Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled in the heart of Finland, this charming log panel cottage offers an authentic and tranquil holiday rental experience on the shores of Lake Pielinen, one of the country's most expansive and scenic lakes, covering an impressive 871.2 square kilometres. Located in Savilahti, approximately 68 kilometres north of Joensuu, the property was built in 2000 and provides a warm, characterful retreat for families or groups seeking a genuine Finnish lakeside escape. The cottage accommodates guests across a well-considered layout that includes a kitchen-living room, 2 bedrooms each furnished with a double bed, a sleeping gallery with 2 beds, and an additional bedroom with 2 beds and mattresses, as well as a dedicated dressing room and a washing room. A wood-heated sauna is integrated within the main cottage, complementing the overall sense of traditional Finnish comfort. The property also benefits from its own private shoreline, featuring a shallow sandy bottom that makes it particularly suitable for safe and relaxed access to the lake, along with the exclusive use of a private boat.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of this lakeside cottage are a true highlight of the property, beginning with a terrace that invites you to unwind and take in the surrounding natural scenery. The private shore, just 30 metres from the cottage, provides direct and easy access to the crystal-clear waters of Lake Pielinen, where the shallow sandy bottom ensures a gentle and enjoyable entry into the lake. A private boat is available for your use, opening up the vast expanse of the lake for leisurely excursions, fishing, or simply drifting across the water in complete serenity. Separate from the main cottage, a dedicated lakeside sauna building stands at the water's edge, heated by a traditional wood-burning stove and featuring a fireplace room with a convertible sofa, offering an additional and deeply atmospheric space to relax after a session in the sauna. This separate sauna building is equipped with cold water and electricity, making it a fully functional and independent retreat within the property grounds.
