Location

Access to medical supplies. We had an emergency but the required medicines were not available

Good location to visit frozen lake by walking.

hot water in bathroom sometime shortage.

Dogs were very welcome, nice place and everything what you need just on site.

Super location in front of the lake .Super clean and had kitchen equipment .Really calm and beautiful place highly recommended .

There was no blanket and pillowcase so it had to be rented

Last year the kitchen and bathroom was slightly outdated, so we were very delighted, that the cabin has undergone some renovations. The cabin's next neighbors are the other 15 (?) cabins on the same property and the cruise boat terminal in close proximity. The location of the cabin is definitely the biggest plus of the accommodation: the cruise boat right in front of your doorstep and the starting point of your climb up to Saanatunturi about 100 m further. Also a nice extra is the little hut on the shoreline, so you can have a BBQ with excellent views to Malla nature reserve and Kilpisjärvi lake. Beware! Bring your own sheets and towels - renting them is currently 12e/person :)

Mattresses were very outdated and definitely would need renewing!

Breathtaking location. Cabin had everything I needed and it was as described. Staff was super friendly.

I really liked the cottages at Kilpisjärven Retkeilykeskus. I was in a cabin right next to the lake and the cabin had everything I needed. Accept maybe WiFi access but you could get WiFi at the main building. Also the sauna next to the main building was great. There is a very good restaurant there, where you can also buy sandwiches for your hikes if you want. And a lovely souvenir shop. Many nice hiking trails starting almost directly at the location. In early June one should however bear in mind that there can still be snow on some parts of the trails - or otherwise lots of water. Good waterproof shoes are helpful. Oh and the best thing are of course the reindeers which run freely around the cabins and can be watched through the window or from the terrace. :)

When you arrive, like I did, by bus and without your own car, you should note that the next grocery store is 5 km away and there is no sidewalk on the road. It probably is best to bring all groceries on the first day.

The location,staff,food. The cabin was comfortable and warm. Peaceful,great views. Wish we could have stayed longer for some hiking/skiing.
