Reviews

Thank you so much, Miika, We had a wonderful stay with you. You live in a truly beautiful spot—right on the lake, surrounded by forests. Thank you for the great tips and the private tour of the reindeer farm. The snowmobile ride will remain unforgettable for my family. Even at -30 degrees. Seeing the Northern Lights from your cabin on the Nature Trail and grilling by the campfire was also very beautiful and unforgettable. We wish you all the best; maybe we’ll come back again in the summer.

We had a wonderful time at Miika’s cabin. It was really cozy and comfortable, and it had everything we needed for our vacation. The cabin is in a stunning location with breathtaking views in every direction. Snowmobiling around the lake and watching the Northern Lights from the hot tub are memories that will stay with us forever. Miika was an amazing host—so helpful, hospitable, and friendly that we had absolutely no complaints and would stay there again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience—this was by far the best Airbnb stay we’ve ever had!

I enjoyed our stay here. Our children are 11 and 12 years old, and they had a great time riding a snowmobile for the first time and pulling each other on the sled.

I also liked the location, which was peaceful and far from the Christmas crowds in Rovaniemi. I’m from Finland, and I chose this place for my Australian family so they could experience the snow and cold of Lapland. It didn’t disappoint. Thank you, Miika, for the accommodation.

Airbnb: Lysti Cottage by the lake and magical countryside

We had a nice skiing holiday in Lysti-Kämä. The cottage is small, but comfortable and has everything you need. The nearby nature trail with its lean-to was a nice route for snowshoeing. The sauna was great! It's a nice car ride to Rovaniemi, e.g. Santa Park and other attractions in the city, if you're interested. Miika is a very nice and helpful host!
