Why it's special

The cottage combines a calm riverside setting with a practical layout for small groups or families. You get an electric sauna, a combined kitchen and living room, and sleeping space spread across a downstairs bedroom, a loft, and a sofa bed. The riverbank is left in its natural state, so this is a stay for enjoying the landscape rather than swimming. Fishing and hiking are the main outdoor draws, and the winter trail passes right by the cottage.

About this stay

This cottage sits in a peaceful spot on the Kitkajoki River in Kuusamo, with no neighbors close by and a natural river shore just 30 metres away. Inside, the combined kitchen and living room gives you one easy shared space, and the electric sauna adds a warm finish to the day.

The cottage sleeps up to six guests across a downstairs bedroom, a loft, and a sofa bed in the living room. It works well for a small family or a group of friends looking for a quiet base in nature, and the whole semi-detached house can be rented for a larger party.

Outside, the area is made for fishing and hiking, and the Verne wilderness trail passes by in winter. The riverbank is in its natural state and is not suitable for swimming, so the focus here is on the landscape, the water, and the outdoor setting around Ruka.

Practical details are straightforward: final cleaning is included, WiFi is available, and there is an electric car charging station with 16A power at no extra charge.
