What our guests have said about us?

The cottage was in an excellent location right next to the ski track and a short distance to the shop and restaurants. Lots to do at the cottage (games, books, outdoor equipment) and a well-equipped kitchen. Communication with the host was easy. Thank you!

A really lovely cottage in a stunning location. Exactly as described and worth the price. Wonderfully clean, with a well-equipped kitchen — cooking and baking were easy. In addition to an electric stove and microwave there’s a gas grill and an outdoor firepit (plus a smoker!). Great steam in the sauna. A rowing boat with an electric outboard was included and easy to use. We had an excellent time :)

We had a lovely stay for 5 nights with two children. The setting is stunning. The cottage is spacious and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Toys for the children, lots of space outside, and a safe beach (not fully visible in the photos). The water was crystal clear. There is no running water, but you bring it from the lake and Arja provided drinking water. We would definitely come back!

The house is highly recommended for everyone who loves nature. It’s in a wonderful location and very private. Various seating areas around the house; the sauna is great for warming up after a swim. The kitchen has everything you need. Arja is a kind and helpful host. Outside there is plenty of space for ball games with children. We warmly recommend the accommodation. The road (a bit bumpy) wasn’t a problem for us. Shopping is about 30 minutes away.

We had a great time at the cottage. The location is beautiful with a great view of the lake. Sauna and boat were a lot of fun — you can stay for days without getting bored. The cottage is exactly as described and has everything you need. Arja is a great host, responds quickly and is very friendly.

A cottage in a truly wonderful spot. We loved the privacy with no direct view to neighbors. Well equipped, with a view you can enjoy right from the window. From the sauna it’s easy to go for a swim using the steps. This destination definitely makes our top 5 of the many cottages we’ve visited.

This cottage is a gem! Beautiful surroundings, fully equipped, and surprisingly spacious for a larger group. The lakeside sauna and idyllic pier crown a perfect stay. Warm recommendation!

A very peaceful location and high-quality accommodation. A spacious, bright cottage — more like a villa. The kitchen is very well equipped, as is the whole place overall. Great play area for children upstairs. The atmospheric lakeside sauna, newly built from old logs, offers wonderfully gentle steam. Good beach for swimming. A pleasant trail leads to the tip of the headland with lovely rock formations.

We stayed in Konnevesi and the cottage was fantastic! Everything we needed was there and overall the experience was excellent. The sauna and barbecue area were great, and the lake view was simply stunning. Many thanks for the wonderful stay — we’d love to come back. We’ll definitely return again in the summer!
