Situated 11 km from Ivalo town centre, Ukonjärven Holiday Village offers chalets with free Wi-Fi access and flat-screen TV. It lies in a peaceful forest area by Lake Ukonjärvi, 22 km from Ivalo Airport.

Popular wintertime activities include cross-country skiing. Guests might also experience the northern lights. During summer, guests can rent boats or enjoy a swim at the private beach area.

Very comfortable chalet by the lake. We saw auroras twice! You can walk on the lake anytime at night to admire the night sky. Very convenient for aurora seeing. No need to book tours. Right there are your doorstep. You wont be cold, plenty of heaters and an additional fireplace. You need a car to get there.

    We had an amazing stay in the Arctic River Rtheiresort. we stayed there for 3 nights with family. they had provided us their best cottage as we had kids with us. the service was exceptional. They called their aurora tour guide at late night on our request just to satisfy our queries. The location is also amazing. We were extremely lucky that we could see dancing aurora from just outside our cottage. Their Husky tour was also amazing.

    It was amazing three nights! We got a nice, cozy and warm cabin with our own sauna and kitchen right around a beautiful river and forest . The staff here is extremely nice and helpful. Restaurant has plenty of options of delicious food and good affordable breakfast (15€). They also have plenty of attractions on site like snowmobiles, skiing, snow walking, aurora haunting and so on. Close to the site there is a bus toward Rovaniemi and backwards so we were able visit the ski resort one day.

    The only luxury that I found was the quietness and the proximity to the lake makes an awesome spot to watch the auroras, which I could even see in a day without major activity. Staff provided me some snow shoes so I could go walk around! Con: There's nothing around. Pro: There's nothing around.

    This is a beautiful resort in the woods and near the Ivalo river. The aurora-viewing igloo/cabins are charming - possibly a bit on the small side for two people, but brilliant for a solo traveller. The staff are astonishingly nice and friendly and the food is great. This is a good place for doing one's own thing (e.g. hiking in the woods in the snow); there is no pressure to book activities. The barrel sauna is very nice.
