We booked our stay here from the US before starting our three month tour of Scandinavia. The information on this place was a bit limited so we were cautiously optimistic and the place didn't disappoint. A car is really necessary at this location because it is really remote from everything. When arriving the reception is in the home of the proprietors but the cabins are located away from the homestead in private secluded locations out in the middle of the wilderness along the lake. The cabin had everything we needed for cooking and the store in town had plenty of variety for groceries. We brought our own bedding from our Finnish friends home but they have bedding and linen available to rent if needed. The price of the cabin is very reasonable. We were there the end of May and the lake was still mostly frozen although not solid enough to walk on. The sauna, shower, and bathroom is very nice but is accessed from the porch, not from within the cabin. The proprietors speak sufficient English. The only suggestion I would have is to provide hair dryers in the cabin. Most travelers aren't able to travel with hair dryers anymore given the size and weight restrictions imposed by airlines.

We did not use the cottage services - but we were enjoying Tuomo's unbelievable fishing skills and knowledge. Tuomo shared without hesitation all the information he had and told amazing stories about history and surrounding nature. Really enjoyable moments (and lots of fish) he provided for us.
Next year we are going to test the fish buffet - I'm confident that it will be pure gourmet with fresh and clean ingredients and the original atmosphere. And we want to see the bears too!!!
If you don't want to be so super touristic and do something authentic, what still gives you nice memories, choose Tuomo! We loved it!

We spent a night inside the red house in June. The location was quiet and beautiful: the house was in front of the lake, sorrounded by trees. We could see the lake even through a big window of our room. There were a fireplace and a sauna too. Everything was very relaxing and romantic. Furnishings was nice and clean. Owners, husband and wife, were absolutely kind: they showed us a place where usually reindeers are. So i took some nice photos of reindeers! Ollilan Lomamajat is a perfect place for a Finnish adventure!
