About this property

Cosy mountain lake ski retreat, relaxation Scandinavian style

Our guests return each year to enjoy this clean and cozy home in the mountains.

The light filled house boasts tall timber lined ceilings, a beautiful log fire, internal traditional wood oven (perfect for your favourite pizza) and a Finnish sauna to revive you at the end of the day.

With 2 bedrooms the house comfortably sleeps 6.
The main bedroom has a queen bed with ensuite and walk in robe.
The second bedroom has a double bed and bunks.
All beds are clean, warm and comfortable - bedding and linen is provided.

Walk over the road and fish Lake Eucumbene from the bank or bring your boat and use the boat ramp at the end of the street. Or explore the numerous trout filled streams nearby for that elusive Rainbow or Brown.

Pets are welcome over the warmer months - between October and May. Unfortunately we have had problems in the past with pets being left alone in the house in the winter while people go skiing, and it is too cold for them to be left outside. Please note the garden is not fenced.

Mt Selwyn ski resort is a 40min drive away and offers family friendly facilities. If you have hit the slopes and caught a fish you might like to take a drive to the amazing Yarrangabilly Caves. Picnic in this stunning hidden valley, soak up the history of this 100 year old mountain resort and take a dip in the thermal pool.

There are several horse riding operators in the area if you feel like the Man from Snowy River experience. Or just relax. The comforts of the house can make it hard to leave the fireside. You may just stay put and enjoy the quality selection of DVDs, books and games.

Take a wander on the 5km bush fire trail at the back for lovely views of the area. At the end of the day supervise the BBQ from the deck and watch the sun set over the mountains in the company of the friendly local wildlife.

Coffee and the paper can be found just a 15 minute drive away at the Adaminaby bakery where you will find cream buns, curry pies, coffee and lovely fresh bread, there is also an IGA, the pub 'the Snowgoose' and local takeaway for meals and supplies.

I'll be back

Highly recommended lodging. The host, Alex, is an excellent host who communicates very well and is very responsive. I had a very pleasurable stay in the Finnish cottage with 2 fishing buddies (too old for tents now) which we found to be very warm and energy efficient even in a couple of sizable May frosts. It’s very well equipped with lots of crockery, pots and pans and a Weber on the front veranda. It has a great layout with 2 separated bedrooms and bathrooms and a sizable lounge area, great for get aways with friends. It was very clean with good quality linen and had a good supply of firewood. We will absolutely be booking again, thank you Alex.

Property was great, perhaps some microwave containers needed. Unfortunately we did not have one bite from trout and that was the reason for visit. Quite remote area.

Trip to the mountains

We stayed at the Finnish Cottage as we wanted to visit the Snowy Mountains in autumn- it was a great place to have as a base. Loved the sauna and fireplace and the locality.

About the host

Hosted by Alex Harrington

Host profile image
The Finnish Cabin was built by my Finnish grandparents in the 1980s and includes a traditional Finnish sauna, wood fired bread oven and unique Finnish decor. We are pleased to be able to share this happy hideaway and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

The remote bush setting close to the lake and within an hour of the ski fields is a perfect base to explore the mountains.

What makes this property unique

The open plan, split level design both brings people together and provides space for everyone. People regularly comment on the thoughtful design of the cabin and the comfort it brings.
