Clean, nice room, enough space. There is a gas station in front of the camping.

A little bit of kitchen equipment and sink can be also in the room.

Breakfast was very nice, the one person cabin small but warm and cosy. Bathroom/shower building was also very clean and nicely warmed. Owners are very friendly and nice to chat with!

Everything was clean and functional. Free wi-fi. Nice place. Great staff! They were happy to answer all my questions, helped me get a taxi and were pretty quick to respond to e-mails.

No change of air in the cabin. Extra fees for many things. Hard to reach and hard to get to the airport from there.

very nice staff, shower room and toilet were so spacious and clean even though its shared! very good breakfast and dinner, nice view next to the river.

nope. but would be even better if bed linen is prepared, its just I dont like to change the bed linen by myself, not a big deal ;)

Accomodation Is clean, equipment of room ( electric kettle, microwave) and shared kitchen ( stove, pots, dishes) was fine. Staff was very helpful.

Bunk beds are really uncomfortable in upper deck. It's probably suitable for children or small people.

The cabin was so cozy and very warm inside despite winter temperature outside. Breakfast was excellent, I had a lot of fresh vegetables which I did not expect in Lapland during this time of the year.

Basically nothing. The facilities were almost spotless. However, the bathrooms needed to be shared with other guests, they might not be as clean as having private ones which I would not complain.

Wonderful cabin! Very nicely done with love to details - direct sight to the forest, terrasse - it was already my second stay and I can really recommend it. The owners are very friendly and helpful people !

Absolutely perfect for nature lovers. There are various forest trails next to the camping. The cabins are a bit small with only a very small seat, table and fridge. Bed is comfortable if you're not too tall. But its good for a minimalist "close to the nature" experience. In the kitchen and shower building next to the cabin is everything you need to make dinner etc. The reception / restaurant is open from 8u tot 22u and the staff is always friendly to answer your questions. You can have dinner in the restaurant for a good price. the pork steak with mushroom sauce and french fries are good! Tip: if you want to see the northern light better walk away from the main rood because of the light polution. there is a trail next to the campside going a bit up hill. behind the hill is a smaller trail that leads to the big forest in about 20 minutes walking and there it will be dark enough to see the Aurora Borealis if you're lucky :) .

the bed is a bit on the small size and will be probably too small if your longer then 1.83 meters.

good simple facilities and location for transport to/from airport and other destinations

The property is great for a winter wonderland holiday - a nice location close to Ivalo airport, but still in the middle of nature and close to Ivalo River, which is great for aurora hunting. The cabins are very cute and cozy. There is a nice hike that they informed us about that led us to a beautiful viewing point, and they lend you sleds during your stay which was fun. Breakfast is tasty, and the cabins have a water boiler, mini fridge and microwave (on top of a shared kitchen), which makes it easy to make your own meals if you wish to.

There could have been clearer instructions regarding what the check-out procedures are, for instance on the info-sheet given at check-in. Also more communication in terms of closing times of the kitchen, as during the weekends it closed earlier, but we weren't informed of it.

Me and my brother stayed a week at Ivalo River Camping, and I have to say everything was amazing. The whole staff was so welcoming and made us feel like home. Everyone was so nice and kind, it made it difficult to us to say good bye. Minna and Matti are two of the nicest people I have ever met, always there for everything we needed, always with a smile on their faces. The food was incredible, so tasty, especially the Salmon soup and blueberry pie. The smoothness and creamy of Minna’s Salmon soup was an experience worth of trying. This was our first time in Finland, and I dare to say it won’t be the last time thanks to the beautiful experience of staying at this camping. We came chasing Northern Lights (which we got the luck to see on our second night in the camping), but the magic of the trip wouldn’t be complete without the hospitality of the Ivalo River Camping staff. For sure this will be a yearly trip. We can’t wait to come back next year to see our friends once again.

Having to say goodbye to them.

The accommodation was cosy for a solo traveller.

The property itself was excellent however, local places to eat are a good walk away which was a shame when you arrive later in the day

lovely friendly owners who made me feel at home 😍

it’s a bit far from ivalo city centre

The cottage is really nice. Toilets and kitchen are in services building but not far away.

It might be a private parking sign on the hill above warning guests not to park their cars up there

People here are really helpful, they taught us how to use sledge and the best place to see northern lights. Besides, it is a tranquil place to relax. They can book some activities for you, which can make you have a memorable trip!

The location was wonderful - it felt like I was secluded and out in nature, but in reality I was a short bike ride away from everything I needed (you can borrow bicycles from the reception when there isn't snow, and snowmobiles when there is). Alternatively, I could have walked everywhere but it would have taken a bit longer (although people do this, and I was able to walk to the airport at the end of my stay). The property is easily accessible by bus. It has its own special stop on the route from Rovaniemi to Ivalo. The staff were wonderful - friendly, helpful, warm. As a solo traveler staying in a hut in the middle of somewhat remote northern Finland, I felt very safe and secure. The accommodations provide you everything you need - a warm, comfortable place to sleep, hot showers, kitchen if needed, WiFi. You can purchase food at reception or go into town. You can drink the tap water. There is hiking, walking, nature scenes to be had in the immediate vicinity. Simply walking or biking alongside the river is such a treat. You are able to see the northern lights outside your cabin when the sky is clear and dark, no need to chase them in a car. I originally wanted to stay in a glass igloo, but they are so expensive. Here, I could look out my window and see how the sky looked, and then take a few steps outside if I wanted to see better, and that provided me with some beautiful scenes. When it's quiet, you can hear huskies barking in the distance, but it's not too loud that you are kept awake. Overall, the ambience is lovely and exactly what I came here for. Thank you for such a pleasant stay!

Nothing! I was very content, honestly.

There where wild raindeers walking arround.
