The Korvala cabins are very comfortable and warm, with lovely design. The Family running the place offers also husky tours, sauna and very kind attention to what we needed. We loved souna and lake bath experience. There is an exellent traditional restaurant there too, magical place. The forest is accesible, with clear trails, although it is good to have gps with you. We used the skating equipment, included in the cabin price. I think they also turnedon the Northen Lights fior us the other night ;)
Maybe a sand clock inside souna (which was amazing anyway) would be helpful.

Le site est très joli avec les beaux chalets rouges . On a à notre disposition : luges, raquettes, ski de fond .
On a adoré les chiens de traîneaux au coucher du soleil ( les explications sont en anglais)
On a pu voir les aurores boréales ( il faut regarder vers le nord , au dessus des chalets)
Vous pouvez visiter en famille la ferme kopara à luosto ( 30 euros pour 2 adultes et 2 enfants)
Très belle balade au vikaköngäs ( aller jusqu'au mirador)
Il n'y a que le minimum nécessaire en cuisine

A family of four we are just home from a 3 night stay at Korvala (should have stayed for longer).
The most amazing experience from start to finish. Jaana & Seppo (owners) so helpful and accommodating. The log cabins are clean and comfortable. The setting is picture postcard perfect. Photos will not do it justice.
The husky ride is incredible and the dogs are all loved and cared for so well.
The sledging and super fast slide in the snow was a favourite for my kids (5&7).
The sauna and dip in the ice cold water is a great experience you can enjoy here also.
45 min drive from Rovaniemi airport, if you are looking for an authentic experience away from the commercial side of Lapland this is your place.
We were also lucky to see the Northern lights on our final night in Korvala.
I am already planning a return trip for 2025!

El sitio es maravilloso. Las cabañas son cómodas y acogedoras y están ubicadas junto a un lago en un entorno tranquilo en el que disfrutar del paisaje nevado. Puedes utilizar la barbacoa, los trineos y los esquís sin coste. Los dueños son muy amables. Muy buena experiencia.
Nos gustó todo. Por dar alguna sugerencia, estaría bien un poco más de menaje en la cocina, sobre todo un tostador.

everything was alright, really hot inside, good radiators, fresh drinking water, location was amazing, we saw a true spectacle of the auroras, the cabin was incredible small and it was for 4, we were 2 but we found it very small and inconvenient as we were a couple but the beds were bunk beds, it doesn’t necessarily say this when you book so be careful.
very small cabin

There were a lot of free activities to do including cross country skiing with equipments provided. Great husky tours. Easygoing owners.
Not sure why linens are not provided in most of the accomodation in Finland, but this was also the same case. Smaller accommodation than expected.

We visited for the long Easter weekend with our parents, a teenager, and two young children (under 4). All of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The owners were very friendly and the surroundings were beautiful.
Even though our travel schedule unfortunately didn't allow us to book a husky sledding tour, we were still able to explore and enjoy the expansive grounds with material that was provided free of charge: skis (also for young children), sleds (including a sled specifically for a very young child with a strap to hold them in place), a map with several trails for skiing and hiking...
There were also ice skates, snow shoes, a covered grilling place next to the lake, and for a normal charge there is a sauna with a swimming hole.
There is a sledding hill and a playground (which was still completely covered in snow and ice but this didn't stop the children from exploring).
It's not close to shops or any other business/activity to visit, but that's the trade-off you make for being closer to nature and away from the city. We saw an (arctic?) hare and squirrels from the cabin, some reindeer in the forest, lots of different animal tracks, and of course we had a look at the huskies in the kennel.
If you have a car, there are other excursions/shops within doable driving distance. We did not but easily reached Korvala by public transport (bus stop right in front of the property) with the kind owners even being able to accommodate an arrival slightly earlier than check-in time. We did not have a lot of noise from the road but this might have been thanks to the snow banks.
Contact with the owners before, during and after our stay was easy and fast. Information was proactively provided.
We had forgotten to bring one or two items and the owner quickly and kindly helped us out.
We had the large cabin. Some of the beds were in the living area, one bedroom was separate.
For some reason the cons appear to posted first. If this is the case, please read the pros because we recommend Korvala!
The cooking plates were a bit inconveniently placed combined with the cooker hood which made the back plate harder to check on and reach.
(The kitchen as a whole was advertised as being relatively basic so this was not a surprise. We brought our own potato knives and were glad to have done so. There were a bigger knife and peeler provided, you could get by.)
Disclaimer: we found the following issue to be minor and did not report it to or discuss it with the owner.
The fireplace was impressive but some of the stones it was made of were loose (not dangerous for an adult but could be a hazard for small children). However, I seem to remember reading somewhere that there will be renovations very soon so this issue might be resolved soon.

Amazing location with cottages near the shore of the lake. Surrounded by loads of different forest walkways that are even navigable in the snow. Dozens of beautiful huskies in the training school. Loads of free wood if you want to light your own fire in your cabin. Skis, snow shoes, sleds, etc. free to use. Also, for the English speakers, you'll find English language channels on the tv. All in all, very satisfactory. Note, while the nearest supermarkets are about 50km away, if you run out of beer, and have a car, and are sober, you can get beer in the Chinese restaurant and (limited) shop 10 km up north.
Could do with an oven and a toaster. Two seater couch not very comfortable and only two seater so if you have more than two in the cabin, some people will have to sit on kitchen chairs.

I had the pleasure of staying at Koravala Log Cabins and I must say it was a fantastic experience. The surroundings were simply breathtaking, with stunning views of the mountains and forests that made me feel completely at one with nature.
The log cabin itself was cozy and comfortable, with all the amenities needed to make my stay enjoyable. The cabin was well-maintained, clean and tidy, and the wood-burning stove provided a warm and inviting atmosphere on colder evenings.
One of the highlights of my stay was the opportunity to explore the local area. The hiking trails around the cabin provided a great opportunity to get some exercise and soak up the beautiful scenery, and the nearby lake was perfect for cross-country skiing , snow shoeing and very nice place for ice bath!
Overall, I would highly recommend Koravala Log Cabins to anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing retreat in the heart of nature. The beautiful surroundings and cozy cabin made for an unforgettable stay that I hope to repeat in the future.
Lockers on cabin sometimes doesn't work properly, but I believe administrators already solve this :)

very cozy, small but excellent for our two nights stay and husky tour. The hosts Jaana and Seppo are very hospitable and the girls who take good care of the husky’s are friendly and willing to explain all about the dogs.

Absolutely beautiful location, so magical. Also, so many free activities: Skis, snow shoes, ice skates, ice fishing, open fire with fire wood.
It is a bit of a journey from Rovaniemi if travelling in and out for activities (45 mins drive) but worth it for the beautiful, peaceful location.

The scenery is fantastic, the people that work there are amazing, they treat you with care and you can see they love their job, especially the huskies.
There weren't a lot of buses when I went, so I had to organize the trips. There aren't any supermarkets that you can reach by walking, maybe they could sell basic stuff for the guests.
I feel that if you have a car, it will improve the experience a lot.

The surrounding nature, the silence. It was great to be able to do activities outside all day long (winter equipment for free). Despite the cold weather, the cabin was always warm.
Just to let other travellers know, there's no much space to place your belongings (no drawers), just some hangers at the entrance.
9.6 / 10.0
It really is the whole package! You have ski equipment and trails, so you can spend the whole day in the forrest. The hotel only have a couple of cabins, so you will be practically alone. We also saw the northern lights from the hotel almost every night. I highly recommend the husky tour from the hotel as well. Just be sure you bring food with you as the closest store is like an hour away and there are no restaurants at walking distance either.
The water from the shower wasn’t super hot and it’s a bit difficult to get food if you don’t have a car

Cabins have a fireplace and stoking it and contemplating on fire is an additional amusement for those who have not used to a home fireplace)
Besides that hosts, location, nature around was wonderful!
The sauna could be upgraded to a more leisure-kind place

The cabin size was perfect and the location is incredible. Great hosts who helped us with any issues. The firewood hut for the fireplace was the perfect touch!
Nothing, it couldn’t be better. It is a long drive from Rovaniemi, but great to get out of the town to the true wilderness of Lapland.
