Family-friendly holiday rentals in South Savo

Harri's chalet is very well equipped. We didn't miss a thing. As stated in the listing, towels, kitchen towels and sheets are not provided. We had therefore planned this in our suitcases. The environment is very pleasant and quiet. A perfect view of the lake! We even had the chance to see a moose, a magical moment! A car is essential to access the shops. For example, Savonlinna is about 50 km away. The only negative point was the cleanliness on arrival, requiring cleaning before we settled in. Harri was very understanding on this subject. We still recommend it because we had a very good stay.

Terrific cottage with all the possible amenities, including two saunas. One of them has windows looking over the lake. Spacious, excellent construction and quality wood furnishings, and your own dock with boat and rentable gear. The lake is the perfect size - not too large, not too small. The owner is highly responsive and provided a full list of potential activities and potential restaurants.

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.

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.

Very pleasant stay, with everything you need to relaxe. Can warmly recommend this place.

Super nice cottage with beautiful location. Lots of good surfaces and amenities.

We enjoyed the privacy and the beautiful snowy scenery to Lake Simpelejarvi. The host had made us a hole into the lake from the jetty, which we enjoyed dipping into the icy water “avanto” was a great experience :)

This cabin was a perfect break from everyday life. The place is peaceful, with a beautiful lake view. The yard around the cabin is also really nice, cozy, private, and perfect for relaxing. The cabin was super clean, had everything I needed, and everything worked just fine. I slept really well and the smoke sauna and hot tub were a great way to relax in the evenings. Lari was friendly and easy to talk to. He welcomed me personally, showed how things work, and gave helpful tips about the area. I planned to visit Mikkeli, but ended up enjoying the cabin so much that I stayed put. Highly recommended for anyone looking for peace, quality, ease, and a touch of luxury.

very comfortable with a great lake view

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.

Treasure in the lap of Lake Saimaa - atmospheric, beautifully decorated log buildings and good amenities. The gentle steam of the sauna, swimming with the cleanest feet, and the perfect hangouts and dining spaces crowned the experience. And Marja-Tertu's heartfelt welcome with clear instructions made me feel welcome in a summer paradise. We enjoyed it and recommend!

A cozy house with everything you need in a quiet, picturesque location near a lake. We stayed with our 7-month-old baby and our dog. Even though the nights were unusually cool for summer, it was very warm inside the house. Communication with the host was smooth - he responded quickly to all our questions. We highly recommend this place.

We spent one night on a roadtrip and it was perfect for that. We got to cook and go to sauna and relax.

The perfect Finnish cottage experience.

Beautiful countryside, peaceful surroundings. The beach is suitable for children, and it's also nice to take a dip from the dock. The sauna has a good steam. All in all, a successful vacation.

We were stayed in Lauri's place for one night and the stay is absolutely amazing. There are everything in out hand and Lauri is very friendly and communicative. Cleaned farm house. Only one 4 star thing is its not same like the photos as outside. Its looks like there is green field but its not every month. Anyway the stay was very nice 😊

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

Place was excatly as listed, clear instructions, middle of nowhere, peace, nature, good for large groups.

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!!

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
