Winter at the Northern Comfort Lodge
Jämtland lies in the north-western part of Sweden, bordering Swedish Lapland to the north and Norway to the west. It is the second-largest province in Sweden, making up just over 8% of the country's total area but with an average population density of just over 3 persons per square kilometre. More than two thirds of Jämtland’s population lives in the small number of urban centres in the province, making rural Jämtland very sparsely-populated and ideal for wilderness activities.

The Northern Comfort Lodge is a spacious, comfortable, traditionally-constructed Swedish log cabin located on the shore of Lake Revsund in Jämtland. The lodge has everything you might expect of an idyllic Swedish log cabin – a beautiful lakeside/forest location, spacious, airy living area, private sauna and a wood-burning stove.
But the lodge also has a few surprises – including a larger wood-heated outside sauna and hot-tub “bathing barrel” right by the water’s edge!
Whatever you are looking for from a log cabin holiday - be it adventure, romance or an active family break, the Northern Comfort Lodge offers an ideal location for couples, families or groups of up to 8 persons. Accommodation at the lodge is divided into four bedrooms, each sleeping two persons, with a large open-plan kitchen and living area, decorated throughout in traditional style.
In winter, Jämtland lies thick with snow. The lakes freeze over and the landscape becomes a magical winter playground. If it is relaxation you are looking for, the lodge is an excellent base to simply enjoy the quiet and beauty of the snow-clad forest (perhaps while the children go off to build snowmen or make snow-angels!). If you would prefer more adventurous experience, there is a wide range of both guided and self-guided activities available, including snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and ice fishing. Dog sledding tours in the surrounding area are also available. You can choose to drive your own sled (a real winter adventure!) or for families with children, you can relax on the sled while an expert local musher guides you through the winter landscape.
A stay at the Northern Comfort Lodge is an uplifting, close-to-nature experience suitable for all ages and levels of ability. The lodge is normally available for booking for 8-day periods Saturday-Saturday. Outside high season other start days and durations may be possible. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
