All Ski DealsRuka Log Cabins 3* Ruka, Finland
The Ruka Log Cabins are the accommodation of choice for anyone looking for the ultimate Finnish experience. Traditionally built and furnished, the cabins are nestled in an idyllic woodland setting – ideal for those who like peace and privacy but don’t want to be too far from the centre.
It’s a 5-minute walk to the ski bus stop and a 12-minute walk to Ruka Valley if you are based in East Ruka, or a 30 minute walk to Ruka Village if you are based in West Ruka – good for warming up in the morning but it might be a challenge if you’re travelling with small children. On the other hand, you can take advantage of the hill and sledge back down to your cabin at the end of the day.
The open log fire and drying cabinet means that both you and your clothes will always be warm and cosy, even in the freezing temperatures that Finland is famous for. And you can always visit the private sauna for an extra burst of heat.
Spacious living areas and full kitchens mean these cabins are good for families and groups of friends. The supermarket is at least a 25-minutes walk (or short bus ride) away and it's reasonably priced, so you can avoid the high restaurant prices in Ruka by cooking at home. Evenings can be spent relaxing in front of the fire, or maybe trying to spy the Northern Lights out of the window – but you can still head into town if you fancy a night out.
- Traditional log cabins among the trees.
- Private sauna in each cabin.
- Snuggle up by a proper wood fire.

Good To Know
Just so you know, each cabin is individually owned and may look slightly different from the images shown. And while all the cabins are in the same part of the resort, it’s not possible to guarantee that multiple cabins will be located next to each other.
Check-in is at 4pm. If your transfer arrives before then, you'll be dropped off in Ruka's village centre. From here, you'll need to take the ski bus to your cabin at check-in time, which is free with a lift pass.
Check-out is at 12pm. If your transfer coach is scheduled after then, you'll need to make your own way to the village centre on the ski bus to be collected. Due to the narrow roads, the coach doesn't have direct access to your cabin and you might need to walk a short way with your luggage.
WiFi isn't available in the cabins, so you'll really be able to unplug and enjoy a digital detox during your stay.

The advantage of booking a self-catered skiing holiday is often the price. The disadvantages mean either eating out, which in a ski resort is often expensive, or it means having to cook your own meals, which probably means less time skiing, and who really wants to shop and then cook an evening meal after a full days skiing?
Huski, the Alps-based catering business offers a great solution, that means you can still enjoy the great value of a ski apartment or self-catered chalet and eat well without the fuss of having to cook your own food.
Huski delivers a week’s worth of dishes, freshly frozen and ready for you to just heat and serve.
Please Note
Huski catering is only available to properties in French ski resorts.
