In between
two national parks
Our modern cabins, built of environmentally friendly, cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels that absorb carbon, are located at the heart of Lake Saimaa in the village of Oravi, standing on a narrow headland between the Linnansaari and Kolovesi National Parks. The area, imbued with history, enchants not only with its location but with its coziness, too.
Our identical nine cabins, furnished with high-quality materials, feature wall-to-ceiling windows with views towards the picturesque Lake Saimaa area. You can choose your accommodation from three unique cabin panoramas: Lake cabins offer scenic views of Lake Haukivesi and the picturesque expanse of Linnansaari National Park, View cabins provide a sweeping vista from the isthmus’s peak towards Lake Saimaa, and Canal cabins offer perspectives directed towards the historic Oravi canal. The panoramic windows are perfect for letting some of the pure Finnish light in, or for admiring the clear night skies. If you’re extra lucky, you might even catch sight of some Northern Lights.
Each of our holiday cottages offers a stunning view of Lake Saimaa, which is free for anyone to swim, fish, and play in. Our bright and spacious cabins are perfect for travelers who seek quality accommodation in a natural setting.
You can enhance your cottage experience with a breakfast. The breakfast will be delivered to the cabin in a cooler as a ready-to-eat package. You can enjoy a variety of tasty treats for breakfast, and easily take the leftovers with you as snacks, even on a forest hike!
The idyllic Oravi village and the services offered by the small community, ranging from a village shop and a restaurant to various leisure and outdoor activities, are located on the other side of the headland, just a short walk away from the resort area.

Choose from three different cabin views
Lake
Cabins 1-3
The Lake cabins, located on the southern shore of the Kanava Resort site, offer a stunning view towards Lake Saimaa and the scattered islands and islets of the Linnansaari National Park. For an extra touch of peace and privacy during your stay, we recommend booking our most secluded cabins, 1 or 2.
View
Cabins 5-7
Our View cabins, located at the tip of Puistoniemi overlooking the intersection of Lake Saimaa and the Oravi canal, are popular for good reason. The floor-to-ceiling windows of these cabins provide expansive lake views that leave guests speechless time and time again. Even a Saimaa ringed seal has been spotted from the cabins in spring!
Canal
Cabins 8-10
Cabins 8-10 are our pet-friendly accommodations. Situated on the northern side of our little isthmus, the Canal cabins offer views towards the historic Oravi open canal. The canal scenery can only be admired from the cabins, making them an excellent choice for nature lovers.
Discover Kanava Resort, Oravi Village, and the charming Lake Saimaa area
There is one shared parking area for vehicles on the resort’s grounds, as well as up to four charging stations for electric cars (surcharge). You can drive your vehicle to the door of your rented cabin for unloading luggage, but please move it to the parking area afterwards so that the emergency routes remain clear. Airport transfers from Savonlinna Airport to Kanava Resort and back are available by prior arrangement.
Paths from the cabins lead to Kanava Resort’s private and shallow, sandy beach, which also has a shared dock.
On the beachfront, between cottages 3 and 5, you’ll also find Kanava Resort’s own campfire spot. Firewood for the open fire at the campfire spot can be found in each cottage as well as from the woodshed located near the tip of the Kanava Resort area.
There are a total of nine cabins on Kanava Resort’s grounds. The plot also includes an old vaulted cellar, and a glass pavilion, suitable for organizing small events and meetings on-site.
