The Koukku cottage is a new and bright log cottage that accommodates even a larger party all year round. The kitchen–living room combo is excellently suited for casual socialising or having a meeting. In summertime, you can use the wood-heated sauna in a separate lakeside building, and in the winter, just enjoy the convenience of the electrically heated sauna within the cottage. The cottage is heated ecologically with geothermal energy, and the cooling equipment add to living comfort in hot summer days. The Koukku cottage accommodates up to 8 people.

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.

Keys, arrival and key handback

Upon your arrival, please check in at the reception, address Jokiniementie 62, 71910 Alapitkä (Lapinlahti). You will get the key to the cottage and instructions on how to get there. The earliest check-in time is 4.00 pm on your arrival date, and the key is to be handed back by 12 noon on your departure date.

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 entrance. 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 fireplace. 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.
