For a city dweller, living in a cabin in the woods, by a lake, is a dream come true. But there's no need to give up on any creature comforts, because this cabin has modern fittings and design.

The view out of the panoramic window is great. You are looking north in the direction of the frozen lake. We were able to see northern lights on three out of six days through this window.

WELCOME TO LAPLAND
Villa Sivakka is family-owned and run. Our grandparents first built a cabin at Äkäsjärvi in the 1970s, and we have been visiting here ever since. Villa Sivakka is consitently the highest rated Airbnb in Finland. We also know the area inside out, so feel free to ask us anything.
