The northern lights can be experienced right on the terrace. They weren't lying about the pictures. Just step outside the door and enjoy. The reindeer farm was also next door. Perfect location

“Enjoyable, easy and comfortable.”
The room we had booked was accidentally double booked so we got a free upgrade on our room. Additionaly I forgot my jacket on the front porch, they messaged me about it and sent it through mail to me.

“The perfect winter location”
I had wanted to book Saivaara Cottages a couple of years ago during the Covid nonsense over New Year, but someone obviously booked before I managed to arrange the flights; and whoever booked was unbelievably lucky, because the place is simply fantastic - and we got to enjoy it for 8 days this year before Christmas. Simply put, Saivaara Cottages are wonderful - the accommodation, the owners, the location - everything about the place is superb; and we will be coming again. We have stayed elsewhere in Kilpisjarvi before, but Saivaara Cottages was most definitely worth the wait. Hopefully Saivaara Cottages will have space for us net time.
