Cottage saunas are made for the slow rhythm of a weekend property: light the stove, let it come up while you unpack, and settle into the ritual. They are usually wood-fired and characterful — log or timber-clad — with a covered porch or deck that turns the cool-down into a place to sit and talk.
Because cottage use is seasonal, the emphasis is on off-grid independence and a robust, low-fuss build rather than the tightest possible efficiency. That said, a properly insulated cottage sauna extends the season well into the cold, letting a summer place work as a winter one too.
