    FAQs

    Yes! Kids over the age of 6 are welcome at Sauna Camp. Sometimes children under 12 are not big fans of the very hot temperatures that are standard for our public saunas. For these groups, we recommend the private sauna experience instead so you can request a milder temperature in your sauna.

    Danny and Sophie have built something genuinely special here. The vibe is warm, communal, and grounded in nature, with guests consistently raving about the sense of connection and the peaceful lakeside setting. The saunas are clean, hot, and well-maintained, and staff like Michael and Katie get called out by name for their attentiveness and genuine care. Season pass holders and first-timers alike tend to leave planning their next visit. A few practical things worth knowing before you go: the parking lot is about a quarter mile from the camp, and the bathrooms are back near the lot rather than at the sauna site itself. The staff does mention this upfront, but it's easy to forget on arrival. These are minor logistics, not dealbreakers, and most guests shrug them off entirely once they're settled in by the fire. Private bookings and group retreats are available, and reviews suggest the experience translates well across different group sizes and occasions. Cold plunging in the lake is part of the draw, though you can wade in gradually if a full plunge feels like too much. For anyone looking for a restorative outdoor experience that leans into Minnesota winters rather than hiding from them, this one consistently delivers.
