PajurantaHolidayHomes is a fisherman’s paradise in Parikkala. Nice cottages Rantakallio, Villa Tarula and Villa Niemelä are on the shore of Haapalahti. Haapalahti is an excellent pike and zander lake. Along the canal, you can also get to the bigger Simpelejärvi to fish for pike, zander and perch. Hiekkaranta is on the shore of Lake Simpelejärvi.

We had a lot of customers last summer.

Last summer we rented five fishing boats. Fishermen came from Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Austria, Switzerland, France, Holland and Israel.
The biggest fish
The biggest pike were caught by the Romanians from 12.5-18.5.2025 107, 105, 103, 103, 100 and countless smaller ones.
The Lithuanians caught 5.2 kg pike-perch
The Slovenians caught over a kilo of perch in August.
There are still boats available
There are really good bookings for next spring from 22.5-8.6, all the bigger boats are booked, even though we bought a 6 boat Buster XRS.
It is worth booking a fishing holiday for spring quickly so you can still get a boat. There are plenty of boats available for summer and autumn.

Bring your own boat You can also bring your own boat or boats and rent a cottage from us. The boat ramp is right next to the cottages. Last summer, many groups from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania visited with their own boats.

On the Saimaa beach we have 4 cottages Villa Joutsen, Villa Norppa, Villa Saimaa and Villa Raikala
