THE CASTLE SAUNA

Wood-Fired. Cedar. Hot as Hell.

At CCC we were inspired by the sauna traditions of Finland, our custom wood-fired sauna was handmade right here in Seattle by some rad local artisans.

Built from an upcycled shipping container and finished wall-to-wall in cedar, it’s big, communal, simple, and gets seriously hot.

Come sweat, recover, meet some good people, hit the cold water, and repeat.

Why Wood-Fired?

Because it just feels better.

There’s something awesome about getting back in touch with fire, wood, water, and cold — even in the middle of the city.

And also: this thing cranks.
