The cottage stay at Kilpikonna was our first experience at a Finnish cottage, it was absolutely idyllic! To be honest, for the money we considered staying at a 4-star hotel with buffet instead, but were glad we tried the cottage. The location was genius, nestled within a secluded forest right next to the lake. Such privacy and silence surrounded by nature is such luxury!
We barbecued, fished, steamed our bodies in the sauna, swam and boated in the lake, and overall just enjoyed being surrounded by natural beauty. The owner was very hospitable and made check-in a breeze with a simple code unlock. After arrival, he showed off all the eco-friendly features of the cottage, and gave plenty of local tips.
