Unique design & pure nature

By Lake Mustajärvi, surrounded by birch and pine, this 1970s log cabin sleeps four (+2) guests. It blends retro charm, Finnish design, and an original 60s sauna with a modern outhouse.

Big windows frame the forest and lake, while cosy bunk beds with memory-foam mattresses and soft bedding ensure a good night’s sleep. The well-equipped kitchen and terrace among the trees are perfect for meals and relaxing in the afternoon sun.

The forest is full of berries and mushrooms, and the lake is ready to explore with a traditional rowing boat. Whether you want to swim, fish, or just relax, it’s a peaceful bit of Finnish wilderness.
