farm stays
You can come to Rantakorpi just for the night, or you can add some farm experiences to your holiday! You can observe farm life and the animals, enjoy the lake and proximity to nature, go on hikes or take part on trail rides. Hankasalmi and its vicinity also offer many interesting hiking locations. We offer breakfast, lunch, coffees and supper on order.
Onnela
Onnela is the cozy apartment situated in a wing of the house, featuring its own entrance and well-equipped kitchen. The apartment has a 120 cm bed sofa and a 140 cm wide bed in the loft. The toilet, shower and sauna department is situated between the two wings and are mutually used by the house residents. It’s also easy to access the backyard and the lake from this space when having a sauna.
Ida’s Chamber
Ida’s Chanber room is a neat and atmospheric room in the upstairs of the main building, accessed by stairs from the main living room. The living room also offers access to the shared bathroom and sauna section. The upper room has a small chest fridge and a 120 cm wide bed as well as a desk. It’s best suited for bed ‘n’ breakfast or full-service accommodation.
The Teeri Cottage
The Teeri Cottage is located 3 km away from the farm, completely in its own peace. The round-logged cottage has a kitchen and a sauna. The main room features a 120 cm – wide bed, an 80 cm – wide couch/bed and a kitchenette with everything necessary. The yard has a campfire spot and a coal grill. The sauna offers exceptionally mellow ”löyly”, with the water to the sauna sourced from a nearby spring and warmed in the sauna stove. The yard area of the cottage is bordered by a sheep field and forest. Swimming opportunities can be found at the public beach of Niemisjärvi 7 km away or the Rantakorpi farm.
Beach Cabin
The beach cottage is a new, naturally beautiful log cabin situated on the shore of the farm’s main building. The big windows of the cabin offer a lovely view to the Small Kaihlanen. The cabin loft fits three people – those staying overnight require some dexterity, for the ladder leading to the loft is extremely steep. The loft is also quite low, so movement up there is necessarily stooped. The cabin is suited for camping-style overnight stays. The terrace is handy to grill on, and the pier, boat, beach and campfire spot are at your service. The cabin features a percolator, water kettle, small fridge and basic tableware. We recommend having breakfast in the main building of the farm. You also have the farm’s dry toilet at your disposal, as well as the main building’s bathroom/shower/sauna. We can warm up the sauna of the cabin itself for a separate fee.
