About this cottage rental
Welcome to Finlandia! Finlandia is a dog-friendly Avon oceanside cottage ready for you and your family to enjoy. Finlandia has its roots in - you guessed it - Finland. Read to the bottom to learn more.
Finlandia is near local shopping, dining, grocery, and watersports. And of course, Finlandia is just steps away from one of the nicest (and widest) beaches on Hatteras Island, giving you access to endless beach days during your stay! Finlandia is also located about 1 mile north of the Avon Pier.
Inside Finlandia, you'll be greeted by an open living area complete with a flat-screen Smart TV and seating for the whole crew. When it's time for meals, the kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals during your stay including stainless steel appliances, a stocked kitchen, and both traditional and Keurig coffee makers. With breakfast bar seating for 4 along with a flip top table inside with additional seating.
Even better? Take advantage the beautiful Hatteras Island weather and dine on the large private sundeck at the picnic table with seating for 6! The entire deck is NEW for 2026 and has ample seating.
At Finlandia, each bedroom is perfect for you to relax and unwind after a fun-filled day on the Outer Banks. Additional amenities at Finlandia include an electric Blackstone grill, outdoor shower, fish cleaning table, park style grill, Nest thermostat, and high-speed WiFi provided by Silicon Travel with concierge service.
A little history:
All beams for the home were manufactured in Kokkola, Finland by a company named Bothniahouse. Bothniahouse was known for building log homes, still popular to this day in Finland. The logs made their way to the US and Finlandia was built on site in Avon. It reportedly may be the only home on the island like it.
While the home has been updated, some of the original features and details remain. All inside walls and ceilings are the original wood beams, In the back bedroom, you will even see the back of a stone fireplace that was at one time a centerpiece of the home. The laundry room was at one time a sauna room. If you look closely outside the home above the main door area, you will still see an exposed beam that has the original stamp from Kokkola, Finland and Bothniahouse.
We hope you enjoyed reading about this little piece of history here on Hatteras Island.

Great place for a small family and a dog or two! The house has a great history and is very well equipped, especially the kitchen. Short walk to the beach and a nice low traffic street to walk your pets. We will definitely be renting Finlandia again!
