Private group accommodation for 6–24 guests in the peace of nature in Central Finland. Enjoy a spacious lakeside retreat with large grounds, multiple buildings, sauna, smoke sauna, nature trail and plenty of space and activities for your group.
Palvia offers a combination of traditional Finnish countryside atmosphere and modern living comfort. There is no hurry here.
Just nature, peace and your own moment. Welcome to escape the everyday – together.

A wood-burning lakeside sauna with a terrace is freely at your disposal. In addition, an authentic, large Finnish smoke sauna (up to 10 people at a time) is available upon request, pre-heated for €200.
The marked nature trail starts right from the yard. The path runs through spruce forests, bogs and old-growth forest, partly on boardwalks. Along the route there is a kota hut and a campfire site.
Connected to the main house is a 130 m² sun terrace facing the lake and a grill shelter seating about 30 people. At the shore there is also a large sauna terrace and a separate kota hut.
Freely available at the shore are two rowing boats and two SUP boards along with plenty of life jackets. You can fish or simply row on our beautiful lake.
Plenty of free outdoor and indoor games are available on site. Guided activities are offered by local entrepreneurs – we help you find the right one if needed. All services in the Jämsä area can be found on the Visit Himos Jämsä activities page.
There are no on-site food services. Ready meals are delivered by Kievari Rantapirtti. Event and conference services are provided by Lindeman Oy / Savion Hovi.

Palvia is not an ordinary accommodation. It is a private retreat for small groups who value peace, nature and quality.
Plenty of space outdoors, an excellently equipped kitchen and beautiful lake views. Special points for the smoke sauna. There was enough sleeping space and privacy when needed, even for a larger group. Communication with the owner was effortless.
Plenty of accommodation and a great setting for a large group. The wood-heated sauna is spacious with excellent steam. The ice hole is a plus. A very well-equipped cottage with everything promised.
The accommodation was very clean and perfect for a larger group. The shared spaces were lovely, while there was still enough room for privacy when wanted.
The host is very friendly, helpful and responds quickly. The accommodation is excellent for large groups. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped and the accommodation is spotlessly clean.
I absolutely recommend this wonderful forest paradise for a family holiday. Five families stayed together and enjoyed nature, peace, beauty, fishing, boating, sauna and hiking. The children loved fishing, playing outdoors and boating on beautiful Lake Palvia. We have visited in winter for skiing at Himos and again in summer. Both times our children said it was the best place and holiday ever. Thank you for the warm welcome.
