A fairytale farmhouse: celebrate in Hemsedal’s “Dragestil” gem

We had our wedding at Huso Lodge from 1st to 3rd May 2026, and we really couldn't have been happier! The whole experience exceeded all expectations from start to finish.

The area is absolutely beautiful; quiet, scenic and perfect for such an occasion. We really appreciated the incredibly beautiful and suitable premises that could be used for the different parts of the celebration. This gave a nice variety throughout the weekend (and especially on the wedding day itself) and contributed to how complete and special everything felt.

The day before the actual wedding weekend started (Thursday), we already got a taste of what to expect when we celebrated my father's 60th birthday in the Guildhallen with 25 guests. Here we were served fantastic food and wine in a stately venue, and the hosts really showed how far they go to customize the experience and make sure everything is exactly how you want it. The menu was of course adapted so as not to overlap with the wedding menu. The birthday celebration set the tone perfectly for the rest of the weekend.

One of the main reasons we chose Huso Lodge was the desire for a warm, social and holistic wedding weekend, where guests could relax, get to know each other and really enjoy their time together. This was fulfilled to a great extent. The entire arrangement makes for great socializing, whether in the cabins, out in the hot tubs or in the pleasant common areas. The atmosphere throughout the weekend was relaxed, inclusive and incredibly nice, and we experienced that our guests really had time and space to get to know each other.

The food deserves a special mention – it was simply fantastic! It all becomes extra unique when Huso takes such great pride in using home-grown and local ingredients. Every single serving was an experience in itself, and our guests talked a lot about how incredibly good the food was.

What really made our stay complete was the hosts. They are professional, warm and incredibly solution-oriented, and ensured that everything ran seamlessly throughout the weekend. They really go the extra mile to ensure that the celebration is exactly how you want it! We were able to relax and enjoy every moment, knowing that everything was in the best hands. In addition, we noticed how much the people who work here are passionate about what they do. You really get the feeling that everyone at Huso has a genuine desire to make the experience as good and memorable as possible.

The accommodation, the atmosphere and the overall atmosphere were top notch. This is a place that truly makes for magical moments and memories for a lifetime.

We highly recommend Huso Lodge to anyone who wants a very special setting for a wedding or other small or large occasion. We will be looking for "excuses" to come back as soon as possible, whether it's a birthday or New Year's celebration. Thank you so much for making our weekend unforgettable!

Simply put – The best day of our lives – was had at Huso Lodge.

We couldn’t have asked for a more magical and hospitable location for our wedding. And what a dream wedding it was!

There was a lot of planning and emails back and forth, but Huso Lodge facilitated it for us – always with a smile.

The cabins for us and our wedding guests were all really beautiful and diverse in style, with lots of charm – some old fashioned and cozy – others with a more modern touch, but still cozy!

The location around Huso is absolutely spectacular, especially the lake where we had our ceremony, surrounded by beautiful trees, and with a slightly snowy mountain peak in the background.

The outdoor hot tubs and saunas around the lake, is like an outdoor spa, perfect to combine with a refreshingly ice cold swim in the lake. And then you fire up the fireplace in your cabin in the evening. So cozy!

The Chieftains Hall was so atmospheric and old norse, providing a feeling of how the vikings must have had their feasts. The Barn was romantic and old fashioned, perfect for a wedding dinner. The Earth Dome was fun and had very easy to use audio and light system, and the Banquet Hall gave you the perfect rustique vibe for goodbyes to friends and family on Sunday.

The staff and owners were so helpful and warm, and helped us with everything we requested. They gave us the extra attention to detail so that you feel really appreciated and taken care of. And this care and attentiveness – is genuine! They all really want you to have the best time possible! It’s obvious to us that they are not doing this only as a business, but because they enjoy it, because they are good humans, and because they genuinely care.

Things we didn’t have time to do ourselves, like decorating the milk jars outside the Barn, they fixed for us, without any extra cost and on their own initiative. They (Konstanze) brought the brides maids bouquets to our ceremony location for us when we didn't have time to do it ourselves. They (Caspar) helped us decorate the Barn with drapes high up in the ceiling. They went above and beyond for us – to make it a memory for life – and give us the best start possible, for our lives together as husband and wife.

The food was absolutely delicious. From Friday to Sunday, the extra attention to detail came through and the lengthy, but entertaining stories from the chef himself were provided. Like the story of how they slaughtered a huge pig for our Friday dinner, that they were emotionally attached to.

Read my other reviews. I’m usually strict. I have nothing but positive things to say about Huso. Well, ok, maybe some minor things like one fireplace being out of order, and one sauna not fired up at the agreed time, but that’s more or less it. I even wish I could add something negative to add to the credibility of this review, but even that is hard to do!

Yes, it was expensive, but they were generous and fair with us. And very flexible.

We humbly extend our sincere thanks to Bjørn, Danae and all the staff at Huso. We will be back for more lifelong memories with friends soon, and wish you the very best in the times ahead. You deserve it!

Thanks for everything,

Best regards,

Bård & Shohreh

Thank you so much for hosting our amazing September wedding at Huso Lodge. It was simply a magical weekend, we loved the area and the staff was so welcoming and wonderful. Our guests are still talking about the weekend, the location and the amazing local food we were served both at the Friday welcome dinner in the Chieftains Hall and as the wedding dinner in the Banquet Hall. We would definitely recommend Huso Logde for anyone looking for a mountain wedding.
