Really nice cottages. The cottage was well stocked, with kettle, microwave and things for making a quick meal. Bedding was nice and warm, and it's walking distance to the pool :)

The stay at the cottages was extremely comfortable, with a stream running by and moutains you can relax at this place. They had good wifi connection and when reached out for help, the person on-line was helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Cozy cabins in a great area…but. Be warned that there is mold in the bathrooms and BED BUGS. Spent the whole next day after our stay washing and sanitizing all our clothes and luggage. Hosts did not seem concerned and advised it was a non issue. Seeing the Aurora Borealis was the only consolation.

Very cute stay. The room was nice and private with everything we needed. The curtains did not really do much to prevent the midnight sun from coming directly into the sleeping area but we made do by hanging some extra coats, towels and sheets to block the direct sun.

Pleasant cabin.

Nice cabin in a fairly secluded location. It was clean, well-kept and nicely equipped. Four sharing was acceptable, but a little tight on space although the beds were very comfortable.
