Lovely stay
We stayed in Appartment F. The site is beautiful and well cared for. It's about 20 minute drive to Rovaniemi. The site is next to a river which froze over winter. There is a lovely hut here which has an evening fire. You can also ice bath and enjoy a hot tub here. The room we stayed in was incredible. It included a sauna which was very welcome. The room was big, cozy and well equipped for our stay. The beds were super comfy and had a lot of room around them too. The staff were helpful and friendly. Breakfast was a lovely buffet which included cooked items as well as local cuisine. We will be coming back and I would recommend others to visit!

Lovely hotel, comfy beds, quiet, nice breakfast buffet each morning. Isolated. The restaurant was closed except for breakfast since it’s the off-season; that was a bit of a nuisance, but they sell snacks in the lobby. Sauna available in the evenings.
