JulianeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Appartement next to the lake (perfect wide space to see Aurora) and just a few kilometers from the airport of Ivalo (but it is a quiet space, we could not hear the aircrafts). The house got everything you need. In less than half an hour you can drive to Saariselkä there you can do crosscountry skiing an other activities. It was a pleasure to meet Anna, she is heartfelt, answered our questions really quick, gave us many tipps and we could even taste the fresh fish after ice fishing. We really recommend Annas place! We will come back.

Our Stay at Essie’s and Pieter’s Cabin was marvelous. The Cabin was really cute and convenient, the location was perfect, close to the nature and in a calm place. It was perfect to stay during winter, and we will come back someday to discover the place during summer !

Beautiful riverside cottage with sauna & hot tub

IanRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Such a picturesque spot, the photos don’t do it justice. Cabin was comfortable and warm and sauna and hot tub were welcome. Anne-Marie was super helpful and arranged winter clothes, snowshoes, huskies and snowmobiles for us. We also hired a car from north 70, who own this place- really easy to collect at ivalo airport and drop off there again when we’re finished with it. The car is pretty old but works well and the 4x4 is good on the ice and snow. The supermarket in nuorguam is big and had everything we needed whilst we were there.

Traditional Lapland Cabin

AlexandraRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This was one of the nicest vacations we had! Janne made our stay very special by always being there if we needed anything and the absolute amazing adventures we had with him! Highly recommending this place if you want to experience how the fins live and have a traditional cabin. The location was amazing, surrounded by four lakes which were beautifully covered in snow. The forest looked so magical and it was so silent! It’s a perfect place to relax, especially with the sauna and hot tub and you’re all by yourself. We highly recommend the activities they offer! Our favorite was the reindeer farm, it was so beautiful and the owners were so nice and welcoming. We already miss the cabin so much, it is truly a special place to stay! Thank you so much Janne and Rebecca for making this stay so perfect for us, always being there when needed and telling us so much about Finland! Also for always making sure we got everything we need🥰

Ivalo, Happy Aurora - house by the river

SamanthaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Maria's place is exactly as seen in her photos. As the house faces the Inari river, it looks absolutely beautiful with the snow and my family and I were walking around the area. We stayed at her place in late march, so the river is still frozen so we could even walk on the frozen river! Her place is well equipped with everything you would have (and love to have) in a house. It was super cozy and lovely to stay here. Favorite part of the house was the kitchen and living room because of the view and the sun shining into the place. Maria was also very friendly, she dropped by the place to have a chat with us. Gave us local recommendations of places to visit. Do recommend staying at her place when you are in Ivalo!

Cosy little, well equipped cottage by the lake

VinceRating, 5 stars1 month ago

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!

We had a wonderful stay at Johanna's place. The apartment was very nicely furnished with attention to detail and very clean. The kitchen was very well equipped. The area is quiet, private and great for watching the Northern Lights. At Johanna's, we saw the strongest northern lights of our lives. Johanna herself was a very likeable host.

A magical log cabin with Northern Lights view

Maggie’s accommodation is a fairytale-like place in a picture-perfect setting. We had the Northern Lights right in front of the terrace and looked forward to the sauna and the cozy stove at home after every adventure. We would have loved to stay longer and are 100% thrilled with both the accommodation and the area.

Traditionally crafted log cabin by the lake Inari

5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviews1 month ago

Exceptional and magical, we have no other words. The photos speak for themselves, the cabin is luxurious and the views are breathtaking. The location is amazing, surrounded by wilderness, facing Inari Lake. It's much more than a place to stay, it's an experience to live once in your life (and it won't be the last for us;)). We spent 2 nights under the Northern Lights, explored the frozen lake (sledding with our 2-year-old daughter and snowshoeing on a small hill where the view of the hundreds of islands in Lake Inari was breathtaking.) We also grilled S 'mores in the fire, enjoyed sauna sessions followed by rolling in the snow, searched for water in a hole dug in the ice... Everything is very well thought out so as not to miss anything and live an authentic experience in Lapland. A big thank you to Pekka for sharing this little place of paradise. In short, we recommend it to everyone, you have to live it to believe it...

White Creek Wilderness Cabin

5 out of 5 average rating, 36 reviews1 week ago

It is hard to adequately describe this cabin; we had such a wonderful escape here. We stayed for 4 nights and although the weather was very good to us we felt assured that we would have enjoyed it whatever season we had visited. Mika ensures everything you need is there and you should not visit without doing one of his trips/activities - we spent a fabulous afternoon ice fishing, followed by dinner, expertly cooked on the campfire. Thank you so much for an unforgettable experience - we definitely won't forget cracking the ice for a swim, in between saunas.

Villa Jääskönsaari

Our experience in Lapland, Rovaniemi, still felt like stepping into a living fairy tale,so surreal and breathtaking that it was hard to believe such a place could exist outside of dreams.Otherworldly landscape that felt like a scene from an animated movie.Our cabin, nestled deep in the wilderness, was a cozy wooden haven surrounded by towering trees.The silence was almost magical, interrupted only by the distant whisper of the wind and the occasional crackling of the fireplace. It was the kind of peacefulness that made us feel like the only people in the world.Lapland’s beauty didn’t disappoint. So thankful of Jouko’s dad who remains us of our grandpa, very nice, respectful and loving person, he made sure that we’re having a good time at the cabin and nothing is missing to us. Even with language barrier we managed somehow to have little chitchat with him and laughing together, he was so nice. Also thanks to Jouku for answering anytime and trying to help us.

Automatic check-in but immediate presence and constant availability of the owners. Kirssi gave us a special welcome: beautiful fresh flowers, wine and chocolates. The house is beautiful and equipped with everything you need to make your vacation perfect. The location on the lake is magical, 10 minutes from Ivalo where there are 2 large and comfortable supermarkets, a pharmacy and a gas station. We found the house already perfectly heated and also supplied with excellent wood for the comfortable and romantic fireplace. Matti was very kind to come and show us how to turn it on safely right away. One of the best Airbnb stays we've ever had. Absolutely recommended.

Log cabin on the banks of the Ounas River

4.82 out of 5 average rating, 49 reviews1 month ago

The stay at Jemina and Jupe's was the most beautiful part of our short Lapland vacation (6 days of which 2 were at Jemina's). If you're looking for a place off the beaten track and a real Lappish experience, then this Airbnb is for you… as long as you let Jupe and his snowmobile take you around the woods. We had an unforgettable day with him, complete with lucky fishing (I caught a trout :-)) on the frozen lake. Jupe was also very attentive to the wishes of our two children, whom he also let ride his snowmobile (with him) for a good part of the journey. He entertained us with his hunting stories and helped us solve a small problem with our car. Absolutely recommended

Rafi - Aurora Cabin 2

MihaiRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This is sort of an unique place. If you are looking for a quiet little cabin in the wood in order to reconnect this is the right choice. Certain aspects are a bit strange, but this is due to location and so on. Great experience and the hot tub during the night with the snow...it is totally worth it!

АнтонRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Our stay at Tarja and Scott’s house was one of the best adventures of our lives. Even before the trip, they were very kind and helpful. When we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and had everything we needed. The house was cozy and warm, with plenty of firewood. There is also a beautiful kota near the house where we could cook on the fire and watch the northern lights. We were lucky to see the aurora five nights in a row. Scott also gave us great advice about hiking and kindly let us stay a bit longer on our last day. Before we left, we had a nice talk and learned more about his life. We will always remember this peaceful place by the lake and hope to return one day. :)

A serene winter scene showcases two houses surrounded by snow-covered trees under a starry sky. The northern lights illuminate the night with vibrant green hues, creating a captivating natural display.

Very beautiful place to stay even for a longer period of time. There’s cooking appliances and food for everyone. We stayed only for two nights but it was a really nice time. We had the possibility to see the northern light just outside the house for one night and it was very exciting! The location is amazing, a very good place to stay if you’re looking for peace and calm. I really recommend it!

SusanneRating, 5 stars2 months ago

This place and its surroundings are simply so beautiful! As much coziness, peace and quiet as you can wish for. And still so much to do and see! We recommend a day trip to Tanamunningen / Høyholmen as well as exploration of the nature just around the cottage, snow shoes made that easy. We were a bit unlucky with the weather as can always happen but the house absolutely made up for that: great sauna, fireplace, grilling sausage outside by the fire in the snow and playing board games and simply watching the amazing landscape. Thank you for having us, Janne and greetings and special thanks to Armas!
