I am a dog person, so I did like to be surrounded by that many dogs, it was fascinating to hear them haul. The cabin was ok, it had a sleeping bag and a sleeping bag liner. The kitchen had all you needed to make your own breakfast.
The shower just had cold water and if you needed to wash the dishes in the kitchen you needed to walk outside to wash them with a hose. But for the price I pay it is ok. But I did not go on the winter, that could be a different story.
Still good for a one night sleep

It is certainly not a place for people who do not like dogs. I was surprised at first, but the animal environment was pleasant. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Amenities in the small house ( towels and bedding) very helpful. The cottage clean and well maintained. We had no problem with the wc outside, the kitchen and the showers you had to walk to. We were satisfied with our short stay there. Remember to have mosquito repellent in the summer :)
The shower could be cleaner.

Remote location. Huskies.
Very smelly 'sentry box' toilet. Untidy site. Basic facilities. Access road in summer very tough.

A nice accommodation for dog lovers! Our kids liked the place with a lot of husky puppies very much! :) The size of the cabin was adequate and the beds were quite good. A friendly hostess, and it was excellent that the breakfast was included in the price.
A freezer and coffee maker would be nice in the cabins, and an inside toilet in the shower facility as well. The accommodation is good for dog lovers who don’t mind occasional barking :)

Unique place in the woods (note that you probably need Wellington boots and a lot mosquito repellent if you go walking. A little rough around the edges but very unique and great value for money.
Some minor facilities were missing: bedside lamps, kitchen basin. A sign saying JVT camping could be placed on the entrance road. The address is wrong on booking.com. It should be Timmervägen 8.

Puppies
Showers was kinda disgusting. No toilets with running water - only outdoor. No running water for washing dishes after breakfast. Only sleeping bags. Wondered is they ever get washed. Things you should expect while booking but ain't nice: Whole place smells dogs pee/poop. Dogs barking at night and early morning. Didn't like see dogs in such a small cages.

The cabin was okay (as it is in the picture). You should sleep in the sleeping bag (it is also known according to pics). The place is located in a huskie shelter inside the forest so you will have the chance to meet many huskies. There was a dining area but we did not have an opinion as we did not visit it. The staff was very friendly and was willing to add an extra bed except the beds of the cabin.
The bathroom is a wooden room outside of the cabin, without any proper toilet but with a barrel that you can use it as a toilet. The place was smelling very bad. The showers are located in 50 meters distance in another room but the hygiene was better there. If you are okay with these hygiene conditions is totally fine but my friends and I could not stay there and checked out the same day.

The location was lovely
The breakfast tipi was not heated and therefore very cold (in November).

Unusual and truly authentic place immersing us in the life of the locals
Poorly detailed on the ad does not correspond to what is sold.

Many husky dog barking all the time, can not sleep. Change other place for living. 74 euros only saw some husky. The owner should be mention the sleeping room in the husky park.

The campsite is located next to a dog aviary. Dogs are used in winter to pull sledges. There was a very unusual feeling that all the dogs were starting to howl like wolves at night. I highly recommend experiencing that feeling. The shower room is spacious and warm. I liked the use of sleeping bags instead of bedding. Real tourism
WC in a rustic style. Awkward and dark kitchen

Nice Location in the Forrests near Kiruna. They Offer Dog Sled Tours so you are on a Station with 150Dogs - Very interesting. The Cabin had all we need + an extra nice kitchen cabin.

The admin was really friendly and helpful...
The staff is really friendly and the dogs hawling during the night it was scary at the same time it makes me happy to experience it.
The room was cozy and the shower was warm and accesible for our house van like charging and putting water...
The place is really Nature friendly with a lot of husky and we really enjoyed the experience...
The kitchen is a bit dark but its ok
The table is a bit small when you want to play board games.
If you are sensitive for Noice then this place is not for you... It's not we don't like it just a information...
It would be nice to have place where we can wash dishes...

Staff was very friendly, they helped out with transportation, the cabin was very clean, they provide correct service, The dogs are amazing, it was a very good experience
It is a little remote if you do not have any transportation yourself, however they helped me out on that issue.

The location to the city was perfect if you love the country.
I can just say this.. we were not excited to return to our cabin after a long day of hiking. We lived literally 8 meters from cages and cages of hundreds of dogs. Cute but a bit too much for our taste. They owld and bark VERY often so we had difficultys sleeping. And the smell wasn’t very pleasing. Very bad ventilation in the cabins. The restroom was a outhouse in the woods, charmig for some people i guess..
The showers were full of dog hair so we showerd by the river instead.
They told in the ad that it was a ”dog kennel”, but it was more like a dog camp. Literally hundreds of dogs. Not what we expected.

We liked all of it! The dogs (who were actually rather quite at night time and only barked when seeing other dogs coming back from sled or people arriving), the cabin and all the furniture and food that was offered, the large shower, the very welcoming and nice staff and most of all the location! Many pine trees covered in snow just in front of the kennels, ice hotel down the walking path - about 1 hour away - and a nice spot up/behind the cabins where we were able to witness the brightest northern lights of the week! If you are a dog, wilderness, nature lover you will absolutely enjoy what this place has to offer.

Your cabin is surrounded by Haskins in cages. Definitely you don’t will have a quiet time.
The breakfast is just a fake ...I founded an instant glass of coffee and some jam...nothing more...
