This silver log cottage sits in Juuka, in the Koli area of North Karelia, about 80 km north of Joensuu. It is set in nature on the shore of Lake Pielinen, with its own sandy, shallow beach and boat access.
Inside, the cottage has a kitchen-living room, one sleeping room with a double bed, and a sleeping gallery with a double bed, a 120 cm bed and a convertible sofa. The cottage sleeps up to six, and the living spaces are arranged for a simple, practical stay close to the water.
A wood-heated sauna, washroom, terrace and balcony bring the classic Finnish holiday feel. You can also book a hot tub for an extra charge, and the owner fills it, heats it and gives instructions for use.
Outside, a pedal boat and canoe are available, and the setting offers good possibilities for fishing. Check-in is from 16:00 and check-out is by 12:00, including weekend stays. Water levels can vary, so the shoreline and beach conditions may change.
