GUEST REVIEWS
|
"It was lovely and we loved Finland. The cabin was clean, the
farm beautiful, the lake was nice to swim in, the sauna was good
and they let us pick berries. Please thank the owners. They were
really wonderful people."
M. Polge, England
_______________
"We had a
wonderful time in Finland. I booked the cabin as a surprise
holiday for myself and my girlfriend and I proposed to her in
the cabin. She said yes! Needless to say, the place was the
ideal setting. The cabin was great. We will go back!"
J. Douglas,

"We had a
wonderful time at the cabin! It was perfect."
F. Sierra te
Grotenhuis, Finland
_______________
"We had a
wonderful time in Viurunniemi. The whole area is just beautiful,
serene and unspoilt. We found it hard not to relax. The cabin
was nice as well: clean, cosy and larger than expected. Pristine
lakes and forests all around, but with the convenience of
Outokumpu (shops) nearby (20 mins). I would definitely recommend
this place to other travellers."

- Woodland Log Cabin
This log cabin is
ideal for a couple, but can sleep up to 5 people. The cabin has a good standard of
amenities, an open plan
kitchen and dining area, lounge, sauna, shower, wood burning
fireplace and a double bedroom. Additional three people can be
accommodated on sofa beds in lounge if required.
The cabin is located in
an idyllic countryside setting overlooking Juojärvi Lake, where swans rest on their way to north in the springtime. A
small path from the cabin leads to a private lake shore and a small
beach for swimming 100m away. You will also find a two-seater garden
swing and a rowing boat at the shore.
The
cabin owners grow a number of different types of berries including strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and currents, that
can be picked
for a small charge. A canoe can be borrowed from the
owners, while bicycles (2) can be hired for a small charge.
Christmas tree and
a visit from Santa are included in all bookings over the Christmas
period. Toboggans and snowshoes are also available.
Country breakfast
service is available by prior booking May-September at the cabin owners' sun
room nearby for max. 4 people for an additional charge.
Cabin
amenities:
Wood burning sauna, shower, WC, fireplace and logs, microwave, electric oven
and hobs, TV, radio, electric heating, coffee maker, rowing boat, hoover, iron, fridge/freezer, car heating point and an
outdoor barbecue area. A baby bed can be arranged by prior

Location:
The cabin is located 15km from Outokumpu and 40km from Joensuu
Airport. All
local amenities are a short drive away and a mobile food shop makes a
stop nearby once a week. The helpful owners
live nearby, if you happen to need any assistance.
Outokumpu
town has a small variety of shops and restaurants, while the larger Joensuu
about 45km away provides an excellent day trip destination with its beautiful
harbour, bustling market place and a variety of department stores,
restaurants, cafes and bars.
For
culture and religion, visit the fascinating Valamo
Monastery in Heinävesi just a short drive away. The
Monastery is the centre of Orthodox religion and worship in Finland and
a visit there offers you a rare insight into the daily life of the resident monks.
If you
are interested in nature and wildlife, make a trip to the bird towers of
Sysmäjärvi Lake, one of the top ten bird-watching lakes in
Finland, or rent a canoe and follow the popular canoeing trail through
12 small lakes. For golf, head for the 9-hole Keretti
Golf Course 15km away.
Kolovesi
National Park
65km away is a 23km² area of lakes, woods and rock walls
reaching as high as 40m. The park was formed
during the last ice age and you can still spot signs of life from the
stone ages. The park today is inhabited by endangered Saimaa seals,
trekkers and canoeists.
