The Ankkuri cottage is built of weathered logs. Weathered wood is an ageless building material that never goes out of style and keeps getting cosier and more impressive with time. The cottage was refurbished in 2022. The atmosphere of wilderness emanating from the weathered logs is intensified by the cottage’s location near the tip of the point of land, embraced by water on three sides. Here you have an ideal viewing spot to observe the dynamic display of natural phenomena. The Ankkuri cottage is available round the year for a maximum of 6 guests.
Please note that the reservation calendar automatically considers the different minimum lengths of stay that are valid at different times: generally one week in June-August and 2 nights at other times.

Tidiness, after stay cleaning and waste
The guest renting the cottage is responsible for the tidiness of the rented premises during his/her stay. A more thorough after stay cleaning by the staff is included in the price, but please see to the following before checking out: Wash any dirty dishes, empty the waste bins, clear out any ashes from the fireplace and sauna stove firebox as well as their ash boxes and from the grill, separate the bedlinen from the blankets and pillows and replace any furniture you have moved. On the terrace, there’s a metal bucket for the ashes. If travelling with a pet, clean up any droppings near the cottage and remove any loose hair from the furniture.
We hope that you have the energy to sort your waste while at Jokiniemi. Put all recyclable waste materials (glass, metal, plastic, cardboard) in the designated containers by the woodshed. You will also find a mixed waste container there. Papers and combustible waste (not including materials lined with aluminium or containing metal) can be burned in the sauna stove. For biowaste, there is a designated composter by the tennis court on the way to the reception.
Pets
Pets are allowed in the cottage for extra charge 20,00 €/pet/stay. Guests travelling with pets must ensure that no loose hair is left on the furniture before they check out. The easiest solution to this is to cover the furniture appropriately upon arrival.
If your dog relieves itself in the vicinity of the cottage, it is your responsibility to clean up any droppings and take them to the forest to decompose there. Also ensure that your pet stays at your party’s cottage – any nesting birds should not be disturbed, and the neighbouring guests may not be dog people.
