Relaxing place

The simplicity of things but comfortable and warm and clean. Beautiful nature and good energy. I could relax very well and recharge. The staff was polite and the food was good. I loved staying there and I would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

Affordable, cute and friendly place

Great camping spot with cute pods and cottages. Very good value for money for a few-night stay. The pods are well heated and clean. In the camp you find a well-equipped kitchen, a spacious dining area, showers and even bathtubs!

Pods are great and cozy. Our only complaint is the bed - the mattress was in a bad condition (all bumpy and springs sticking out). But the view of aurora was amazing!

Cute pod

The pod was very cute and cosy. We were there early and got to use the hot tubs when it was just us.

Great please , great amenities, dark skies for seeing the northern lights

Distance to the shower block was not the best and the site itself is quite remote. When Icy the entrance can be tricky if you dint have a 4WD vehicle

Overall, the facilities were pretty good. However, when we wanted to explore the area before leaving, the staff forceful

The facilities are well provided and can all be used independently.

A wondrous place to stay, location was perfect. We’ll be back

What a magical little place. The cabins were perfect, well heated. Mattress was comfy. The amenities were clean and had everything we needed. The troll garden overlooking the view was incredible. What originally was booked as affordable accommodation, quickly became our favourite place we’ve stayed so far. What a find! 10/10
