Villa Saunatonttu

Aamu Saunatontussa alkaa järven pinnalta nousevaan usvaan. Saatat kuulla läheisen kosken kuohuntaa. Päivän voit viettää veneellä kalastaen, kanootilla lähialuetta tutkien tai laiturilla auringosta nauttien. Kesällä Lapin taika näyttäytyy yöttömissä öissä. Aurinko viipyy horisontissa läpi yön ja järven pinta hehkuu kultaisena. Syksyn saapuessa pimeät illat tuovat mukanaan mahdollisuuden ihailla revontulia suoraan rannasta. Rantasaunan pehmeät löylyt ja virkistävä uinti kruunaa päivän. 🌲🔥🌅✨

Cheerful lakeside home

The magic of Lapland by the lake! Yet all the services of Kemijärvi town center are close by (2.5 km). You might not even need a car, as buses also reach the property! You won’t find IKEA or “sad beige” decor here, but rather charming vintage character and playful details. Within an hour’s reach, you can visit the ski resorts of Pyhä and Suomu, or the attractions of Rovaniemi, such as Santa Claus Village. Yet after a day in the crowds, you’ll love returning to your peaceful lakeside retreat.

There is no jacuzzi/hot tub or sauna available in this accommodation I am afraid.
