The small yard at Mustavuori Rental Campfire Hut is fenced. There are two gates in the fence, one to the hiking trails (pictured) and the other to the path leading to the pier. The yard has a campfire site, tables and benches. A locked firewood shed and outhouse are located right next to the yard. Photo: Heidi Kilpeläinen.

A brown gate is in the foreground of the image. Behind the gate, a narrow forest path leads down the hill to the shore. A wooden pier is visible on the shore.

There is also a canoe pier on the shore of Mustavuori Rental Campfire Hut. Photo: Heidi Kilpeläinen.

A small, black wood stove is in the middle of the hut. There is a cooking surface on top of the stove, and it is surrounded by a stone counter.

The wood stove heats up quickly and food can be prepared on the stove top. The door of the stove has a glass window, so the fire also provides light. Photo: Heidi Kilpeläinen.
