Saltdal log cabin by the sea on Grønøya

This classic Saltdal log cabin from 2002 sits close to the sea, sheltered from the worst of the wind, which comes from the other side of Grønøya. In summer, you’ll have sunshine for most of the day, even with the mountain right in front of you.



The cabin is cosy and warm, with firewood by the fireplace and plenty stored in several places – indoors, under the terrace, by the garage and in the boathouse. The bedroom with bunk beds has a classic cabin feel. The wood-fired hot tub is filled with a garden hose; instructions are included.



In the boathouse, you’ll find a fire bowl to light on long summer evenings. There are a few terrace boards the host would like to replace, but the cabin has a genuine soul and shows the thoughtful care it has received over the years.



From the cabin, you can see Risnestinden, which the host considers one of the finest hikes in Meløy – at the top, a 360° view opens out over the Helgeland coast and north towards Lofoten. Nearby, you’ll also find Ronsfjellet and a lovely, cold swimming beach at Åmnes Camping. At Grønøy kai and in Engavågen, you’ll find local shops, coffee and sometimes homemade food.
