Product Description

MiniPOD Sauna. Looks like a cabin, works like a nervous system reset. Built to help you show up sharp.

The MiniPOD is a 7x7 sauna handcrafted in Canada from tight-knot Eastern White Cedar, smooth to the touch, aromatic in the heat, and naturally built to last. Side wall benches make smart use of space, giving you room for four upright or two lying down. A tempered glass door lets in natural light, while black asphalt shingles protect the curved roof from weather and wear.

Choose an electric heater for efficient daily use, or wood-burning if you prefer ritual over speed. Either way, this sauna is ready for regular work.

Inside, everything slows. The cedar warms. Breath steadies. It’s one of the few places left where your brain isn’t juggling inputs, meetings, and ChatGPT tabs. Just quiet heat and the rare feeling of being fully offline.

You’ve optimised everything else... Your calendar, your caffeine, your cold exposure. But recovery still slips through the cracks. The MiniPOD gives you a space to step out of performance mode without stepping away from your standards. It’s not a flex. It’s a fixture.

This isn’t a break. It’s part of the system... the part that brings back clarity, focus, and resilience on repeat. The kind of routine that stacks quietly behind your best workdays.

And yes, the science backs it:

  • Sauna use increases BDNF, a brain protein tied to learning, memory, and mental sharpness
  • Heat exposure activates the parasympathetic system, easing stress and improving cognitive control
  • Helps regulate sleep, reduce inflammation, and improve cardiovascular performance
  • Four sessions a week may reduce all-cause mortality by up to 40%, according to long-term studies

It’s not just heat. It’s a habit you'll actually keep. It's for people who value long-term gains over short-term savings.

Choose your heater and build recovery into your daily rhythm.

Scientific Evidence

Thousands of studies support what high performers already know: sauna isn’t a luxury, it’s a system-level tool for sharper thinking, faster recovery, and long-term performance.

Regular sauna sessions (15–30 minutes, 3–5 times per week) have been shown in peer-reviewed research to reduce stress, improve sleep, speed up physical recovery, and support brain health and longevity.

Here’s what the science supports:

  • Heat exposure activates the parasympathetic nervous system — helping you slow down, release tension, and recover from high-stress days.
  • By quieting the brain’s default-mode activity, sauna creates the conditions for sharper thinking, clearer ideas, and post-session flow states.
  • In a world of constant input, the sauna offers rare cognitive stillness — restoring your focus, discipline, and decision-making capacity.
  • Sauna helps reset your reward system, calming dopamine spikes so you feel more focused and motivated — without the crash.
  • Studies from the University of Eastern Finland show regular sauna use is linked to reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and up to 40% lower all-cause mortality (JAMA Internal Medicine).


This isn’t just about how you feel tomorrow, it’s about how you perform a decade from now.

Sauna isn't self-care. It's strategy. It's how high performers recover, think, and stay sharp for the long game.

Striking Cabin Profile with Sloped Roof

The Mini POD stands apart with its angled, architectural silhouette. More than good looks, the vertical walls and sloped roof create usable space where it matters, especially when you're seated upright or lying back in full reset mode.

Wall-to-Wall Benches for Sitting or Stretching

Two solid side benches give you flexibility to sit tall or lie fully flat. Comfortably fits up to four people seated, or two lying down, ideal for solo rituals or shared silence.

Crafted from Select Knot Eastern White Cedar

Handbuilt in Canada using tight-knot cedar that's 1.5" thick and naturally rot-resistant. Smooth, pale, and aromatic — it smells like intention and ages with character.

Tempered Glass Door and Asphalt-Protected Exterior

The large glass window gives the interior a light, open feel without compromising privacy. The exterior walls are finished with black asphalt shingles, a practical, low-maintenance detail that keeps the heat in and the forecast out.

Built for Routine, Not Occasion

The MiniPOD isn’t a once-a-week luxury. It’s compact, reliable, and consistent. a physical space to clear your head, recover fast, and get back to what matters. Think of it as a daily edge, not a special event.

Frequently Asked Questions

All Dundalk saunas are proudly built in Ontario, Canada by a team of skilled craftspeople. Every piece is made to order with locally sourced materials, no off-the-shelf shortcuts.

You have two options:

- Harvia electric heaters (made in Finland) for fast, reliable heat

- Wood-burning stoves for a traditional, off-grid experience
Both deliver the deep, even warmth you’re after, it just depends on your lifestyle and setup.

The length of time that it takes to heat up depends on the model, but most of our saunas hit 75°C in under 30 minutes even in winter. The point is: they’re fast enough that you’ll actually use them on a Tuesday, not just a Sunday.

Yes, and yes. Even in -20°C (or colder), these saunas regularly reach 167–194°F. Add a splash of water or ice to the rocks for a rich burst of steam. Whether it’s a winter night or a rainy morning, it’s built to perform.

Yes — we offer free curbside delivery. If you're in Hawaii or Alaska, we’ll send a custom freight quote. No hidden fees, no surprises.

It arrives flat-packed on a pallet, ready for self-assembly. If your crate is over 92 inches long, a liftgate won’t be available so you’ll need a plan to unload (most use a forklift). We’ll help you figure it out if you're unsure.

Yes, most of our customers do. It takes about 4 to 6 hours with basic tools and a second set of hands. If that’s not your thing, we’re happy to recommend qualified installers in your area. Either way, we’ve got your back.

Just a flat, level surface. Gravel, concrete, patio pavers, or a solid deck all work great. No complicated setup. No overthinking.

We get it — sometimes plans change. Because each sauna is built to order, all sales are final. That said, you’re covered by a 5-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty, and if something’s wrong or damaged, we’ll make it right. You won’t be left in the dark.

It’s rare, but it can happen. If the crate looks damaged on arrival, note it on the delivery form and take a few clear photos. Then get in touch with us. We’ll step in, contact the shipper, and work with you to sort it quickly and fairly.

If your order hasn’t shipped yet, we can usually make changes. Within the first 14 days, updates are free. After that, a small fee may apply. Once your sauna is close to shipping, changes aren’t possible — so let us know early and we’ll take care of it.

Your sauna is protected by a 5-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty that covers materials and workmanship under normal residential use. Heaters are covered separately by their own manufacturers. If anything’s unclear, we’ll walk you through it.

We know things get busy. If you’re unable to accept delivery, the freight company may charge a daily storage fee. We’ll send tracking ahead of time so you can plan for arrival, and we’re happy to coordinate the timing with you if needed.

No plumbing needed — saunas are dry heat units. For electric models, you’ll need a licensed electrician to safely wire the heater. If you’re off-grid or just prefer fire, go for a wood-burning stove and skip the plug altogether.

That depends on the model. Some seat two comfortably, others fit up to six. We list sizing clearly on every product page and if you’re unsure, just ask. We’ll help you find the right fit for your space and routine.

Not much. Just sweep or vacuum the inside regularly, and wipe the benches with warm soapy water a few times a year. For stubborn marks, a bit of fine sandpaper does the trick.

The exterior cedar will naturally weather to a soft grey over time, which won’t affect performance. If you want to keep the original colour, there’s a sauna-safe stain for that too.

Some minor water seepage is normal in outdoor saunas, the wood is porous by nature but once it heats up, the moisture evaporates. Nothing to worry about, and easy to sand if needed.

Basically, treat it well and it’ll keep showing up for years. Like any good habit.

With spa or gym saunas, you're paying per session, plus the drive, the scheduling, and the friction that stops you going as often as you'd like. A home sauna takes all of that out. It's ready when you are, which means more consistent use and a much lower cost-per-session over time.

But it’s not just financial ROI. This is an investment in your future output, sharper thinking, better sleep, faster recovery, and the kind of long-term resilience that lets you hike Kilimanjaro at 80 if that’s your thing. Or at the very least, get on the floor with your grandkids without worrying about snapping a hip.

Dundalk LeisureCraft is a family-owned Canadian company that’s been handcrafting saunas, hot tubs, and outdoor wellness products for over 15 years. Based in Ontario, they’re known for their commitment to sustainable materials, timeless design, and exceptional build quality. Every sauna is made to order by skilled craftspeople using locally sourced materials.
