Vacation rentals with lake access in Øksnes

Lovely cosy cabin in peaceful surroundings. We felt right at home and really enjoyed beautiful Vesterålen. Location was great with many beautiful beaches and hikes around the corner. Good location near the Joker (for groceries) as well. Everything was described and the house was well-equipped with kitchen and bathroom essentials. Big thank you to the host for providing everything we needed!

The house is right at the edge of a fjord, with spectacular views from any window. very quiet and peaceful. I'm really going to miss this place.

We can only agree with the good reviews of the other guests. The cottage is very lovingly decorated and really cozy, feel-good factor very high. House fully equipped, everything is actually available. Great kitchen invites you to cook, the coffee maker makes an excellent coffee, it's fun to just linger in the house, enough space, large dining table, fireplace, as beautiful as in the pictures. We rarely slept so well on our vacations, very comfortable beds. Everything very clean. An ideal location for nature-loving, very quiet and yet very close to refueling, shop and shopping in Sortland. Very central to explore Vesteralen. Close to the lake, a beautiful mountain panorama with clear skies. With Therese and Ron, despite the bad weather, we spent 4 beautiful winter tales days, you would love to stay. We highly recommend this place, it's definitely one of the best. Thank you for the loving care!

The house is in a small community (Gisloy) which itself is on a little peninsula (Gisloya) that is mostly a nature reserve. The view from the dining table, with the sea and the mountains, is fantastic. The house is a family property since a century, and it is clear the family loves the house. If you like peace and quietness, you will enjoy this place: Gisloy is 7 km away from the next buildings (where you can find a nice coffee bar in a 2nd hand shop -- it's the nearest place where you can spend money). The larger village Myre is 15 km away, this is a place with supermarkets. There are several good hikes within driving distance, but they are not 'walks in the park'. We very much enjoyed the whale watching safari that started from Sto: we could observe 6 killer whales during almost an hour, at a distance of 5 to 50 m. Very much recommended, but beware that the success depends on the weather an on chance. The restaurants in Nyksund were a hit too (the road to get there is 'challenging').

We spent three wonderful days on Skogsøya. The house, although not traditional in style, was superbly positioned overlooking the sea and the neighbouring islands. The huge picture windows give an ever changing view that in real life are much better than the photos. We walked the coast road and several of the footpaths some of which climb hills behind the house and offer views over Vesterålen. You can hike to the north coast, but it gets very boggy beyond the big lake. Check the ferry timetable before travelling and if you arrive on a Sunday remember to do your shopping the day before! We would wholeheartedly recommend staying in Anders place on this magical island.

Host: Friendly, patient, helpful. Accommodation: a beautiful house, with a private road and property. A great view, whether living room or bedroom/bathroom. Would love to come back. Dogs were also no problem. In front of the house you can also fish🎣. Since it snowed the whole time (early/mid-April), the private road to the driveway was even cleared for us by "the neighbors?"

Thanks a lot for great stay. Our guys felt like at home. Host is very helpful and flexible with our extended booking. Best of luck!

To stay at Håvard's place is a treat. You will live in an authentic farm house where every little corner has been set up to store things. This has been by far one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. Strongly recommended.
