Ihana paikka kauniin luonnon keskellä
Mukava paikka kertakaikkiaan. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja avuliasta. Ympäristö upea, siistiä. Kokeilemme läheistä ulkoilureittiä suosittelun perusteella ja saimme tutustua siten paikalliseen luontoon. Nauttimamme ateriat olivat maistuvia. Syvennys joessa rannassa pulahtamista varten oli aivan huippua. Kovasta helteestä johtuen jätettiin sauna tällä kertaa väliin.

Perfect place!
친절한 호스트, 직원과 방문객, 깨끗하고 편안한 숙소, 무엇보다도 순수한 자연 경관을 그대로 지닌 최고의 장소입니다. 다시 핀란드를 방문하게 된다면 반드시 다시 오고 싶네요. 초등학생 아이가 너무나 좋아했습니다. 얼음 낚시, 얼음물 입수, 스키 등 여러 즐길거리가 있습니다. 여행을 종종 다니는데 이렇게 후기까지 자세히 남기기는 처음일 정도로 마음에 들었던 숙소입니다.

We felt at home right from the start. The surroundings, the peace and quiet, the food, the possibility to hire skis and snowshoes, the friendliness of all the staff and of course the northern lights and reindeer right on the doorstep. Simply a dream. We would love to come back and have already recommended it to others.

Ajaa asiansa jos on vailla yösijaa, henkilökuntaa näyttää olevan rajoitetusti. Joten ideana lienee asiakkaiden omatoimisuus, mikä ei tietenkään ole pelkästään huono asia. Sehän tuo tietynlaista rentoutta meininkiin.
