Will be visiting father's home town of Emmendingen (Schwarzwald north or Freiburg) looking for accomodations. Traveling with wife and child (age 7) August 5,6 and 7.

Frankly, I had never heard of Emmendingen. I just did a google search for emmendingen germany and received several possible web sites. You might do the same.

My first choice for accommodations would be this farm just a few km NW of Emmendingen - http://www.ramstalhof.de/

Nice looking little Zimmer Frei that might be worth taking a look at - http://www.privatzimmervolz.de/index.html

Friendly looking German family with an apartment to rent (3 day rent OK) - http://www.flamingoblick.de/

Another nice looking apartment in Emmendingen - http://www.baar-em.de/index.html

"Emmendingen.de" has a page for accomodations: http://www.emmendingen.de/show.asp?pageID=25
(Oops, Bavariaben told you about the pages as well...)
There at least you get a list, a photo each and if applicable the URL.

It´s all in German (does you father still speak it?) though. If language is a problem, I´d probably simply write to the ctiy´s Tourist Information Center:
[email protected]
Adress: Postfach 1180
79301 Emmendingen
Fax: 07641/935-235

I hope you´ll have a chance to visit Freiburg as well. That´s where MY parents are from

Don't know why, but this town name Emmendingen was used over and over in the German Lessons I took when it came time to practice vocabulary. Guess I will have to go there some time.

By the way, the Schwarzvald is very nice.
