Reviewed Aug 30, 2026Lugnt och avskilt, det här var 2:a gången vi bodde här. Bra för hundarna. Den här gången var vädret inte så bra men det finns uteplats med tak. Perfekt läge för oss som skulle tävla med hundarna på Skutberget. Välutrustat kök och badrum.
Det är ju litet o badrummet är i annan byggnad men det är ju tydligt i beskrivningen.

The sauna even though we never used it looked pretty comfortable. Overall a great place with great hosts who are helpfull with requests. The trampoline is amazing when traveling with kids. Although smaller rooms it's lovely and cozy with a maximum of 7 sleeping spots if needed. Sleeping couch was comfortabel as well.

Reviewed Aug 16, 2025Chtěli jsme jen přespat, pak jsme se rozhodli pro dvoudenní pauzu na cestě, ale tady bychom vydrželi spokojení i týden! Chatičky malé ale útulné a praktický zařízené, kuchyň s koupelnou jen kousíček, naštěstí nám nepršelo (ale deštníky jsou připravené u dveří). Z terasy jsme pozorovali srnku. Na pláž příjemná procházka. Všude kolem záplava borůvek. A moc se mi líbilo několik možností na posezení u chatiček, na terase, pod pergolou. DOPORUČUJEME::+)

Reviewed Mar 12, 2025Amazing value, enchanting surroundings and a lot of peace and quiet! I saw an elk in the forest at night.
The backyard was a bit slippery, but who can be blamed with all that snow!
9/10
Reviewed Nov 26, 2024The location and scenery is breathtaking. The forest is at your doorstep and lake Vänern just a short walk away. If you want a break and to get closer to nature, this is ideal. If the weather doesn't play nice, you are very close to Karlstad. The option to stay in to work or socialize is also a good one, but remember it's not a huge cabin. The 5G mobile coverage is excellent and you can game or stream for days. I can highly recommend this place, unless you really need a bathroom right by the bed. There is kitchen, toilet, shower and sauna in another house approximately 10 meters from the two cabins. The owner is friendly as well.
If it's raining for multiple days you may need a plan B, or to be geared up for it. The indoors area is not big enough for a full family to stay indoors for a very long time, but that is to be expected given the information on here.

Reviewed Sep 27, 2023If you like quiet and interesting places this is the one to stay in! Nice host, very helpful. We booked both rooms, so kitchen, bathroom with sauna and jacuzzi was for us only (it might be a bit uncomfortable if you share it with strangers). Lots of things for younger kids to explore, playground. Wonderful location in the woods, 10min walk to the lake beach. Blueberries everywhere. Really recommend!
Bathroom/kitchen cabin is about 20m from bedrooms, so at night and rain, it may feel a bit uncomfortable to use it, but we had lovely weather and it was not an issue for us.

Reviewed Aug 15, 2023If you want to relax, go there! You have a Sauna, Jacuzzi and you can hear nothing but the birds and crickets. It’s close to a lake you can jump in after heating up in the sauna. You have everything you need like toilet and shower. The hosts informs you about everything in a message before.
It would be great if the cottages had signs saying „community Kittchen & sauna“, „toilet“,… So you could find it easier. Everything else was perfect and I have nothing to complain about. :)

Reviewed Jul 3, 2023Proximity to the lake. Sufficient amenities provided. Kitchen and bathroom quite new. Free use of sauna and jacuzzi (although we were a bit sceptical about the water and passed)
The listed ad. was misleading. In the somewhat 10 square meters room there are only beds. Both bathroom/toilet and kitchen are shared and approx. 15meters across the yard from the rooms. So be careful if would like private kitchen or bathroom. Room was not ready at time of check in.

Reviewed Jun 30, 2023This is a lovely place to spend a night.m There are actually only 2 units (and we were there alone). Surroundings are beautiful. Check in and check out is left up to the guest (email with all details). Sauna, Jacuzzi, shower etc. all provided. rooms are small, but adequate for a stay in the forest.
Shared kitchen, bathroom, sauna, shower are all in 1...this makes privacy a bit of an issue. If someone is using the shower, the toilet is also in use. Likewise with sauna and sink. This is a bit of an inconvenience.

Reviewed Jun 20, 2023We really enjoyed the jacuzzi and the view on all the beautiful trees. The host was really friendly as well. Both our cabin and the facilities cabin was really clean.
