    Hellepäivänä majapaikka järven äärellä oli upea. Uimarantaan oli sadan metrin kävely, ja Oriveden vesi oli virkistävää. Huoneisto oli kahdelle tilava, ja sieltä löytyi kaikki tarvittava hiustenkuivaajaa lukuun ottamatta.

    Kaunis, rauhallinen paikka. Asunto siisti ja tilava. Venettä sai lainata. Hinta, laatusuhde hyvä.

    Siisti avara huoneisto. Auton sai oven eteen. Siististä mokkamasterista iso plussa. Kaikki tarvittava löytyi. Hyvät sängyt. Rauhallista. Kesällä olisi varmasti hienoa lasten kanssa.

    Paikka on tosi luonnonläheinen ja viehättävä vesistön äärellä oleva.

    Kaikin puolin toimiva, kuvien ja kuvauksien mukainen majoitus

    Upea sijainti ja mökki ihan rannassa. Ja erillinen oma rantasaunakin.
  • Saana

    Mukava paikka. Epähuomiossa varasimme saunattoman majoituksen mutta saimme lisähinnasta käyttää saunaa joka löytyi läheltä. Omistaja ystävällinen ja palvelualtis. Grilli löytyi ja sai olla rauhassa luonnon lähellä.
