Rantasauna means "sauna by the shore", which is something very dear to all Finns, and there couldn't be a more accurate description of our house than that. It is a detached mökki in the traditional Finnish log cabin style, but equipped with modern comforts. Guests can sleep in the roof gallery, which is open to the living room below; downstairs lies the living room with a soapstone stove and a kitchenette (fridge, electric stove, microwave, oven) and a bathroom (shower) with a wood-fired sauna. The mökki has heating/air conditioning with a heat pump. The mökki is not very big and is therefore only suitable for up to 2 adults and approx. 2 children. All bed linen and bath/hand towels are provided. Attention: The wooden stairs to the roof gallery are narrow and steep and therefore not suitable for very small children or people who have difficulty walking.

The mökki is surrounded by nature directly on Lake Pielavesi, just a few meters from the lake shore, on a large private property. On the same property there is a larger house that is used by the owners as a holiday home. Nature lovers looking for peace and quiet have definitely come to the right place. Lots of wild animals, birds, rabbits, deers etc. can be seen. The part of the lake that you see is a quiet bay of the 110 km2 Pielavesi Lake and is also suitable for fishing and swimming. In winter the lake freezes over and is then also suitable for ice fishing. If you would like to fish from a rowing boat, we might be able to make this possible. Just ask us. The village of Pielavesi with all essential shops for everyday needs is 25 km away, the Kuopio regional airport is 90 km away, the nearest cities are Kuopio (100 km) and Iisalmi (60 km). There are no shops, restaurants or other facilities in the vicinity of the property and the property cannot be reached by public transport.
