    Escape to a peaceful cabin surrounded by forest, wildlife, and the quiet beauty of Swedish Lapland.

    • Wood-burning stove with heat-retaining masonry for warmth and a cozy atmosphere
    • Private wood-fired lakeside sauna – perfect for relaxation (2 sauna sessions per week included)
    • Kitchen equipped with a gas stove
    • Solar-powered lighting and USB charging for mobile devices
    • Towels, bed linen, pillows and duvets included
    • Eco-friendly outhouse toilet with urine separation and insulated seat
    • Pets are warmly welcome
    • Better rates for stays of 4 nights or longer

    🌿 PEACE, NATURE & WILDLIFE

    Nature is your closest neighbour here.

    From the cabin’s veranda, you can watch birds, squirrels, hares and sometimes reindeer wandering through the surrounding forest. This is a place to disconnect from everyday stress, slow down, and experience the simplicity of life close to nature.

    🌿 THE EXPERIENCE
    • Secluded location in the forest beside a small lake
    • Private wood-fired sauna by the water
    • Hiking, walking, cycling, and nature trails nearby
    • Experience the wildlife and the eight traditional Sámi seasons
    • Swimming, berry picking, and mushroom foraging during summer and autumn
    • Northern Lights, snow-covered landscapes, and winter activities during winter and spring

    💦 THE SAUNA

    A traditional wood-fired sauna is included twice per week.

    The sauna is heated separately for each session and is not intended to remain heated throughout the day. A typical Nordic sauna experience lasts 1–2 hours.

    A 20-litre water tank is heated by the stove while the sauna warms up. Warm water is used for washing in traditional wash basins, while the steam creates a relaxing and authentic atmosphere.

    The sauna stands directly beside the lake, making it easy to enjoy a refreshing swim before returning to the warmth.

    Tip: Bring some hot water back to the cabin after your sauna session for washing dishes.

Go offline, relax and enjoy

My friend and I had a fantastic time there. Everything was as we had imagined it: quiet, simple and natural. Lena is an incredibly warm and uncomplicated host who was always helpful and impressed us with her knowledge of nature. The isolation and peace on a private lake, with just ourselves and nature, meant that we were able to completely forget about everyday life and focus on what is important in life.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in diesem tollen und so gemütlichen Ferienhaus. Besonders genossen haben wir die Ruhe, den Schnee, Polarlichter, …. einfach ein wunderschönes Fleckchen Erde zum Durchatmen und Abschalten. Ein dickes Dankeschön gilt der Gastgeberin. Wir haben uns vom ersten Moment Willkommen gefüllt… Danke dafür.

Ein ungewöhnlicher Ort und eine herzliche Gastgeberin

Die Hütte liegt zwei Kilometer außerhalb von Natavaara mitten in der Stille, direkt an einem See. Die Hütte hat weder Strom noch Wasseranschluss. Licht und Energie für das Smartphone werden per Batterie und Solarzellen bezogen, die Toilette ist eine Trockentoilette im Schuppen. Wasser wird aus dem See geholt, die Wärme kommt von einem Holzofen. Nach kurzer Eingewöhnungszeit fühlt man sich um ein Jahrhundert zurückversetzt und kommt immer mehr zur Ruhe. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, obwohl wir mit Temperaturen unter -30 Grad in der Nacht zu kämpfen hatten. Hervorzuheben ist noch die freundliche und immer hilfsbereite Art von Lena, der Gastgeberin. Wer zum Beispiel einmal das Eisbaden in Lappland ausprobieren möchte, der wird von ihr zur entsprechenden Stelle geführt.

A Beautiful Place

We stayed there for two weeks in March. The place is perfect to slow down and connect with the nature. It’s surrounded by beautiful nature and has a rustic charme. Our host was very helpful with any matters we had and super friendly. We’ll most certainly return. We’re very glad, we’ve found this place. Thanks for all!

Calmness and Wilderness

Me and my girlfriend were on the Kungsleden and were looking for a quiet place to regain strength. I found the dreamlike cabine by the lake in Nattaavaara quickly on the internet. Once there, we were able to relax and regain our strength with sauna and fishing opportunities. The service of the hosts, as well as the friendliness were just great. They took so good care of us and showed us a old swedish tradition. Everyone who is looking for peace and quiet has come to the right place there. Thanks for the good service. Greetings from Germany
