Do you dream of a sanctuary where time stands still and nature takes center stage?
This cabin, which the hosts have named `Usett´, was originally built in the 1960s and is located on Hvaler. It was modernized in 2019. Here you'll find a perfect blend of simple living and modern comforts, where you can breathe in the fresh sea air and let the view of the magnificent archipelago sink in.
Inside, you'll find an open and inviting living area with integrated and flexible solutions, large sliding doors to the south- and west-facing terrace and two bedrooms with smart storage solutions. Three spacious bedrooms, a bathroom and a storage room in the new building provide plenty of space for everyone, and the combination of functionality and reuse gives the interior a unique charm.
The outdoor area is a dream for nature lovers, with large terraces, a vegetable garden and plenty of space for both relaxation and socializing. Here you can enjoy the day's meals cooked in the pizza oven or at the barbecue, and a party can be set up when the sun goes down.
The area invites adventure and the fantastic Hvaler archipelago is right outside the door. It's a short distance to local culture and dining experiences on land and by water. There are good opportunities to follow the well-marked coastal paths in the national park through beautiful natural landscapes. Skjærhalden has a good selection of restaurants, shops and a pleasant guest harbor.

My name is Jøril, and `Usett´ is mine and my family's cabin. We live in Oslo on a daily basis, and use the opportunities we have to pack our bags both summer and winter. We love our cabin - it's functional and flexible with lots of soul and is close to nature. Here we can really feel like we're getting out of the city to find peace and quiet with family and friends, or alone. Our cabin is our sanctuary that gives us the opportunity to slow down, enjoy nature and what the moments have to offer.
If the weather permits, we take our kayak and hammock and spend the night on one of the nearby islands. Beaches and lazy days on the cliffs are just a short drive away. We love lazy summer evenings on the terrace, amidst the silence, enjoying the sunset overlooking the spectacular Hvaler archipelago. This is the place for memorable experiences in the heart of Hvaler.
We have chosen to live a sustainable life at the cabin and collect rainwater in two large tanks, we have water on the wall by the kitchen, water in the tap in the bathroom and a magical delicious outdoor shower with cold and hot water. We wash dishes to the sound of birds chirping and do laundry by hand. We have a combustion toilet in the bathroom. We are very happy with this simple and slow everyday life in step with the rhythms of nature at our cabin.
