About the host

Host profile image
It was a lifelong dream for me to have a cottage. I bought this piece of land and worked at it over 5 years. I built the sauna and the dock first and lived in a prospector tent. When Covid hit, I took the opportunity to build the cottage full time. We are truly looking forward to sharing our dream and love of nature with you.
