    Everything was top notch. The facilities, the contact with the landlord, the location and many more were high class.

    Great house and position. It is located outside the center and is the right place to look at polar lights. The Host was helpful and available for any request. We stayed 6 nights and choosing a house instead of an hotel was the right choose...

Mauno
Villa Porkka was originally built for a family living and its location is not far away from the main shopping area with big markets. At the same time it is not too far from winter time visitors' activities like skiing, skating and husky safaries. The nearby lake makes it possible to fish both during the winter and in particular summer time fly fishing, spinning or simple angling. A rowing boat (just 200 meters away) will be available for guests to use should their wish so. Even fishing nets will be provided on request. Permits are required for fishing and available at the shopping markets area. Should you travel by road the map attached to the pictures will show you the location.
I myself am well traveled all around the world. In connection of my professional duties over 30 years as an international civil servant I visited some 50 countries and thereby can offer my personal experiences as a traveler and a stranger in a foreign country. During the winter months I am most of time abroad and a reliable couple who live in the neighborhood will take care of the property to ensure that all is working well there.
Kuusamo area is one of the most popular tourist centers in Finland and growing fast as a favorite place to visit not only by the native Finns but increasingly by Central Europeans, Russians and recently Asians, mainly Chinese.
