Sehr schönes Haus auf einer Insel. Entsprach alles der Beschreibung (z.B. WLAN, Küchengeräte usw.)Die Betten waren sehr bequem. Und die Ruhe auf der Insel hat uns gut getan. Die Sauna haben wir sehr oft genossen. Die Vermieterin sprach Deutsch und war immer zu erreichen. Würden wir jederzeit wieder machen.

Beautiful loneliness

Wir haben zwei wunderbare Wochen auf der Insel verbracht und die Einsamkeit genossen. Der Kontakt mit dem Vermieter war super, Frau Korhonen spricht fließend deutsch. Haus und Nebengebäude waren wunderschön und in tadellosem Zustand und bestens ausgestattet mit allem was man so braucht. Der See ist für Angler gut geeignet, haben dies reichlich nutzen können. Alles in allem definitiv weiter zu empfehlen.

Ruhiges Ferienhaus mitten im See

Das gemütliche Haus liegt sehr ruhig auf einer Insel ohne Nachbarn. Die Insel ist ca. 1 km vom Ufer und dem Parkplatz entfernt, der Weg kann mit einem Boot mit Außenborder zurückgelegt werden. Besonders bei gutem Wetter ist der Blick auf den See und die Weite äußerst idyllisch; bei schlechtem Wetter ist die Natur ziemlich rau. Bei Kälte muss mit Holz geheizt werden. Sehr angenehm ist die eigene Sauna, in der auch geduscht werden kann.
