About this property

Private straw clay sauna house on organic farm

Get away from life's stressors by indulging in your own private sauna suite. King-size bed, rudimentary kitchen, bathroom, japanese soaking tub (for cold soak), AND a wood-fired sauna, you're sure to find relaxation. Without tech distractions you'll enjoy your stay with board games, reading, napping, strolling the property of our organic farm. 10 mins from Mount Horeb w/ cute, local shops and restaurants as well as several state/county parks. Perfect blend of rural escape + nearby conveniences!
The space
A cozy, private sauna suite with king-size bed, dining area, kichenette, half bath, Japanese soaking tub, and wood-fired SAUNA. The Japanese soaking tub is a little challenging to get into and out of with fairly steep steps, so please use the hand rails and use caution! *please note the tub is for a cold soak not a hot soak

This straw-clay "cabin" is sort of set up like a studio with an open floor plan. It's ideal for couples looking to get away and stoke the fire of their relationship, but if three close freinds want an affordable escape, there is plenty of room!

We recently bought this farm (November 2021) and this building was already here. It was originally built for a prior owner to practice her massage therapy business out of. It is timber frame construction with straw-clay insulation and natural material walls. It was built to be environmentally-friendly!

This is a "rustic" stay. Wifi is hit or miss out here, it does not have a full kitchen or full "traditional" bathroom (but does have all the features of a full bathroom). It's also extremely charming and cozy. We welcome you to use the wood-fired sauna and soaking tub to relax. *Please read the woodstove manual before operating and starting a fire!*

We have one middle-aged friendly, free-roaming dog and one dog-like cat.
Guest access
When guests arrive, they can pull up near our house (red siding with white trim) to unload anything they need out of their car. This is the closest walk from parking spot to sauna house. They will follow a small foot path next to our house, around the side of the sauna house to the front step.

Once they finish unloading, they can park their car by our big barn. To get there, they will loop around our driveway and take a hard right to follow the access road to the barn. The parking spot is off the the right, just to the north of the barn. A wooden fence marks the spot.

Guests will walk the grassy path through some pine trees back to the sauna house.
Other things to note
We run a small, organic farm. Depending on what time of year you visit, we will have our fields in production growing an assortment of produce, chickens for meat and eggs, pigs helping us work our fields, and cows helping us mow. Guests are welcome to walk our property (it is fenced all the way around) and look at our fields. Animals will mostly be fenced with electricity, so keep your hands to yourselves! If you bring a dog, please keep them leashed at all times.

If you have any interest in jumping in and seeing what a day on the farm is like, we would be happy to accommodate you as best we can. Please send us a message including this detail!

What an amazing little property! The cabin is cozy, cute, and after staying in one with a wood-fire stove sauna and soaking tub I don't want to stay in a place that does NOT have those amenities. Beautiful countryside and short drives to towns, hiking, and other interests in area.
