Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled along the banks of the Utosjoki River in the charming village of Sanginkylä, this cozy 60 m² cabin offers a genuinely peaceful retreat in the heart of Finland. Situated approximately 77 km east of Oulu and around 18 km from the center of Utajärvi municipality, this holiday rental invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature in a setting defined by flowing water, open skies, and unspoiled countryside. Built in 2000 and thoughtfully renovated in 2016, the cabin combines practicality with rustic comfort, making it an ideal base for those seeking a quiet escape without unnecessary frills. The interior is arranged across a well-considered layout featuring a welcoming living room, an open-plan kitchen, and 1 bedroom equipped with 2 beds measuring 80 cm in width each. The living room also accommodates a sofa bed measuring 140 cm, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for additional guests. The bathroom is fitted with an electric sauna, and a separate WC ensures added convenience throughout your stay.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of this riverside cabin are among its most compelling features, offering generous room to unwind and enjoy the natural surroundings at your own pace. A covered terrace extends from the cabin and provides a sheltered spot to sit and relax regardless of the weather, offering protection from rain while keeping you close to the fresh outdoor air. The large yard surrounding the property offers ample space for outdoor activities and leisurely moments in the open, whether you choose to simply take in the scenery or make the most of the riverside setting. A private pier is located approximately 30 meters from the terrace, accessible via a steep riverbank slope that requires careful footing when descending. The riverbed is composed of soft sand and deepens quickly from the shoreline, making attentive supervision of children near the water essential at all times. A rowing boat is available for guest use, allowing you to explore the calm waters of the Utosjoki River at your leisure, and you are kindly asked to pull the boat ashore after each use. An outdoor storage area is also available on the property for your convenience.

Other Information

The cabin is heated electrically, with the bathroom featuring a dedicated electric sauna for your relaxation. Guests are encouraged to exercise caution when accessing the pier due to the steep riverbank slope leading down to the water. The rowing boat provided on the property is available for guest use, and it is important to ensure it is pulled ashore following each outing. Given that the river bottom deepens quickly and is composed of soft sand, children must be carefully supervised near the water at all times.
