room, including the bathroom, has under‑floor heating that you can adjust yourself, so even on colder nights it was warm and cozy. The cabin sits very close to the railway tracks, but surprisingly passing trains hardly disturb you; they’re not very loud and don’t affect your rest. The property is quiet and peaceful, and there’s a grill spot next to the cabin—free of charge, and if you don’t have one you can ask the owner to bring it. On the other side of the tracks is a shop where you can buy, among other things, charcoal for the grill; one of the two shops is open on Sundays, which is a big convenience. The nearby White Lake is a short walk—about 15 minutes—by following Leśna Street, turning left into the forest and heading straight to the lake and beach; the water is very clean and clear. You can also reach the centre of Augustów without much trouble. The biggest drawback is the cabin’s acoustics: the walls, especially those separating the bedrooms, are very thin, so you can hear and feel everything that happens in the adjacent room—conversations, walking, everyday noises—very easily. With such thin walls it’s almost impossible to isolate yourself from the rest of the cabin. If you drive in, I’d also recommend bringing your own bedding; the bedding provided isn’t the best quality, and the sheets tend to slip off the mattress. It’s worth having a sheet with a rubber band that stays in place. The owners can’t control other things. If you’re traveling with small children and a stroller, remember the lake is on the other side of the tracks. The nearest crossing goes over a high viaduct with a wheelchair ramp, but it’s very narrow, steep and uncomfortable, so moving a stroller is very difficult—you’ll have to disassemble it, carry it and carry the child by hand. There’s another way across the tracks—a railway crossing a bit farther from the station, about 1–1.5 km away. If you’re driving, you can just use that crossing to get to the other side. For pedestrians it adds extra distance. Another thing to note is the large number of motorboats around the beach; if you plan to fish calmly, this can be a problem because motorboats pass by frequently and create a lot of activity on the water. If you’re traveling by train, also consider that the station itself is closed; there’s only a small shelter acting as a waiting area.
