I am Jani, your host. I welcome guests to my Apartments in Tahko, Lakeland Finland, and Cottage in Kolari, Lapland. Wanha koulu Tahkovuori is my personal vacation place "a grandma's house" for my family and it has been built with the support of clients since 2006. We keep improving the place each year. Äkäsjoen Piilo - Lapland riverside cabin, is a cottage in Kolari to escape a hectic lifestyle and enjoy Aurora borealis. Tervetuloa! Welcome!

Experience the unique Lapland nature in a handcrafted traditional log cabin, completed in 2023, located on the banks of Äkäsjoki River (2+4 people). The cabin offers a stunning river view, a traditional wood-burning sauna, and a year-round cold plunge pool "Avanto", where the water flows from a natural spring. Please note that the cabin does not have a shower or a separate bathroom; washing takes place in the traditional sauna, where you heat the water while heating the sauna. You will need skills to make a fire to heat up the stove inside the cabin, if it is really cold outside(more than -15°C). Situated 100 kilometers north of the Arctic Circle, right in the heart of nature, and just a 35-minute drive away from the activities in Ylläs. Ideal for those interested in Lapland's nature, Ylläs' services, skiing, as well as hunting and fishing.
