Boathouse Great Lake Östersund

· Boathouse Great Lake Östersund ·

When I think back to the trips that have stayed with me the most, Östersund in Sweden's Jämtland definitely stands out. Three of us embarked on a girls' road trip from Stockholm. In the house right by the lake, we spent unforgettable days with a glass of wine in hand, and the nights, which hardly ever got truly dark, seemed to never end. It’s perfect for 2-3 people and has everything you need. The interior design is classically Scandinavian, beautifully executed with great attention to detail. The tiny house isn’t completely isolated in the middle of nowhere, but you hardly notice the neighbors since the terrace is entirely built facing the lake. Fia Gulliksson, the host, lives in a larger house near the boathouse. She is an impressive and warm-hearted personality. Fia is a head chef and serial entrepreneur with a focus on creative gastronomy. She is also the initiator behind Östersund’s achievement of being named a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy. We really enjoyed that she could recommend great restaurants for us to try.
