SOMi Sauna Book a seat

Private rentals · Southeast Michigan

The sauna
comes to you

We tow it to you, level it and get the stove going, so it is up to temperature by the time your session starts. A hand-built cedar room for ten, two tiers of benching and a stove full of stones, in your own back yard or wherever you are gathering.

Half day $425 Full day $650 Weekend $1,250 20 miles included

What it looks like

Cedar, fire and
somewhere to cool off

The trailer turns up with a stack of split hardwood and everything else it needs. All you have to supply is a reasonably level spot to park it. There is nothing to plug in, because the lighting runs off its own battery.

The gatherings

Where we end up

Some of these are a back yard and six friends. Some are three hundred people at a festival. The sauna does not mind either way.

At homeBackyards, driveways, birthdays, a Saturday with friends and nowhere to be.
Lake houses & cabinsPrivate inland lakes with beach access are the ideal setup. Heat, then straight in.
Retreats & wellnessYoga weekends, wellness retreats and venues that already run restorative programming.
Festivals & public eventsSeasonal festivals, parks and nature centres with outdoor programming.
Companies & teamsAway days and staff events. The hot room is a genuinely good leveller.
Schools & communitiesUniversities, outdoor and winter sports groups, senior and retiree communities.
