I would go to the beach at zandvoort aan zee if you don't plan to trip on Saturday or Sunday(the beach will be too crowded if the sun is shining). Zandvoort is only a 30min train ride from Amsterdam and the train station is only 500m from the beach.
I can give you some more 'nature' places near Amsterdam if you want.
If you really want to trip in Amsterdam, I would go to the Vondelpark or Rembrandtpark. A private room is the only option if you don't want any people around you in Amsterdam.

At first they wore the aspect of charity, and seemed white slender angels who would save me: but then all at once there came a most deadly nausea over my spirit, and I felt every fibre in my frame thrill, as if I had touched the wire of a galvanic battery, while the angel forms became meaningless spectres, with heads of flame, and I saw that from them there would be no help.

Vondelpark is good, but if you're feeling adventurous, I highly recommend taking a low dose and going to the museums on museumplein. The Van Gogh museum is incredible.

well... vondelpark (and amersterdam in general) is an extremely relaxed place, even the bums are friendly. I tried to convey this to my parents who have lived within the US their whole lives and only ever take trips to 3rd world countries (for camping expeditions) so they really have no understanding of what its like the be in a place thats culturally better than the US.
For some reason, everyone over their is just happier, more relaxed, friendlier, at ease with themselves. Upon returning to the US i began to realize how uptight, angry, hateful, and antisocial americans really are. you cant really begin to understand untill your on the outside looking in.
of course i would advise avoiding germany, their worse than the americans are.
