Where to stay in Vinkhuizen
How the choice of base plays out on the ground.
Stadskerk is the fixed point. Vinkhuizen appears in the record as a district of Groningen with almost nothing else attached to it, so the practical answer for a traveller is to take a room in the city and treat the quarter as a short errand. Groningen carries the lodging.
Two entries, the Stadskerk and The drowned people of Nienoord, are what the sources place inside Vinkhuizen, and neither of them is a bed.

About Vinkhuizen
What are the main landmarks in Vinkhuizen?
Two names, no more. The Stadskerk is the church the sources attach to Vinkhuizen, and beside it the record enters The drowned people of Nienoord, a title that carries the name Nienoord into this district of Groningen. Nothing further is listed.
Whatever else a visitor to the Netherlands wants to see stands outside Vinkhuizen, in Groningen proper or well beyond it.
What is the history of Vinkhuizen?
Groningen's paperwork skips the beginning. Vinkhuizen enters the sources already formed, a district of Groningen without a charter date, a settlement story or an extract to draw on, so its past has to be read from the two things standing in it. The Stadskerk is one.
Alongside it sits the entry for The drowned people of Nienoord, which brings the name Nienoord onto the short Vinkhuizen list.
Where is Vinkhuizen?
Groningen's built fabric carries Vinkhuizen, which the record treats as a quarter of that Dutch city rather than as a place apart.
