Rovaniemi
Wilderness Villa with Aurora View
A private lakeside villa with a wood-fired sauna and the aurora over the water.
About this place
A private lakeside villa surrounded by forest, 20 km from Rovaniemi. Sauna, fireplace and unobstructed views of the Northern Lights from your own terrace.
Escape to the Arctic wilderness in this lakeside villa, just 20 kilometres from Rovaniemi. Surrounded by untouched forest and set on the shore of a quiet lake, this is the Lapland experience at its most authentic.
The villa has three bedrooms, a spacious living area with a wood-burning fireplace, and a fully equipped kitchen. The highlight is the traditional wood-fired Finnish sauna with direct access to the lake — in winter, brave an ice swim afterwards for the ultimate Arctic experience.
The large terrace overlooks the lake and surrounding forest, with unobstructed views of the sky. This is one of the best spots near Rovaniemi for watching the Northern Lights: no light pollution, just you and the aurora.
A car is recommended, as the villa sits off the main road. The driveway is plowed in winter, and we provide directions and tips for the drive.
