Holiday rentals with a kayak in Finland

Really atmospheric and cozy place. A cozy yard, yard games and beautiful flowers. The old-fashioned sauna was a familiar experience and a return to childhood. The bear was excited about the toy world upstairs. Everything you need was found in the kitchen, including baking. Really good location next to the lake, swimming and hiking trails in the forest. The old nostalgic playground was a nice surprise, the child enjoyed it. You could come back here!

Juhas Villa is one of the best accommodations i‘ve been to during all my Journeys. It‘s located very beautiful and private near a huge lake. The Villa is spacious and equipped very well. It‘s 30 minutes from Ranua by car away. So it’s a good Place to visit for example the Ranua Wildlife Park. We also Went to Korouoma Canyon from Juhas Villa. It’s easy to get to the Villa by car, Even in Winter when the streets are a Little Snowy. We (5 people) have been there in March with a rentalcar. Juha is so friendly, Helpful and polite! He Went icefishing with us on the lake and offered us warm Drinks and Snacks. The best things of the Villa were the Sauna, the whirlpool and spotting the polarlights out of the livingroom. I can absolutely recommend Juhas Villa and I‘d love to come back, maybe in Summer next time! Everything was Perfect, thank you!

Overall every good experience staying here. Beautiful and stunning views of the lake and trees x. The sauna is also very good. But watch out if you park your cars at the yard, there are trees and rocks you need to pay attention to.

A paradise in nature. The most beautiful and perfect AirBnb we've ever experienced. It was a dream to be in. Everything was new and very well maintained. Hannu has thought of everything - from the beautiful boat, small path to his own island with barbecue area to the complete furnishings of garden furniture, fly screens and a beautiful sauna. Nature is indescribable! In four hours, we rowed around the big lake. You can experience the Finnish lakes landscape in full splendor ... water, vastness, trees, sky ... The villa is so private, there are no neighbors far and wide. You are alone and enjoy the luxury of the villa. Ulla and Hannu live 1 km away and are there to take care of you if you need anything. Don't think, book it, you'll find a gem. In addition, it is on the right side with sun until midnight in summer. Unforgettable.

The house is exceptional, beautiful and right on the lake. The decor is natural, modern and with lots of wood; we felt very comfortable from the first moment. Note the very secluded location; the nearest shopping (supermarket) is about a 15-minute drive away. But with appropriate planning, that's no problem either. We enjoyed the quiet idyllic location very much.

Wonderful place and you will be impressed. Only thing that would make it even more amazing would be not have to share the dock / sauna / jacuzzi with the neighboring building in 2 hour shifts. It destroys the spontaneity of a vacation and heating up the sauna takes forever so it might not be even super hot once you start and then you may have 30min left in your 2 hour slot

We have had a wonderful short stay at the Mökki. Check in was super easy, everything was as it was described. Comfortable beds, amazing view, quiet & peaceful. A great sauna! Johanna replies very fast. Definitely recommend this place and hope we can be back for a longer stay next time. Kiitos paljon, Johanna!

Beautiful quiet retreat on a lush island. Everything you need to relax and enjoy your time is provided. There was even a midsummer traditional treat waiting for us. Satu is kind and responsive. She makes sure her guests are comfortable and enjoy their stay. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing stay here, with 4 adults and 3 children (and a small dog). Lots of berry and mushroom picking, canoeing, enjoying the beautiful lake, sauna and hot tub and even catching a few fishes. No need to go anywhere else, there is more than enough to do on the property and surroundings. Pentti was always very responsive and nice. There was everything we needed. We will definitely be coming back here and wish we’d been able to stay longer.

Yanina and Jukka Pekka offered us a lot of activities to do around. A big thank you for the tree that we were able to cut and then decorate ourselves. The walk to see the northern lights was superb. We highly recommend it. anne

I highly recommend staying at this wonderful cottage. It’s exceptionally well equipped — we found everything we could possibly need, and it was easy to navigate thanks to clear instructions and English labels throughout. The cottage’s design is thoughtful and practical, with plenty of space to unpack and store belongings, which really makes a difference during a longer stay. Malin is a fantastic host — warm, helpful, and welcoming. She even invited us to join the local Juhannus celebrations, which was a truly special experience we’ll always remember. We’re very grateful for her hospitality.

We spent a relaxing and pleasant midsummer among friends at Jere's cottage. The cottage offered an excellent setting and Jere gave clear instructions and tips for everything related to accommodation and entertainment!

The cottage was in a nice and quiet location. Also, the short distance to Koli is definitely a plus.

You can't help but enjoy the shores of Venesjärvi! For the second time, we spent a pleasant weekend barbecuing, rowing, sauna, swimming and lounging. We also stopped by the Meggala winery, which was a walking distance from the cottage. 😍 Thank you for the great setting!

We thoroughly enjoyed the time that we spent at Olli and Una’s cabin. The cabin is very cozy - we built fires every night that we were there with the firewood that was provided. The cabin is at the end of the road so it was very peaceful. We ate our breakfast in the cabin very day and felt that the kitchen was very well equipped. The beds were very comfortable!

Delightful cottage in a great location. We found everything we needed. Communication with the host was straightforward and seamless. Highly recommended!

Photos don’t do this beautiful alpine cottage justice! Such a peaceful and private location. The cabins have been cleverly modernised without losing touch with the rustic charm. The hosts were great to deal with.

Just an amazing cottage near a beautiful lake. Very beautifully decorated, peaceful vibe. It was a very positive experience and would definitely recommend to others. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely cottage!

The best thing about this cottage was the great view of the peaceful lake. It was really nice to have dinner on the glazed terrace and watch the sunset. The cottage was very clean and well-equipped. Special mention of the air conditioning, which helped to keep the lower and upper floors cool. Jarkko was a really friendly landlord and responded to messages and questions quickly. All in all, we had a really successful long weekend at this cottage.

Staying at Marie’s cabin was everything we needed and more. From the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into a peaceful fairytale — the kind of place you dream about when life gets too loud. Nestled deep in the forest, the cabin offered total tranquility, but without sacrificing comfort. Everything was impeccably clean, thoughtfully designed, and filled with cozy touches that made it feel like home. Marie was a truly exceptional host — warm, responsive, and full of local tips that made our stay even more special. You can tell she genuinely cares about the guest experience. We especially loved the wood-burning stove, the big windows looking out onto the trees, and the morning coffee on the porch with birdsong all around. Thank you Marie.

We had an amazing time at the cabin. The mökki was charming, with very confortable beddings, a well equipped kitchen. We are delighted with our stay, and we will definitely visit again. Thank you Eerika for these amazing 4 days. Kiitos paljon ❤️

This was our second time at this location and already planning the third visit for later in the year. Ulla is an amazing host, very responsive and so lovely and friendly. The house is wonderful. Peaceful, quiet, the wood burning sauna is amazing and the lake was refreshing. We are definitely coming back again!

This place is a gem! Perfect location, built by hand, amazing hosts and last but not least, the sauna was the best! Very helpful and friendly hosts, even booked us a taxi back to Jyvaskyla train station for our early departure. An easy 5 stars, would recommend to anyone. Sitting by the woodstove was the best way to end the day after hiking on the trails in the magical forest close to the BnB.

This stay was MAGIC! We cannot thank Lotta and her team enough! It is incredibly romantic. It offers everything you could wish for. All the kitchen supplies, dishwasher, washing machine, sauna, snowshoes, a hut for cooking over a fire. Your own access to the lake. It feels like you and nature. We were also able to observe one of the most powerful boreal auras ever seen (by us) two nights in a row. The sauna and the dip in the snow renewed our energy. Lotta was really nice and answered all our questions quickly, making us feel cared for. We leave our hearts and souls here and wish you, too, the chance to get in touch with this magical land.
