The former Czarnowken consisted of the village and an estate one and a half kilometers to the northeast. The place was founded in 1572.

When in 1874 the district of Great Gablick was built Czarnowken one of them. The municipality existed until 1945 and was part of the circle Lötzen in Administrative district Gumbinnen (1905-1945 Administrative district Allenstein ) in the Prussian province of East Prussia . In the same period Czarnowken was assigned to the registry office Widminnen ( Polish Wydminy ). On December 1, 1910, the village had 226 inhabitants.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Czarnowken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Czarnowken, 160 people voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

On September 30, 1928, the rural community of Czarnowken expanded to include the neighboring Scheuba estate ( Siejba in Polish ), which was incorporated. The total population was 270 in 1933 and was still 247 in 1939. On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) 1938, Czarnowken was renamed Grundensee for political and ideological reasons to avoid foreign-sounding place names .

As a result of the war, the village came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name Czarnówka . Today the place is the seat of a Schulzenamt (Polish sołectwo) and a place in the network of the rural community Wydminy (Widminnen) in the powiat Giżycki ( Lötzen district ), until 1998 of the Suwałki Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
