GoodStayed with partner
Personnel pas accueillant, nous remettent nos clés sans explications du fonctionnement de l’igloo (comment mettre l’eau, les lumières, etc). On a dû trouver par nous même. Une fois l’eau mise, inondation sous l’évier, trempant tous nos bagages. Ne vaut absolument pas le prix. Déjeuner ok. Quand on va se renseigner, nous ignore totalement, ne se lève même pas pour voir ce que j’ai besoin. J’ai chercher la douche commune pendant 30 min car on me faisait juste un signe vers où aller mais m’ont pas expliquer que c’était avec le sauna et douche pas indiquer. Très décevant mais hutte mignonne.

We stayed in the igloos and cooked and ate meals both in the igloo and also dinner in the restaurant.
1. Staff were amazing and lovely
2. Food and wine options for dinner and the cosy restaurant was delightful and enjoyable
3. We also cooked and ate in our igloo and the kitchen provided all the kitchen items we needed and were happy for us to drop things off to be cleaned
4. I found the igloos to be surprisingly spacious with lots of spots to store things
5. Small compostable toilet was fine for evening use and we didn’t mind heading up to the main guesthouse for showers and to use bathrooms
6. The bathrooms are a little dated but clean and functional
7. People mentioned in past reviews about the big step to the deck of the igloo. However you don’t need to do the big step as you can walk around a different paths
Overall we had a totally amazing experience and I could have stayed longer

If you’re looking for a family run business, with beautiful lake surroundings, look no further!! The staff is kind and very helpful. The owner went out of his way to get my room ready as I was 3h early for check in! You do need a car as the transportation is very limited (1 bus a day on the weekend 😅). Unfortunately the snow melted by the time I arrived, as it’s early in the season, but I did get to see a stunning Aurora dancing over me just on the front yard: once in a lifetime experience that I’ll never forget 💕. I’ll definitely come back….with a car 😂. Kiitos 💕💕💕

I was expecting the location to be further away from town, but it was right next to the road. There is not much around for food options and tours, you have to go through them. I wish the dog sledding was more than just around the lake. The snowmobiling was awesome. The showers need a big update.

The igloo was comfortable and smart. However, the wifi in our igloo was not working and the staff just said they can’t help it. They could have asked the service person for the igloo to fix it the next day. The traditional sauna was run down and not sealed, cold air kept coming in and there were no instructions to guide guests on how to use it. By the time we came, the fire was almost gone. We had to restart the fire ourselves and by the time the fire is up and warming the room, our time is up. The toilet in the guesthouse was also very basic and run down. One is small where your clothes might get wet. Lastly, it’s not very accessible and there’s only few buses to and fro Ranua per day. Be prepared to walk 15-20min to and fro the accommodation too.

Fantastic accommodation in the igloo. Can be slightly cramped at times but this is expected with the type of room.
Fantastic staff/service with amenities on site.
