Our Saunas

Indoor Finnish Sauna - The Flagship

Temperature: 210°F at the top bench | Capacity: 10 people | Heater: Electric Homecraft

Built to authentic Finnish standards - 9-foot ceiling, overpowered heater maintaining consistent 210°F, excellent ventilation so you can steam all day without losing temperature. This is the real deal. International visitors have called it the best sauna experience in the US.

Outdoor Wood-Burning Sauna

Temperature: 190-230°F near heater, 160-190°F by door | Capacity: 10 people | Fuel: Wood-fired

Pentagonal design with a real wood-burning stove. The temperature gradient means you pick your intensity - sit near the heater for full blast or by the door for a gentler session. Visible from the street, it's also how most people find us.

Two Private Finnleo Saunas

Temperature: 165-195°F | Capacity: 2 people each | Model: Finnleo Hallmark 44

Two compact, high-quality saunas perfect for a solo session or an intimate sweat with a friend. Lower temperature than the main saunas - ideal if you're building up or prefer a gentler heat.

What To Expect

What to Expect

Grab a towel, pick your sauna, and settle in. Most people do 15-20 minute rounds, stepping out to cool off between sessions - whether that's a cold plunge, a lap around the outdoor area, or a drink at the bar. There's no right way to do it. Sit, sweat, chat, repeat.
