Lieber Kai , vielen Dank nochmals, das wir bei dir sein durften !Nuuksio ist ein toller Platz, kurz vor Helsinki.Es gibt 2 Cottages und viel Platz für Zelte , eine Außenküche und auch Geschirr ist vorhanden.Kai ist ein ganz netter Gastgeber, der alle Wünsche um den Aufenthalt zu einem Erlebnis zu machen, zu erfüllen versucht .Nach Helsinki ist es ca 30 min .

Miellyttävä kokemus luonnon keskellä.

My partner and I visited Nuuksio for one night and stayed in one of the cottages. The perfect place to stay in the middle of nature - we loved the whole camp site! The bath rooms and beds are good; basic, yet decent breakfast is included, as well as bikes. Unfortunately, we had such short stay so we didn't get the chance to go cycling and neither use the great outdoor kitchen to cook a meal, nor the sauna. Kai is such a lovely host, he welcomed us very warmly and we had a comfy afternoon on the porch, playing guitar, singing and having tea!We definitely want to come back and stay longer next time!Thank you very much for everything again, Kai!Teresa & René

Our stay at Nuuksio Hostel and camping was more than enjoyable. The facilities such as tents, showers and outdoor kitchen were tidy and up to standard. The campsite is easily accessible and not far from Helsinki and the perfect getaway to explore Nuuksio park.We made daily use of the breakfast that was included, the kitchen to prepare our own meals and the fridge to store our food and drinks. There were also bicycles available which our group used for a quick trip to the grocery store.My personal favourite was the sauna, fire pit and lapland cabin where Kai's guitar and personal anecdotes kept us warm on colder evenings.By just calling him our host we don't give him enough credit. He was not only our host but also local guide, storyteller, teacher and at times personal barista. Kai surprises us multiple occasions with authenthic artisanal delicacies such as a hand-picked mushroom dish and homemade mustard.He taught us how to catch and cook our own fish, went mushroom picking and took us on a beautiful and adventurous canoe trip that was really rewarding. Kai is very helpful and has such a warm and interesting personality. He made sure we had everything we needed to feel right at home. Nothing was too much to ask for. Kai is one of the most authentic people I know, which makes his campsite a special place that takes your holiday to the next level. It was an experience I won't forget soon.If you want to explore endless Finnish nature through the eyes of a local, and relax to the fullest, this is the campsite for you.

Hele vriendelijk eigenaar die bereid is om je met alles te helpen! Goede faciliteiten op het gehele terrein en daar ook een prima verbintenis met de natuur mee. Net sanitair, een mooie vuurplek en koelkast voor je eigen eten en drinken.€20 per persoon per nacht voor op de camping.Ook op prima afstand van Helsinki, maar een half uur rijden met de auto. Ondanks dat je relatief bij de stad bent, voelt dit niet zo en verblijf je in de natuur!

We had two amazing days at the campsite. Kai is incredibly friendly and personal. He knows a lot about Helsinki (30 min drive) + surroundings and loves nature. This is something you can see in the way he manages the campsite + hostel. The garden is beautiful and there’s fresh herbs to pick. The camping was more expensive than usual (we paid 100 euro’s for two nights, 25.- pp pn), but if you look for personal, small scale and charm than it’s more than worth it.

Staying here was the best decision we could have made during our trip to Finland. We used the tents and were provided with everything we needed: matresses, warm and clean sleeping bags, pillows and also cuttlery and cups/plates.Nuuksio NP is so beautiful and calm, and just around the corner of the camping. The camping has very good facilties: plenty of clean and comfortable toilets and showers, a well equiped outside kitchen, a fireplace, a beautiful Lapland hut, etc.But what really makes this place special is Kai, he is the kindest host you could wish for, really going the extra mile to make your stay unforgettable. Anything you need, just ask him and he will help you out, always with a smile on his face! 100% would recommend staying at his place.

Een onvergetelijke ervaring! Als je wil herbronnen in de natuur en in contact wil komen met de Finse cultuur, dan ben je hier aan het juiste adres. De gastheer laat je onmiddellijk thuis voelen op deze plek en zorgt ervoor dat je alles hebt wat nodig is om je verblijf aangenaam te maken. De camping is voorzien van een goed sanitair, een uitgebreide keuken en comfortabele tenten. 's Avonds kun je relaxen rond het kampvuur of in de Lapland hut.Bedankt Kai voor je gastvrijheid! Blijf voor altijd de persoon die je bent! Veel groeten uit België!
