Inarin Aava cottage
(26 m² + loft 6 m² / 4 beds)
Available for rent between April and September. Rental possible outside this period by special agreement.
A cozy and traditionally built log cabin (like a wilderness cottage) situated on a beautiful, untouched lakeside plot by Lake Inari! The lake view stretches 35–40 kilometers and the fell view up to 100 kilometers. Own private shoreline about 50 meters. No visible neighbors and endless opportunities for hiking, cycling, and water activities all around. The cabin is easily accessible by car via a private road.
The cabin consists of two sections: a living area and a sauna, each with its own entrance from the terrace. The living area features a mini kitchen, a heat-retaining fireplace, a dining table (for four), and a double bed (120 cm). Part of the living area has high ceilings, and above is a 6 m² loft with two beds (80+80 cm). All windows have blinds.
The sauna section includes a changing room and a traditional wood-heated sauna with a built-in water tank for heating water. The sauna can fit four people using an additional bench. The changing room has space for clothes storage. On the covered terrace, there is a charcoal grill and seating area. There is also a summer kitchen with an open fireplace. Firewood storage and equipment storage available. Composting toilet in an outdoor outhouse. Open firepit by the shore.
The cabin has no electricity except for solar power, which can be used to charge USB-compatible devices like phones and lamps. For greater electricity needs, a 4-stroke generator is available. Lighting is powered by batteries, solar cells, or rechargeable units. Heating is provided by a fireplace and a gas heater.
Water for washing comes directly from the lake. After boiling, lake water can also be used for cooking. Drinking water can be collected, for example, from Kaamanen Kievari. We recommend to take some water with you when arriving. Water can be heated in the sauna and in the wood-heated outdoor kettle (80 liters). We kindly ask you to do the dishes on a counter next to the summer kitchen.
The kitchen has a gas stove (two burners) and an 80-liter gas refrigerator. Basic cookware and dining ware for at least six people are provided. The rental includes duvets and pillows for four. Bed linen and towels are not included and it is not possible to order them in advance. Gas and firewood are also included in the rent.
Available for guest use: fishing gear for summer and winter, various recreational equipment, a fish smoker, board games, a canoe, a rowboat, life jackets and two mountain bikes (starting from the season 2026). Pets are allowed for free, but must be agreed upon in advance. There is no cleaning service so the cottage should be cleaned by yourself.
Distance to Lake Inari is approx. 30 meters. The beach is shallow and gently deepening. Excellent fishing spots just a few hundred meters from shore. A snowmobile trail passes about 500 meters away. The nearest boat dock is located in Käyräniemi (5 km). Via the lake it is about 1,5 km to Käyräniemi.
