    “Beautiful peaceful location. Distant from city life, but in fair proximity to all that may be needed. Ver well planned, spacious inside. Comfortable wide double bed. Functional kitchen with running water. Fireplace and sauna work just fine....”

    “Ihastuttava mökki luonnon keskellä! Kaunis, tunnelmallinen sisustus ja mökki oli hyvin varusteltu kaikin puolin. Saunassa sai todella hyvät löylyt. Avantoa emme valitettavasti päässeet tällä reissulla kokeilemaan. Mökin terassi sopi mainiosti...”

Experience the unique Lapland nature in a handcrafted traditional log cabin, completed in 2023, located on the banks of Äkäsjoki River (2+4 people). The cabin offers a stunning river view, a traditional wood-burning sauna, and a year-round cold plunge pool "Avanto", where the water flows from a natural spring. Please note that the cabin does not have a shower or a separate bathroom; washing takes place in the traditional sauna, where you heat the water while heating the sauna. You will need skills to make a fire to heat up the stove inside the cabin, if it is really cold outside(more than -15°C). Situated 100 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle, right in the heart of nature, and just a 35-minute drive away from the activities in Ylläs. Ideal for those interested in Lapland's nature, Ylläs' services, skiing, as well as hunting and fishing. You have your private shoreline at 40 meters, Muoninojoki River at 4 kilometers, and state hunting grounds at 100 meters.
