Why it's special

The cabin has a true lakeside setting with its own boat, a shared sandy beach, and easy access to fishing for whitefish, salmon, and vendace. Inside, the living room and kitchen are paired with an electric sauna and a heat pump for comfort in every season, while Ruka’s ski slopes and trails are close enough for simple day trips.

About this stay

This cabin stands on the southern shore of Porontimajärvi in Kuusamo, with the lake just 40 metres away and a shared sandy beach at the water’s edge. It sleeps up to six in one bedroom with a double bed and two sofa beds in the living room, making it a straightforward base for a small family or two couples.

The living room and kitchen form the main gathering space, and the cabin is equipped for easy stays with an electric sauna, a heat-storing fireplace, and an air-source heat pump that cools in summer and warms in winter. There is also an electrified cooking hut outside, and the cabin has its own rowing boat for time on the lake.

Porontimajärvi is known for fishing, with whitefish, salmon, and vendace among the catches here, and the hard-bottomed beach gives you a simple place to swim and spend time by the water. East Ruka is about 8 km away, West Ruka about 14.6 km, and ski tracks, a national park, and snowmobile routes are all within reach for active days in the area. Final cleaning is included.
