Log Cottages By The Large Lake

These well-equipped cottages are available for all-year living and located near good road connections. Cottages are similar but they are mirror images of each other. Cottages have the official best classification. Both cottages are comfortably furnished and offers all modern convenience for you to feel like home. The unspoiled Finnish nature begins at your doorstep.

Each house has its own waterfront, a row boat and a jetty by the lake of the large Vanajavesi Lake, known for its great fishing. The beautiful lake is rich in fish Vanajavesi, which is one of the largest lakes in the country of a thousands lakes. Area of the lake is 120 km2. The lake has almost hundred islands. Vanajavesi valley is one of most beautiful Finnish national views. The central location of the cottages enables a wide range of leisure activities all year round.

In the winter, after refreshing outdoor activities you can enjoy the warmth of your own sauna. When the weather freezes, you can curl up next to the cosy fireplace and enjoy the beautiful winter landscape.
In the spring, you can observe the nature springing into the life and becoming greener day by day. In the spring and all through the summer, the days will get longer and longer, and in mid-summer the sun will not go down at all.
In the autumn, you can pick berries and mushrooms in the nearby forest (in Finland berry and mushroom picking is included in the so-called everyman's rights). The autumn is also one of the best fishing seasons.

After you have been to the villa's original wood-stove sauna by the lake, and perhaps even taken a dip in the lake or rolled in the snow, you will understand why Finns love the sauna experience so dearly.

Each house has a wireless internet connection (Wifi).

The cottages are also suitable those with allergies; therefore pets are not allowed and smoking is not allowed inside the cottages.

The number of people using the cottage must not exceed the number of sleeping places (6 adults +2 children).

We strive to only use ecological and environment-friendly solutions in recycling and the energy efficiency of the guest houses.

You and your family are warmly welcome.

Ein wundervolles Ferienhaus.

Wir haben ab dem Haus wirklich nichts vermisst. Sehr gut eingerichtet. Die Umgebung mit den See unmittelbar am Haus und dein Ruderboot, ist der perfekte Ort um vom Stress abzuschalten. Das Haus ist groß genug um auch längere Regenperioden aussitzen zu können. Dann geht man in die Sauna und liest ein Buch. Helsinki ist etwas mehr als eine Stunde entfernt und Tampere 45 Minuten. Supermärkte sind acht Minuten entfernt und bieten das volle Sortiment. Ende August sind die Wälder rundherum voll Pilze und in einer halben Stunde ist der Korb bestens gefüllt. Wer angeln will findet beste Möglichkeiten. Die Mücken waren Ende August auch nicht mehr so extrem zahlreich wie bei unserer letzten Reise nach Finnland an Mittsommer. Erja ist eine wundervolle Gastgeberin. Alles in allem, wir kommen wieder!

Een ruime / prachtige cottage

Een ruime cottage, van alle gemakken voorzien. Zeer schoon, echt top. Uitgebreide keuken met meer dan voldoende apperatuur. Mooi houtkachel en een prima sauna. Prachtig uitzicht over meer. Buiten hoor je de autoweg, binnen helemaal niet.

Traumurlaub

Das Ferienhaus war gemütlich und hochwertig ausgestattet. Wir haben uns von der ersten Minute an wohlgefühlt. Das Grundstück ist sehr gepflegt. Wir haben die Natur genossen, das Rudern auf dem See, träumen auf dem Bootssteg mit einer Tasse finnischer Mokka. Sauna am Abend und Himbeeren sammeln in der direkten Nähe zum Haus. Sogar Rehe haben uns im Garten besucht. Es war schwer, dieses Paradies wieder zu verlassen.

Lovely relaxing snowy break!

We had a wonderful time at the cottage. The host sent us lots of information beforehand and was always quick to reply to any messages / emails. The property is lovely and in a very quiet, secluded location with an amazing view out over the lake (we stayed in Kaisla cottage). There was so much snow which was great for us all (including our two children aged 9 & 11) and there were two sledges left our for us to use while we were there, which was a lovely touch. The log fire and sauna were also amazing! We’ll definitely be telling our friends about this place and would highly recommend it as we had a lovely break.

Beautiful location,super cottage,friendly host...!

Cottage location is ideal...secluded enough to feel like your'e very alone yet close enough to a village that has a couple of great supermarkets ...only a 10 minute drive away. The cottage is well appointed with 2 double bedrooms and further beds on a mezzanine level which our teenagers enjoyed. A large living area/kitchen is well equipped and has a great dining table.... The wood burning sauna was well used on our stay and heats up swiftly and easily seats 6.. after which a short run to the lake for a cooling dip was much appreciated... Theres a great gas BBQ outside where we cooked most meals whilst admiring the beautiful sunsets over the lake ...beer in hand...
