What the day feels like
What Two Nights Feels Like
Over a compact weekend, the cedar barrel arrives in the morning, is set up in your backyard, stoked with included firewood and warmed to a true wood‑heat temperature so you can move between hot steam and cool air. The structure comfortably accommodates groups, invites ritual use of the ladle and bucket, and leaves no hauling or chopping to the host—the operator handles delivery, setup and pickup so the weekend stays focused on relaxation rather than logistics.
