The main building houses a spacious seminar hall with capacity for around 40 people. The room features flexible table arrangements and a large display screen, making it well suited for a variety of setups and events, including remote and hybrid meetings and events. The seminar hall is also equipped with a portable sound system, a shared computer, and both a flipchart and a blackboard. For larger events, the station's dining hall can be converted into a lecture hall for around 70 people. All furniture and equipment available in the seminar room can be moved to the dining hall.
The lakeside sauna's common room can be used for small-scale events or evening gatherings. The room includes a small kitchen, a table and chairs, and a sitting area with a sofa and a fireplace.
Right next to the station stands a cosy hut with a fireplace and a griddle pan, named Liekkihotelli Sepe.
Between the common areas and the residential wing lies a bright gallery hallway, which can be used for art exhibitions or other displays requiring hanging space.
