If you want to experience the deepest kind of relaxation, sit in a sauna for 10-15 minutes. The high heat will melt your stress away and leave you feeling more refreshed than ever.
Luckily, you don’t need to spend tons of money at a high-end spa to visit a sauna. There are quite a few cozy RV resorts with saunas included as one of the amenities. These are six of the popular resorts where you can park the RV and relax this season.
1. Sou’wester Lodge – Long Beach, Washington
For a quiet retreat on the Washington coast, stay in one of the rad vintage travel trailers at Sou’Wester Lodge in Seaview. All visitors are welcome to use their private Garden Spa, which includes a dry Finnish sauna made of quality western cedar & hand-milled Port Orford Cedar.
They also have RV and tent sites available, as well as cozy cabins to rent for the night. Inside their main lodge, a small general shop sells food, drinks, and other miscellaneous items. You can additionally purchase a variety of handmade goods from local artists in their small trailer on-site, named “Thrifty”.
Plus, the lodge is only minutes from the coastal beach and fabulous attractions on the Long Beach Peninsula. During your stay, take a short trip up the main road to see the quirky Marsh’s Free Museum, and grab a bite to eat from the Australian-themed bar & grill, Lost Roo.
