“Strong recommendation”
The place is even better than on the pictures. There are two saunas, one in the house and one in a hut. The one is the hut is a wood burning sauna and it is right next to the lake. The kitchen is large and fully loaded with anything you would need. The beds are very comfortable. The surrounding area is beautiful.

“Relaxing and picturesque spot with amazing view of the lake”
We had the 27 E, which was modern & was equipped with a private hot tub, 2 saunas, 3 bicycles and the selling point, THE FREE BOAT! Having a master bedroom with a set of toilet and bathroom downstairs worked very well for us! There were 3 other bedrooms with the second set of toilet and bathroom upstairs. The view of the lake from the inside was amazing. The large balcony looking out to the lake equipped with BBQ facility & dinning table was the cherry on top. A very peaceful and quiet place with abundance of free outdoor activities. Fishing gear & stand up paddle could be hired with reasonable price. There were abundance of plates, glasses, cutleries and cups. The hot tub was filled for us and ready to use. We appreciated the dryer in the laundry. Lots of timbers were supplied for the sauna and fire pit. Absolutely loved the view of the lake & having a boat, which you could either paddle or drive and immerse in tranquility of the nature.

“We loved our stay despite the initial scare of having ended up in Russia by accident. Beautiful stay by the stunning lak”
The house is a generous size. Kitchen is well equipped ( apart from a missing wine bottle opener ) but all one needs is there. The sauna was a very good size and well maintained apart from the terrace. Location was great- the swims at the lake were amazing. Lots of wild strawberries and even chanterelle mushrooms at the door step. Very quiet and peaceful right in the middle of beautiful nature.

“a good place to have a short rest in a good company”
A spacious, high, bright hall with air-conditioning in the house, a very good sauna with firewood on the shore, a boat at the disposal of guests, a lot of different equipment on the sports ground, devices for grilling on gas and for grilling on charcoal or wood

“Perfect wilderness, lake, forest and luxurious accommodation.”
Location on Lake Saimaa beautiful. We were in the wilderness like we had hoped. Such a fun drive down the “driveway” to the house which in itself was 5km. We were originally booked in cottage c, but upgraded to cottage e which was very private. This cottage had an indoor electric sauna within the shower room/laundry. It also came with a separate building that had a wood fired larger sauna, sitting room and an outdoor wood fired hot tub on the decking area (I understand in cottage c and d you share the outside sauna building). Loved feeding the fires to heat the outdoor hot tub and separate sauna. Never met staff because everything was perfect, but was lovely dealing with Olga over WhatsApp before and during our stay if we had any questions. The house is well equipped with great sized rooms. It would be lovely in winter with the wood fire burning. But the most magical thing is the scenery of the lake and the surrounding woods. The house is literally dropped into nature. We loved having the little row boat throughout our stay. We were unprepared for the insects and our family got covered in 100s of mosquito bites our first night. This was just a lack of research on our part, but I would come prepared next time with all the gadgets to ward off mosquitos etc next time! We had some great adventures around the Lake Saimaa/ Imatra/ Karelia area.
