The CT MiniPOD Outdoor Sauna delivers compact comfort and efficient heat circulation in a modern, space-saving footprint. Handcrafted in Canada from tight-knot Eastern White Cedar, this premium backyard sauna features the signature rounded MiniPOD body for fast, even heating, a black asphalt shingle roof for four-season protection, and a full tempered-glass door that brightens the interior with natural light.
Thoughtfully sized for patios, smaller backyards, and garden hideaways, it comfortably seats 3–4 adults upright or 2 reclining, making it a strong fit for couples and small families. The cedar interior is naturally aromatic, low-maintenance, and designed for outdoor longevity, while the curved profile helps promote efficient airflow, reliable heat retention, and shorter preheat times. If you want a compact outdoor sauna that combines Canadian craftsmanship, energy-conscious performance, and year-round reliability, the CT MiniPOD is an elegant option for your home wellness retreat.
