About
A floating cedar sauna moored at Elevated Tides Marina on the Columbia River in north Portland. A deck for lounging, and a cold plunge straight into the water. Sessions run just under two hours, either shared with other guests or booked privately for a group of up to ten.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- On a river: the cold side of the cycle comes from open running water rather than a tub.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Bookable as a private session: rent the room for your group rather than sharing with strangers.
- Urban venue: it sits inside the city rather than at a coast or lake. A session fits into a day in town.
- Swimwear sauna: some or all sessions are taken in swimwear, so pack it.
