Traditional wood-fired Finnish lakeside sauna for rent

Do you want to enjoy the gentle warm steam in the traditional Finnish wooden sauna?

Our atmospheric wood-heated sauna guarantees a relaxing steam bath and a unique sauna experience. Our wooden sauna is located in its own peace on the edge of our resort on the shores of Lake Korpijärvi.

The sauna can be rented by tourists staying in our resort, as well as families, groups of friends, companies and associations from Mäntyharju and the surrounding area.

Enjoying a traditional Finnish sauna experience in natural light

The sauna has a steam room, a dressing room and a terrace. There is no electricity in the sauna, and there is only atmospheric natural light in the sauna.

There is no separate shower, but the washing water is carried from the lake in the traditional Finnish way to the water tank next to the sauna stove to warm it up, and the washing takes place in the sauna room.

When you book a sauna, you can also swim in the clear waters of Lake Korpijärvi and enjoy refreshments on the sauna terrace. You can buy refreshments from our restaurant.

Swimming in the winter

In winter, if the ice situation allows, there is also the possibility of swimming when booking a sauna (the swimming place may also be near the lakeside sauna).

Clean and clear bathing waters and a child-friendly sandy beach

In front of the sauna there is a shallow child-friendly sandy beach and a pier, so the sauna is also suitable for families with children.

Swimming toys are reserved for children on the lakeside sauna terrace. If they are borrowed, they must be returned to the lakeside sauna terrace after the sauna.

Lean-to next to the sauna

The rental price of the wood-fired sauna also includes the right to use the lean-to (shed) next to the sauna during the sauna shift. So you can have a barbecue at the same time.

Barbecue and cooking facilities can be borrowed free of charge from the restaurant.

The sauna can be booked from morning to night. You can even enjoy a night swim in the moonlight and bathe in the sauna at the same time. The seeker of the genuine sauna experience therefore reserves the sauna after sunset, when the sauna has only atmospheric dim natural light.

If you want to enjoy a sauna in peace and have a barbecue in the lean-to (shed) next to it, we recommend making a reservation for two hours.

The booking time includes time spent dressing.

The sauna is booked during the summer season in our summer restaurant. In the winter season, the sauna can be booked by contacting our staff.

Heat the sauna yourself or enjoy the pre-heated sauna

The sauna can be rented either pre-heated or you can heat the sauna by yourself.

If you heat the sauna yourself, the booking time is at least 1.5 hours, in which case the booking is always the first of the day.

In this case, the sauna must first be heated (the logs for sauna stove can be found on site) and washing water must be carried from the lake to the sauna.

There is about 1 hour of time for the sauna itself.

When the sauna shift ends, it must be ensured that the sauna is still warm and the water tank is full for the following guests.

The booking time for guests following this is at least 1 hour, at which time guests no longer need to heat the sauna from the beginning, but they must ensure that the sauna stays warm at all times by adding logs to the sauna stove during the sauna as needed. Even then, make sure that the water tank is full for the following customers.
