Our family owns a number of wilderness cabins which are used, in season, as either refreshment stops or overnight points for clients on winter husky safaris. At other times of the year, one or more may be available for weekly rent or for booking for an overnight stay as part of a kayak journey.
Cabin on Lake Ounasjärvi:
This cabin is owned by Pasi's parents. It sleeps 2 people in comfort but there are bed spaces for four. In the main building, there is one main room which functions as living and sleeping space as well as a changing room for the sauna and the wood-burning sauna itself (which can accommodate up to 8 people). A separate logshed, wilderness toilet and outdoor laavu complete the property. This is a really great place for a small family in the summer because the shallow beach is perfect for small children to swim at and the cabin itself is easily accessible by boat or foot.
There is also a small laavu / outdoor fireplace at this location which was built in the summer of 2014.
Cabin at Kellotijärvi, on the Muoniojoki River:
The main cabin sleeps 4 - 6 people in two rooms. An adjacent building (not shown) has bunkbed accommodation for a further 4 people in two separate rooms and the sauna, (shown below the main cabin), has an additional single bed. Hence, altogether a group of 9 - 11 people can sleep here. This is a perfect place for fishing.
2 cabins on the Palojoki River:
We have two wilderness cabins side by side on a horse-shoe bend of the Palojoki river which are literally in the middle of nowhere. The smaller cabin (shown below during its building phase) is used primarily by guides in winter, and the larger one is for use by overnight safari client groups. The small cabin sleeps 3 people and the larger cabin sleeps 8 people. There is no sauna, as yet, on this property although there is a wilderness toilet and a log shed. These cabins are located approximately mid-way between Leppajärvi and Palojoensu and therefore provide a great overnight location for paddlers.
Cabin on the Tarvantojoki River
We have hopes of putting the beautiful old Nammalakuru cabin and storage building (shown below) back up on our land beside the Tarvantojoki River in the summer of 2015. This riverbend location is literally in the middle of no-where (an off-trail walk of c. 5km in summer located between Kultima and Kuttanen) which requires reasonably good navigation skills or a journey across the river from the Kultimaa road. The cabin sleeps 12 -16 people and is a great location for fishing or berry picking.
