Question 1

How should I prepare for my visit?

Accepted Answer

Come hydrated after a light snack, arrive early to allow time for parking. Due to limited space in the sauna, please bring minimal possessions. Dress in a swimsuit, bring a large water bottle, beach footwear and a towel (we no longer provide towels).

You'll arrive to a pre-heated sauna with small changing room with fresh water for rinsing and access to private ponds for cold plunging. We'll share a brief orientation and be available on-site should you need anything.

Question 4

Can I leave a tip for my sauna host?

Accepted Answer

Our staff recently asked for a tip jar. The answer was obviously a yes.

But what they really want is a tip jar filled with money.

Each sauna now has a tip jar. We are in the service industry, and while not expected, tips are absolutely appreciated.

They do amazing work in extreme conditions to make sure your experience is excellent. Drop ‘em some cash if you want!
