FAQ

Why call when you can easily find the answer here.

Below you will find a list of the most common questions we receive. Quick for you and quick for us 🙂

Cabins and suites

Cabins and Suites
Tent, Motorhome and Caravan

Yes, in all cabins except our Suites. However, they are not allowed to climb on furniture and beds. We recommend giving them a little pep talk before the trip.

No, unfortunately, we do not allow sleeping bags to keep pests away. After all, we have a reputation to maintain as a pest-free destination!

Yes, for an additional fee, this can be ordered for all our cabins—either as ready-to-use bedding or fully made-up beds. In the suites, made-up beds are included. That means less work for you!

We always have the best price in our own online booking channel. You can find it here. Why pay more when you can pay less?

All accommodations have their own parking right outside the unit. No need to drag your suitcase for miles.

For all guests the playground, water slide, use of SUP and kayak in the swimming pond are included. Everything you need to keep the kids (and yourself) busy.

Bicycle rental, kayak/SUP/canoe in Jølstravatnet, firewood (except for the suites where it is included), breakfast and sauna are extra. Because some things in life actually cost money.

The reception is currently located at YX Jølstraholmen. A new reception and welcome center will be ready in 2025. Yes, we are a bit nomadic at the moment.

Then call us as soon as possible and we will find a solution. We like to think that we are pretty good problem solvers.

Cancellations can be made online for free up to 14 days before arrival. If you’re unable to do so, send us an email at booking@jolstraholmen.no and we’ll take care of it for you. If it’s past the 14-day window, most guests have travel insurance that covers any reasons preventing them from coming.

Send us an email at booking@jolstraholmen.no and we will contact the cleaning staff if it has been found. We can send items by post, but then the recipient must cover shipping and an administration fee of 89 NOK. Don't worry, we will take good care of your remains.

Check-in is between 15:00 and 22:00, and check-out is before 11:00. If practical, you can request early check-in or late check-out for an additional fee-because no one likes to stress about time!

It is possible, but a request must be sent by email well in advance, and there will be a fee for administration and any pickup of goods. Individual packages may include special services, in which case it is covered. We're ready to celebrate!

Not for use inside the cabins. Perfume can be applied in the bathroom, and the rest should be done outside. Please be considerate of the guests coming after you, as they may have different preferences when it comes to scents.

Put everything back in its place before departure. The cleaning staff already have plenty to do without having to play detective to find what belongs in the cabins.

Yes, you can, but make sure your pet is on a leash and pick up any “gifts” it leaves behind.

Our prices include electricity for campers and caravans. If you need your own electricity for your tent, it will be an additional charge.

No, this is included. We like to keep things simple.

For campers and caravans there is a CEE socket. If you need a CEE to chuko (regular plug), we sell this at reception. Power to the people!

Send us an email with your wishes, and we will get back to you with any capacity and available spaces. We are here for you all year round!

Wifi is included and is mostly available throughout the place.

The reception is currently located at YX Jølstraholmen. A new reception and welcome center will be ready in 2025. Yes, we are a bit nomadic at the moment.

Yes, you can do that through our booking pages.

Water slide

Free for overnight guests

Swimming pool or beach? A stroll in Lake Jølstravatnet or a dip in the river? Relaxed beach life or a speed record on the water slide? Swimming is a holiday pleasure at Jølstraholmen. We offer a varied swimming menu!

At Jølstraholmen you will find a nice swimming hole with its own sandy beach, perfect for little guests and beach play with a bucket and spade.

Older children are welcome to borrow SUP boards and small kayaks at the pond. Over at the playground, our famous water slide awaits the most speed-loving. Just five kilometers north along Jølstravatnet lies the beautiful nature meeting place at Svidalsneset. Here there are several beaches and ponds, prepared fishing spots, a sand volleyball court and a gazebo with a fire pit. Two kilometers away you will also find the diving board at Vassenden.

The waterslide is a part of the campground’s heritage. For over forty years, joyful screams from the slide have mixed with the birdsong along the riverbank, creating a delightful symphony for our guests. Speed and fun never seem to go out of style. Every summer, playful parents and children of all ages rush up the stairs, eager for another turn—and then one more—on the beloved slide.

The trick to reaching top speed? We’ll let you in on the secret: tuck your swim trunks in, press your shoulder blades down against the slide, and you’ll race down at an impressive speed! This fun waterslide is open all summer and free to use for all guests staying at Jølstraholmen.
