Aug 21, 2017 #### Very comfortable and thoughtfully appointed cabin in an idyllic location We spent several days at this wonderful property and loved every minute of it! The location is very beautiful, on a peaceful and quiet lake, with a kayak and rowboat available for our use - we spent a lot of time on the water or just sitting on the dock enjoying the view. We also appreciated the fantastic sauna and loved alternating between the heat and dips in the cold lake. My daughter used one of the bikes for exploring the area and we found a lovely little chapel in the woods, which was a highlight along with all the wildflowers and wild berries. The grill was nice for barbecuing, and there is great shopping for groceries and other items about 15 minutes away. The cabin had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable and was very clean. Would be a great location to bring younger children - there's a sandbox with toys, a trampoline, etc. Mikko was thoughtful and communicated clearly leading up to our stay. Highly recommend and look forward to visiting again! ##### Amy L. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kurt K. Sep 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tolles Haus Sowohl die Lage wie auch das Haus sind toll. Die Benutzung zu zweit ist optimal. Mit kleinen Kindern nicht empfehlenswert wegen der steilen Treppe. Mit Teenager aber Top. ##### Kurt K. Stayed 15 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andreas R. Aug 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Toller Platz für Finnlandfans Nice Sauna, super area, clean house, good outdoor kitchen, lovely terrace, good contact. Excellent lakes for rowing or kayaking. All you need. ##### Andreas R. Stayed 21 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin W. Jun 14, 2018 #### Peace, tranquillity and comfort Even better than the pictures suggest. The cottage is very remote but easy to find with a decent sat nav. Even though we stayed during a cold spell in June, the cottage is perfectly comfortable. The lake is beautiful to look at but we weren't able to get on it due to the weather. What is really nice is that this is someone's cottage and feels like home rather than a sterile holiday rental. Mikko is very helpful and just a call away if any troubles. As there were only 2 of us, we didn't use the upstairs bedroom. The stairs are steep and the headroom low. All in all, a perfect holiday rental and highly recommended. Just take plenty of mosquito spray as Finnish mozzies are very aggressive ##### Kevin W. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Antton R. May 25, 2025 ##### Antton R. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Botnia Hotel & Restaurant](https://www.expedia.ca/Kronoby-Hotels-Botnia-Hotel-Restaurant.h9393776.Hotel-Information) > - [Lapland Hotels Tampere](https://www.expedia.ca/Tampere-Hotels-Lapland-Hotels-Tampere.h10392966.Hotel-Information) > - [Forenom Aparthotel Tampere Kaleva](https://www.expedia.ca/Tampere-Hotels-Forenom-Aparthotel-Tampere-Kaleva.h48437250.Hotel-Information) > - [Forenom Aparthotel Vaasa](https://www.expedia.ca/Vaasa-Hotels-Forenom-Aparthotel-Vaasa.h54612949.Hotel-Information) > - [Wilderness Hotel Muotka & Igloos](https://www.expedia.ca/Sodankyla-Hotels-Wilderness-Hotel-Muotka.h24043751.Hotel-Information) > - [Amero purnu 3 by Interhome](https://www.expedia.ca/Lieksa-Hotels-Amero-Purnu-3-By-Interhome.h36346691.Hotel-Information) > - [Revontuli Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hankasalmi-Hotels-Revontuli-Resort-Hotel.h4603587.Hotel-Information) > - [Santa's Hotel Tunturi](https://www.expedia.ca/Saariselka-Hotels-Santas-Hotel-Tunturi.h2439829.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Bay City](https://www.expedia.ca/Bay-City-Hotels.d6015.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Nílu Puerto Escondido by Selina](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Escondido-Hotels-Selina-Puerto-Escondido.h22415538.Hotel-Information) > - [Riverside Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamloops-Hotels-Riverside-Motel.h21952128.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Savonia](https://www.expedia.ca/Kuopio-Hotels-Hotel-Savonia.h17302875.Hotel-Information) > - [De Gamlas Hem Hotel & Restaurant](https://www.expedia.ca/Oulu-Hotels-De-Gamlas-Hem-Hotel-Restaurant.h33534562.Hotel-Information) > - [Wilderness Hotel Inari & Igloos](https://www.expedia.ca/Inari-Hotels-Wilderness-Hotel-Inari.h24043653.Hotel-Information) > - [Original Sokos Hotel Kimmel](https://www.expedia.ca/Joensuu-Hotels-Original-Sokos-Hotel-Kimmel.h523661.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Washington](https://www.expedia.ca/Washington-Hotels.d178318.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Lillan Hotel & Kök](https://www.expedia.ca/Tampere-Hotels-Lillan-Hotel-Cafe-Butik.h20148680.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Villa Molnby](https://www.expedia.ca/Porvoo-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Molnby.h32331784.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotelli Kerava](https://www.expedia.ca/Kerava-Hotels-Hotelli-Kerava.h61422646.Hotel-Information) > - [Naava Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Ahtari-Hotels-Naava-Resort.h31567778.Hotel-Information) > - [Original Sokos Hotel Vaakuna Pori](https://www.expedia.ca/Pori-Hotels-Original-Sokos-Hotel-Vaakuna-Pori.h523687.Hotel-Information) > - [Giellajohka](https://www.expedia.ca/Inari-Hotels-Giellajohka.h46167000.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > - [Flights from Beijing (PEK) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/pek/yyz/beijing-to-toronto) > - [Flights from Jamaica (JFK) to Ferno (MXP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/jfk/mxp/new-york-to-milan) ### Packages > - [Biblioteca Joanina](https://www.expedia.ca/Biblioteca-Joanina-Coimbra-City-Centre.d6116870.Vacation-Attraction) ### Vacation Rentals ### General
