    Awesome room, first life experience of staying in full glass wall room on a frozen lake! staff are super friendly and helpful. The forest is also amazing. The dinner prepared by the staff was good, breakfast was also thoughtful! Modern facilities in the glass room.

    The patrons of the property, every staff were so courteous. They were sharing all the information relevant to the stay. They were very helpful and accommodative. Would certainly love to return , to watch the Northern Lights, which we missed this time. Transparent billing and worth the time spent.I booked this property from India through Booking. Com. Enjoyed my stay in the Panaroma cabin with view of endless snow.

    It only had one sink to wash our dishes, no shelf in the bathroom or extra space for our toiletries. Also the microwave was very high on the kitchen shelf and not practical to use because of its location.

    It was cosy, warm, comfortable and clean with a view of the frozen lake.

    Nothing it exceeded all of our expecatations. My only continued disclaimer is to have a rental car to fully enjoy the property as it is outside of town (which we knew and planned for!)

    One of the best places we've ever stayed. Main disclaimer is you absolutely need a car to stay here. If you are not renting a car, stay closer to town. We had a car and intentionally booked a place outside of town that would give us greater visibility of the aurora. The location of this property is unlike any other. You can go on hikes to see the lights at all hours of the night and you get 360 degree views of the sky if you walk out onto the lake. The wilderness left cabin was equipped with everything we could ever need. Warm, comfortable beds, great shower facility and best of all was our private sauna. The staff was extremely helpful when we struggled making a fire for the sauna. I would recommend this property to anyone and hope to return someday!

    We had the panorama room which had a beautiful view over the lake. The property is very well maintained - clean rooms, clean shared bathrooms and clear lit paths in the evening. Minibar in our room was super convenient as we didn’t bring enough snacks with us 😊 Also lots of sleds available to have fun with

    - The Panoramaroom is really small for two persons. I wouldn’t recommend that for two persons when you are travelling with two bigger bags. Also the sofa was a little bit too soft.

    - Very nice Place to stay next to the lake - small cozy accommodation - really friendly staff - nice and organised camp - all in all a beautiful place to stay! - just peaceful quiet in the middle of the wild

    Romantic wilderness experience!

    Even though the location as such was beautiful, given that it was so remote and the Camp did not have a very rich transportation offer, it was very complicated from a logistic point of view to get to the Camp or to get from the Camp in order to do activities. The Camp only offered a few shuttles that costed extra. Upon arrival though, we had no other choice but to take a taxi from the airport to the Camp, which costed SEK 650 (for only a 12 minutes drive). We wished that the Camp would have been more considerate of the transportation situation for guests that don‘t own a car. Also, the dinner that was offered was way over-priced. It costed SEK 350 for meat balls and a pre-purchased slice of cake.

    The proximity to nature was mind-blowing. The landscape was stunning, super close to the frozen lake and in the middle of the woods. Very authentic experience. Very cosy cottage. Very private atmosphere. The room was well-equipped for anyone wanting to cook something themselves. Highly recommend to anyone searching for a glamping experience!

    Our lake view cottage was exactly as in the pictures. Aurora Camp is in a beautiful location in the wilderness and a great spot to see the Northern Lights. Unfortunately when we stayed it was cloudy. Staff were very welcoming. Aurora camp offers the opportunity to experience sleeping in an igloo. There is no running water and the toilet / showers are communal (clean) in the main area about 200m from the main part of the camp. I used the sauna for my shower and had a snow bath - very refreshing. The drive down the road can be a little scary, so just take it easy.

    Beautiful camp in the woods with lots of potential

    More towels would have been nice (e.g. one for shower, one for sauna). Washing the dishes in the small bathroom sink was a bit inconvenient. The Wilderness Suite is poorly soundproofed, so you can hear everything your neighbours are saying/doing. The Relax Room was not very relaxing or cozy - it smelled like plastic. Mosquito repellent is absolutely vital at this place. Unfortunately, the camp doesn't provide or sell any. But why not?!

    Aurora Camp is a tranquil place amidst nature, located right next to a beautiful and large lake (Torne river, actually). It has a lot of potential, most probably during the winter months when you can see northern lights. However, we came here in August when the place felt a bit abandoned. Our room (Wilderness Suite) had a functional kitchen, modern bathroom and private sauna (which we didn't use tho). We liked the oven in the room and also the outside BBQ area. The shared saunas (there were no other guests) were really nice too, with a beautiful view at the waterfront. After taking a sauna, we enjoyed a swim in the lake (which is very cold). WIFI was perfect.

    After the first night, we decided to extend our stay to two nights at Aurora Camp Kurravaara in July to make the most out of the wonderful camp site. Overall, the experience was amazing! The Wilderness Suite was extremely cozy and it even had a wooden sauna! The location was good and the views at the Torne river were astonishing.
