           Lak060 - Lakeview Lodge
This pretty lakeside log cabin has a kitchen, family dining area, comfortable lounge with a wood burning fireplace, sauna, shower room and two twin/double bedrooms downstairs.

The upstairs has a second smaller sitting area and beds for four (two single beds and two mattresses together as a double). The ceiling upstairs is fairly low, so this area is ideal particularly for children and teenagers. The decor in the cabin is typically Finnish and the furniture is mainly of light-coloured wood.

There is a furnished terrace outdoors for socialising and meals out, while the peaceful cabin grounds include a handy barbecue shelter, garden swing and a sand pit for children. The beautiful lake shore has a wooden pier, rowing boat and a lakeside sauna that includes a simple sitting area with a wood burning fireplace.

The cabin is located by Hankavesi Lake in a tranquil and secluded position, where you can swim, enjoy walks and cycle in summer and cross-country ski in winter. Bicycles (2), cross-country skis and a motor boat can be hired from the owners by prior arrangement.
