The Nuotta cottage boasts an attractive location: an exceptionally gorgeous private beach where those long summer days are crowned by a beautiful sunset. Equally impressive are the stormy days when you can just marvel at the mighty forces of nature, not to mention the northern lights on clear nights. Built in the 1970s, Nuotta has seen minor changes and improvements over the years, most recently in 2000. More amenities have been added and the appearance enlivened, yet honouring the past and the original spirit. The cottage is built of round logs. It is available for up to 4 persons in May-October.
Please note that the reservation calendar automatically considers the different minimum lengths of stay that are valid at given times: generally one week in June-August and 2 nights at other times.

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 sauna 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 woodshed. 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 sauna stove. 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 no extra charge. 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.
