It is also called a village or hamlet, but in terms of address it falls under Dwingeloo. Lheebroek is originally an esdorp village that originated in the 14th century. It originated from the esdorp of Lhee. Broek indicates the original presence of swampy land around the hamlet. Lheebroek is located on a sandy ridge in the stream valley of the Dwingelerstroom.

In 1381 the place was mentioned as Leatherbook and Leatherbroke. The spellings LheeBroek and Lhebroek occur in the 19th century.

The Dwingelerstroom flows north and west of Lheebroek. The grasslands between Lheebroek and the Dwingeler stream are called the Lheedermade. Almost every esdorp has a maggot and an ash. South of Lheebroek is the Lheebroeker-es and the Dwingelderveld National Park. Originally the population consisted of farmers who were united in the farmer's market.

In 2008, a handful of livestock farmers are still active in Lheebroek. Most farms have been repurposed as civilian homes. Lheebroek has another farmer's market organization with its own land and tools. Once a year, the farmers of the marke meet to discuss the state of affairs.
