Wood-fired sauna in the Methow Valley

Coming soon to Mtn. Annex

The Hot Room

Inside, a traditional Finnish wood-fired stove stacked with 800 pounds of stone anchors the room. The fire radiates a steady heat, inviting you to stretch out across the benches.

When water meets the rocks, it releases a rolling löyly. A rich steam fills the space and awakens the senses. Step just outside to reset with a cold bucket dump under the open sky.

It is a slow, powerful experience where the crackle of the fire and the view of the valley come together for the perfect sweat.

Heat. Steam. Stillness.

A wood-fired sauna experience in the Methow Valley — built for slow heat, cold resets, and good company.
