Cottage · Rovaniemi · Finland
This cozy cottage in Rovaniemi sits right by the Ounasjoki River, with peaceful water views and a natural setting just north of the city. It suits a small group or couple who want sauna time, summer swimming, and quiet evenings outdoors.
The cottage pairs a calm riverside setting with a private-feeling holiday rhythm: sauna on the terrace, a hot tub you can book for extra relaxation, and a lean-to by the shore for slow evenings. The grassy yard, shared beach area, and friendly owner nearby make it easy to settle in while still feeling looked after.
This cozy cottage sits in a beautiful spot on the Ounasjoki River, about 85 km north of Rovaniemi. The river runs peacefully beside the yard, and the natural setting gives the stay a quiet, unhurried feel.
Inside, the cottage has a separate kitchen and a living room with an alcove bed for two, plus a sofa bed for extra guests if needed. The electric sauna stands next to the cottage and comes with a terrace looking out over the river, making it an easy place to cool off after a good steam. Access to the sauna and toilet is via the terrace.
Outside, the grassy yard gives you space to relax and play, with patio furniture for summer days and an atmospheric lean-to on the shore for evening moments. A swimming pool can be arranged in the courtyard in summer, and a hot tub is available for an additional fee. The beach has a shallow gravel and rock bottom, and the yard, beach, lean-to, pool and hot tub are shared with the owner.
Pets are welcome for an extra fee, and the owner lives about 50 metres away, so help is close at hand while your privacy is still respected. The river is also known for fishing, and permits are needed if you want to cast a line.
