Nothing fancy? That kind of mökki is definitely for upper middle class, most finns have to settle for more modest summerhouses. Its not so much about the fanciness of the building itself, but the beautiful views and proximity to Savonlinna add a lot to its value.

@villemartikainen9394 that was my exact thought. Most finns would not have financial means to buy this type of mökki, unless they inherited it or high middle income earners.

We have 2 solarpanels for TV, one wind generator for the lights, liquid gas for fridge/freezer and stove. Water buckets, outhouse and firewood. 60km/37mi to the nearest town and market. 10km to the closest neighbour. Our mökki is not part of this world. It's a place where you forget your name. If you can sail to Castle Olav, then you can also drive to my mökki. But I do not recommend as lake Saimaa is such a labyrinth

But yeah, the atmosphere is quite hard to describe, relaxing and dreamy (though a work camp for some). As for kids I guess it's kinda "Stand by me" movie kind of adventurous time. Interesting to see some bits and pieces of Savonlinna, I guess I'll have to visit that city!

And even on a mökki lot we have some farming/gardening still as a part of surviving. We grow our own potatoes, currants, raspberries, carrots and stuff... As in highrise town apartment we so not have that much of a garden... And even make some canned fish if we are lucky.

Hey, nice vid! Number 1 Mökki-rule is: Relax That is why one buys the mökki: to chill out. ..and chills comes later when the Mökki-payments starts running. And the repair costs. And the property taxes. And the transport costs. And the road maintenance fees. The bat/mouse trapping. Emptying dry toilet. Hacking firewood. Repainting boat+deck. Cleaning the roof. Moving the lawn. Getting rid off ants+wasps. As said - Darn relaxing, the first ten minutes!
