Cedar Comforts

By Ken Gutmaker

A lower level Spa – Sauna combination has everything you need. In a well-organized footprint there is a bathroom (seen on the left) and a Spa Tub (on the right) and a Sauna (across from the Tub). All of the walls and ceiling are faced with Cedar siding, with no fasteners showing, creating a warm and fragrant oasis of calm. Radiant heat under the smooth concrete floor rounds out the picture.

The wood looks great, but I wonder about the costs of upkeep. Must be expensive.
