The Sasquatch Escapes Sauna Initiative: Why Every Cabin Will Have a Sauna by 2026
The Sasquatch Sauna Initiative: Why Every Cabin Will Have a Sauna by 2026
At Sasquatch Escapes, our mission has always been about more than just a place to stay. We believe in creating immersive, rejuvenating experiences rooted in nature, comfort, and well-being. That’s why we’re thrilled to share our goal: by 2026, every one of our Sasquatch-themed cabin properties will feature a private, premium sauna experience. So far, the Hideaway and the Sanctuary have luxury barrel saunas!
Why Saunas?
Saunas have been a part of human wellness for thousands of years, and for good reason. From the Finnish tundra to North American forest retreats, the simple act of sweating it out in a quiet, heated space offers tremendous physical and emotional benefits. Science supports what generations have already known:
Improved Circulation: The heat of a sauna increases blood flow and heart rate, similar to moderate exercise.
Muscle Recovery: Whether you’re hiking Northwoods trails or just need a reset, sauna heat helps ease tension and accelerate muscle recovery.
Detoxification: Sweating promotes the release of toxins through the skin, supporting the body’s natural detox process.
Stress Relief: Time spent in a sauna lowers cortisol levels and promotes relaxation, clarity, and better sleep.
Boosted Immunity: Regular sauna use has been linked to stronger immune responses and reduced incidence of colds and flu.
Why We’re Committed to This Vision
Our guests come to Sasquatch Escapes for quiet, comfort, and a return to the natural world. We believe that wellness should be a part of that escape. Installing saunas at each property is our way of elevating the experience—offering not just warmth after a winter hike, but a ritual of restoration that can improve both body and mind.
We also view saunas as an essential element of the “off-grid luxury” we strive to provide. They’re a powerful amenity that complements the peace of the forest, the stillness of the lake, and the glow of a campfire. It’s about building spaces that nourish, not just shelter.
What to Expect
By 2026, all Sasquatch Escapes cabins will include either electric barrel saunas or enclosed infrared saunas—each designed to be both aesthetically integrated and guest-friendly. Most will be located steps from the cabin door, near fire pits or tucked among the trees for privacy. Whether you’re visiting in snowy January or crisp October, your sauna will be ready and waiting.
This initiative is a promise to you—our guests—that your stay won’t just be a getaway. It will be a reset.
