This ruralhut is a beautiful little log cabin in the middle of the Simojoki salmon river in southern Finnish Lapland, built in 2008. Comfortably equipped with electric sauna, shower, wood stove, electric heating, running water, kitchen sink, refrigerator, TV, and outside toilet. Suitable for up to four people. You can use a canoe or rowing boat. In the summer you can use the wood-fired sauna on the shore. A fishing permit is included for one person, as well as the use of nettings (katiska). The fishing season of salmon runs from May 15th to September 15th. The salmon population is rapidly recovering, from 500 (2012) up to about 3800 (2015) to the river-rising adult salmon. In addition you will find sea trout, flag salmon, pike, bass and big maraine (siika). In addition to fishing, the log cabin is also very suitable as a drop-out for berries and mushroom lovers. Nearby you will find large marshland areas and the famous berry market in Ranua.
Nature and surroundings
Situated in a wooded parkland, near the Simojoki salmon river, 300 meters from the landlord's traditional farmhouse. This middle of the river is characterized by a varied landscape of coniferous forest and some meadows, with rapids (koski) and wider slower flowing sections. This area is sparsely populated and was famous for its salmon, which is now restoring. In the 50s and 60s the river was used for wood transport. In this area, many reindeer and moose live. Since the last years, also deer and raccoon dogs (supikoira) have lived here. The bird population consists of capercailye, grouse, snow grouse and partridge. A bear is 15 kilometers away. You will also find solitary wolves, lynxes and polygons here, such as throughout Lapland. The Arctic Zoo / Ranua Zoo is 30 kilometers away.

We felt totally at home. It was quaint and cozy and very comfortable, as there was electricity.
Wir haben uns total wohl gefühlt. Es war urig und gemütlich und sehr komfortabel, da Strom vorhanden war.
The location on the river is wonderful. You can fish or just go boating. Not very far, however, as the rapids limit the trip.
Wunderbar ist die Lage am Fluss. Man kann angeln oder nur Boot fahren. Allerdings nicht sehr weit, da Stromschnellen die Fahrt begrenzen.

A very nice cozy cottage! For 3 adults it is a bit on the cramped side though. The outside toilet, especially in winter, is a separate experience!
Een heel leuk knus huisje! Voor 3 volwassenen is het wel wat aan de krappe kant. De buitentoilet is, zeker in de winter, een aparte ervaring!
Beautiful surroundings! Wonderfully peaceful!
Prachtige omgeving! Heerlijk rustig!

Very much enjoyed the peace and beautiful nature. Close to the river where you can swim and fish from the decking and also from a rowing boat. In the log cabin everything you need is available. In early summer there are many mosquitoes outside; inside there are no problems thanks to the screens! And the outdoor toilet takes some getting used to. Zee friendly owner who has many tips about the area.
Heel erg genoten van de rust en prachtige natuur. Vlakbij de rivier waar je kunt zwemmen en vissen vanaf de vlonder en ook vanaf een roeiboot. In de blokhut is alles wat je nodig hebt voorhanden. In de vroege zomer zijn er wel veel muggen buiten; binnen hiervan geen last dankzij de horren! En de buiten-wc is even wennen. Zee vriendelijke eigenaar die veel tips heeft over de omgeving.
Away from all the hustle and bustle, in the middle of nature. Tranquility and beautiful surroundings.
Weg van alle drukte, midden in de natuur. Rust en prachtige omgeving.
