A cosy log cabin with a sauna

Traditionally built Finnish log cabin with unique atmosphere. Old furniture, candles, a fire place, and propably the best sauna in town will make your stay memorable. The cabin offers peace and quiet - and still you are only 40minutes from the city. Traditional design and materials create a very cosy feeling. A wood heated sauna and a fire place add to the relaxing experience. The building has one (living)room with a fire place, a small entrance hall, a toilet and a sauna room with a shower. The living room has a twin bed and a wooden sofa. The sofa has 10cm side boards so it is good for children. It is 95 cm wide so even two small children can sleep there, but it is only 175 cm long so it is not very comfortable for (a tall) adult. There is a fridge, a water kettle, and complimentary tea bags/ instant coffee. Please note that there is no kitchen inside, but it is possible to cook things in the "outside kitchen", a roof-covered barbecue area where you have a coal grill, a frying pan and a smoker. You can also roast smaller things (vegetables, sausages, marshmallows etc.) in a fire place. The house is surrounded by a garden. There is a hammock for relaxing. You will have access to barbecue (coal or wood) and an outside dining area. For children there is a play house, some toys and and outside games (petanque, croquette etc.) Our family (two adults and three children) is very active and busy with lots of hobbies and we are in and out of the house most of the time. We live in the main house next to the log house. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions or concerns. We enjoy the company of our guests, but we also respect your privacy. Wir sprechen auch ein bißchen Deutsch - Hablamos un poco español tambien. Rekola is a very nice neighborhood with cute old houses. It is nice to jog or walk around. There is a cross country running track (for skiers in the winter), and children's play ground less than 1 km away. Kuusijärvi Lake and recreational area (for swimming, hiking, cross country skiing) is about 3 km away. A local pub and a garden store are 500m away; a small grocery store about 750m away and a big super market, some clothing stores and a liquour store 1 km away. Convenient location - only 15 minutes to/from the airport, the taxi fare about 30 euros. The Rekola train station is 1,2 km away; the K- and N-trains stop there every 10-20 minutes. A train ride to the Helsinki city centre takes 26 minutes. Buses 722 and 739 also stop nearby. A regional one way ticket is 5 euros, kids half price. A 24 hour pass costs 12 euros. Free parking for your car in our front yard. The wood in the entrance hall is included in the price of the cabin. Additional firewood costs 10 euros/sack. Should you need more wood, please contact us. The price of the cabin includes one set of sheets and towels. If you want a change of clean sheets or towels during your stay, it is possible with an extra cost. A tip for a company with more than 3 or e.g. two families travelling together: our neighbours are also Airbnb-hosts and they are renting their cabin ("Urban cottage - enjoy real sauna" / "Oma kaupunkimökki puusaunalla"). Our yards are connected, our barbeque-area is in the middle and it's easy to move back and forth from one place to another. So each family can have their own cabin and share the garden!
