Family-friendly holiday rentals in Saimaa

Nothing to complain about :)

If you're out for modern pampering, this is not for you.But if you want ti be alone by the lake, without a shower and regular toilet, but wit a row boat, wood fired sauna and hot tub, compost toilets (but also electricity, full kitchen, cellular coverage and tv) and most if all the amazing beauty around (incl. mosquitoes) memorable, then definitely go fir it. we had a wonderful time.

We had a magical stay. Everything is beautiful, the setting, the accommodation, the beach, the sound... even better than the photos suggest. Uta is a very considerate host, and kind and ready to give good advice on things to do in the area. I would highly recommend it. If we have the opportunity we will happily come back.

An atmospheric and well-equipped cottage with good outdoor terrain. Not spoiled, but we found everything we needed. In the summer, I'm sure it's even nicer, when you can use the outdoor patio and other outdoor areas, now it's not a joy in the rain.

Juha, is very flexible and friendly. Everything went as expected and the location very comfortable. The Sauna was fantastic and there were convenience stores close to the location.

This house is what you want for yourself. Kari has created a really beautiful place for himself and his family. Everything you needed was really there.

Wonderful house very well equipped, with a magnificent view. Kristian was kind to us, very kind and very responsive. We recommend this house. 5 stars.

Paradise on Earth! Our stay at this beautiful lakefront property in Kangasniemi was nothing short of perfect. The location is incredibly peaceful and private, offering a true escape into nature. We loved having not one, but two saunas to enjoy—the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring the surrounding area. The house itself was spacious, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Waking up to serene lake views and being able to take a quick dip after heating up in the outside sauna was a highlight of our trip. One thing to note: linens and towels aren’t included, so be sure to negotiate those with the host beforehand if you need them. If you’re looking for a place to relax and recharge in total tranquility, this is the spot. We can’t recommend it enough!

Super cozy cottage. Everything was super explained, we had a great weekend with lots of walks. Highly recommend it:)

Aovo’s House is one of my favorite place to stay in Finland. Perfect place in every espect! Will come again soon 😀

Manuel ist a super host, very engaged to make our stay pleasant and very discreet. We had access to a beautiful natural beach but also to boats and a very nice fire place wir BBQ facilities. My kids loved the traditional wood sauna and the new hot tube. Thank you again!

A nicely and modernly decorated apartment right in the city center with a market view. It can get loud on the street at night on the weekend, but now it didn't bother you at all. T:Vesa ja Ekaterina

Wonderful place, beautiful house with funny details. Nice environment with private beach. Spacious and comfortable house, perfect for family get together. Working kitchen, with enough of everything. It was an experience to stay here. The hosts great, I admire all the work they put in this unique place.

The place is small but is amazing and has all facilities that you need. We found it clean and cute. It has a private beach so it is easy and safe to get the boat and learn paddling. Thank u very much for the wonderful experience. Hopefully we will come back again to experience the cold season.

Nice experience! Messaging with the host went smoothly, and check-in was successful so I got one-to-one guidance on the stay. The place is wonderfully peaceful and the opposite village sauna can be heard. The canoes were a lovely addition, but I didn't have time to use them. There's no convenience store and no services, so bring your own snacks. Otherwise, a great place to stay!

A very suitable cottage for a few people in a beautiful quiet location by the lake, yet close to the services of Kouvola. There wasn't an oven in the kitchen, but thankfully this was what we did in advance from Google ratings so we knew how to change the menu accordingly. The firewood was quite big and the grill required the purchase of charcoal, but otherwise everything was found and worked. Very nice and helpful owners who helped quickly if needed :)

The accommodation is cozy,very well equipped, tidy. Very perfect for us.

We stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed with the view in front of the cottage. We really like the sauna and bathub . And there is the lake just walk in 150 meters. The kitchen is well equipped.

The room was better than I expected, quite large, we had our own entrance and could park the car in front of it. Toilet was clean but a bit dated. The room had a bunk bed which wasn’t shown in the picture or listed in text. It was fine for us but could be a problem for people with limited mobility. Breakfast was quite basic but nice. I would appreciate if fresh fruit were added though. The place was almost empty which is probably bad for business but was awesome for us. We had a whole empty spa for ourselves :) Checking in and out was seamless and pleasant. We got to keep our room for couple of hours over check out time without any fee.

The house was exactly what we were looking for: a cabin in the middle of the woods, in full contact with nature, perfect for admiring the lake area. We were right on a lake practically everything to ourselves, we also took a nice ride on the lake with the rowboat (there was also the engine but we didn't use it) and the sauna all to ourselves! Awesome!!! In the evening, eating outdoors in silence was wonderful. When we returned to the house we turned on the fireplace, beautiful. The children especially appreciated the darts and the pier on the lake. The house had all the comforts, even if the bathroom was external and organic: a hole with a bucket underneath, where you had to throw fertilizer between times, but it was all reported and it was also fun! The only problem was the cleanliness, because the house was not very clean, but so in the middle of the woods we could safely bear: we cleaned a little and adapted. In general, I highly recommend it!!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this cottage! It was clean, spacious, and perfect for large groups. The place felt brand new, and the view of the lake was simply breathtaking. The BBQ area was the best we’ve ever had at a cottage, and we loved having a pool table to enjoy. The host was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. The lake itself was large and beautiful, and rowing there was an unforgettable experience. The hot tub and sauna were also fantastic additions. Highly recommend!

Visa & Noora were very gracious hosts. They responded to messages very quickly and comprehensively. Their instructions were also extensive and varied. The place is really nice and quiet, so we got to ourselves. Very good for a large group with space for everyone and things to do! Strong recommendation for hosts and the listing!

Hi Aki, Thank you very much for the wonderful stay. We were able to enjoy my mother's 60th my mother's 60th birthday with the family. Your tip for the boat trip in Savonlinna and the restaurant recommendation were both top class. Kind regards
