VILLA RÄÄPYS

Holiday home details

Spacious and beautiful villa on the fish-rich shores of Lake Rääpysjärvi, 50 km north of Varkaus. A very peaceful location with significant elevation changes and beautiful forest nature in the surrounding area. The nearest neighbor is about 300 m away. The lakeshore is 25 m away, featuring a spacious pier, a rowing boat, and an Indian canoe. The water quality of the lake is excellent. The shore is initially shallow with a hard gravel bottom for about 4-5 m, then quickly deepens to a muddy bottom. Children can swim from the shore, while adults are advised to use the pier ladder for swimming. There is plenty of water at the end of the pier.
