The amazing remote location directly by the lake offers an amazing time to relax and recharge!
The traditional sauna experience was exceptional and the owners are super friendly and welcoming. They are happy to share some Finnish culture and make the stay very pleasant and authentic. We loved it!

This was the ultimate authentic Finnish experience where we were treated more like family than guests. The cottage is absolutely beautiful in a stunning location. We had our privacy, but our hosts were so friendly and accommodating to our every wish. The sauna is a must! Arctic Lakeside Holiday Cottage is such a relaxing place to recharge and connect with nature.

Beautiful cottage in isolated area with direct private access to a frozen lake and northern lights
Warm and cozy with nice wood burning stove and comfortable beds
A bit too much stuff for a small space - less things would make it more comfortable
The arctic toilet was challenging at -20 in the night
7.0 / 10.0
It was clean, warm and cozy with nice views.
An additional detail could be added to the address information, as Google doesn’t provide the exact location, but the issue was resolved quickly by calling the host.
If a guest wants to take a shower, they need to pay for the sauna.

We liked all, everything … and then some :). Really authentic homestead with view to a lake, wooden stove and exceptional sauna (separate building). Host is super friendly and helpful. Would go back any time .

Wir sind an einem kalten dunklen Abend angekommen und wurden von einer warmen Hütte mit einladend arrangierter Beleuchtung empfangen. Minna-Carita ist eine wundervolle, aber nicht aufdringliche Gastgeberin, die auch nach der ausführlichen Übergabe immer um das Wohl der Gäste besorgt ist. Trotz Außentemperaturen von deutlich unter - 40 Grad Celsius war es in der Hütte gemütlich warm. Die Atmosphäre war von vielen liebevollen Details geprägt. Die urige finnische Sauna mit frisch ausgesägtem Eisloch am unmittelbar angrenzenden See und die schnell mögliche Aussicht auf Polarlichter haben zu einem rundum empfehlenswerten arktischem Erlebnis beigetragen.
Nichts zu beanstanden

Minna-Carita ist eine wunderbare Gastgeberin & das Cottage wirklich super gemütlich! Wir haben sehr gerne Zeit dort verbracht. Die Lage direkt am See traumhaft schön, auch im Winter mit viel Schnee.

Nos encantó! Muy contentos con el trato familiar de Minna, estaba atenta a que no nos faltara de nada. La casa súper bien, cómoda y muy limpia. Muy buena ubicación para ver auroras y desconectar de todo.
Que no tuviera ducha, aunque por un extra puedes hacer sauna y ducha que está genial.

寧靜湖邊 溫馨小屋
非常偏僻的地方 馬路轉土石路2km都是坑洞路況很差 無路燈也無法會車 讓你晚上不敢外出 屋內照明不足 無wifi 手機網路訊號不穩 無電視 無自來水用桶裝水也無排水設施要自行倒污水 沒微波爐 瓦斯爐跟烤箱要先用火柴點火 火爐在室內中間腳常會踢到受傷 無浴室 廁所在屋外10m處 且是簡易型馬桶無排水 上完用沙掩埋

Ein wunderbares Häuschen an einem geschützten Platz. Minna-Carita ist eine tolle Gastgeberin. Ein guter Ort, um zur Ruhe zu kommen und mit der Natur in Kontakt zu gehen.
Alles prima!

La ubicación junto al lago es perfecta. Es una cabaña para vivir una experiencia típica lapona. El menaje es completo. Tiene una estufa muy agradable que calienta el alojamiento en poco tiempo. Los anfitriones son muy amables y no incomodan tu estancia ni tu privacidad.
Aún a sabiendas de que no tenía agua corriente, tuvimos mal tiempo y no pudimos tampoco bañarnos en el lago, con lo que nos resultó un poco incómodo.

Il Cottage, raggiungibile con una bella strada nella tundra, è in una posizione veramente suggestiva nel bosco e con intorno il lago ghiacciato nel periodo invernale, che permette di vedere l'aurora!
Minna Carita è stata molto gentile ed accogliente dando consigli e venendo incontro alle nostre necessità.
Ci ha fatto trovare il cottage caldo con la stufa accesa quando siamo arrivati ed è stato veramente molto apprezzato!
Gli interni sono molto curati e puliti, ed è inoltre presente anche la legna per riscaldarlo con la bella stufa.
Lo consiglio per una bella esperienza di relax e a contatto con la natura.
Sono anche presenti dei giochi da tavolo per la sera
Tutto Perfetto

Das Chalet war einmalig, zwar einfach aber urgemütlich in einer hervorragenden Lage für jemanden, der die Natur liebt! Die Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und entgegenkommend ohne aufdringlich zu sein! Ruhe pur, ideal zur Beobachtung der Lichtverhältnisse bei Mitternachtssonne! Sehr empfehlenswert!
Ich habe wirklich nichts auszusetzen! Alles Prima! Die Einfachheit des Chalets ist in der Beschreibung gut beschrieben und so ist es auch! Mir hat es sehr gefallen!

Heel warme ontvangst, met een super gezellige chalet en makkelijk te verwarmen via een kacheltje. Fenomenaal uitzicht! Tijdens de winter een 2 tal km via een goed berijdbare besneeuwde weg.

En tiedä mistä aloittaa! Mökki oli niin ihana ja täynnä tunnelmaa! Unohdimme kaikki suunnitelmamme ja halusimme vain olla mökissä ja rentoutua! Mökissä on tehokas kamiina joka pitää sinut taatusti lämpimänä ja tuo niin mukavan tunnelman! Oli ihanaa herätä aamulla, lisätä kamiinaan muutama puu ja keittää käffet ja jatkaa sitten vielä vähän unia. Mökissä on hyviä kirjoja ja pelejä ja muutenkin kaikki mitä tarvitset.
Saimme myös käyttää saunaa ja siellä oli todella hyvät löylyt! Suosittelen myös käymään ihanassa Galleria jurtassa katsomassa Minnan tekemää upeaa taidetta. Toivottavasti palaamme tänne pian!

Cottage hyper mignon, chaleureux où l’on a pu se reposer et profiter d’une nuit au calme. Vous avez tout à votre disposition pour entretenir le feux de poêle et vous vous réveillez avec la vue sur le lac gelé.
Un grand merci à Minna qui malgré mon anglais nul nous a tout expliqué simplement et nous a même donné des conseils. Le tout dans un anglais de base.
