Sauna Accessories
Barrel saunas bring authentic Finnish relaxation to your backyard with a design that’s as smart as it is striking. The curved walls don’t just look good—they help heat your space faster and more evenly than traditional square models. Built with beautiful western red cedar and sized for 2 to 8 people, these saunas are ideal for cozy solo sessions, romantic date nights, or group unwinds with friends and family. With your choice of wood-burning or electric heat, each handcrafted sauna delivers that classic steam experience in a shape that just works.
Why Barrel Saunas Work Well for Your Backyard
The Smart Shape That Changes Everything
That curved design isn’t just for aesthetics. Unlike square saunas that trap cold air in the corners, barrel saunas promote natural airflow that distributes heat quickly and evenly. You get faster warm-ups, fewer cold spots, and more time soaking in the heat.
Prefer to keep the heat inside? Explore our indoor saunas for all-season relaxation that fits a spare room or home gym.
Naturally Strong, Beautiful Cedar
Every sauna in our collection is crafted from western red or Pacific cedar sourced from Canadian forests. Cedar is naturally resistant to moisture, decay, and insects—plus, it smells incredible when heated. Its natural oils even help regulate humidity, creating that clean, dry heat sauna lovers swear by.
If a timeless box design is more your style, our traditional saunas line offers the classic cabin look with either electric or wood-burning heaters.
Choose the Heat Source That Fits Your Routine
- Electric Heaters – Plug in and go. Easy, clean, and reliable. These systems heat quickly and maintain consistent temperatures with minimal effort. If you want modern convenience and precise control over your sauna session, then an electric sauna is the way to go. They're ideal for everyday use and integrate easily into most home electrical systems. Depending on the model, you may need a dedicated circuit—so it’s a good idea to consult a licensed electrician before installation.
- Wood-Burning Heaters – For that off-grid, fire-crackling sauna ritual. Wood-fired units offer a timeless experience, complete with the soothing crackle of flames and that classic steam when water hits the stones. They don’t require electricity, making them perfect for remote cabins, rustic retreats, or anyone who loves a more hands-on, natural approach.
