Your Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Evening
There is no assigned rotation and no required order. Settle into the fireside lounge and move through the evening in your own rhythm.
Warm fire. Brave water. Real connection.
The bonfire and couch lounge create a warm home base beside the wood-fired sauna and cold plunge—a place to eat, sip tea, tell stories, warm your hands and happy toes, and return between adventures.
A threshold walk through the longest nights
Winter Solstice Mandala Labyrinth
Our handmade, walkable Solstice labyrinth offers a winding path for reflection, release, intention, and return. Enter when the moment feels right. Move slowly, listen inward, and let the path hold the transition from the darkest season toward returning light.
Release + call forward
A Two-Part Solstice Intention Ritual
What are you ready to let go?
Write what you are releasing on a burn-safe slip, take a pinch from the bowl of herbs, and offer both to the mature Yule fire.
What are you calling forth?
Create a second written intention for what you are welcoming into the season ahead. This piece stays with you—a small Winter Promise to carry home and return to as the light grows.
Heat · cold · breath · courage
Wood-Fired Sauna + Cold Water
Sauna
The sauna seats eight adults comfortably. Sessions are capped at 20 minutes, with most guests choosing 10–15 minutes before their next transition.
Cold-Plunge Tubs
The cold-plunge area seats eight adults comfortably. Most guests stay in for approximately 30 seconds to one minute, always following their own body and boundaries.
Pond Plunge
Guests who feel called may take the polar-bear plunge in the pond. The cold-plunge tubs remain available for anyone who prefers them.
Because this is an evening gathering, guests practicing contrast therapy are encouraged to finish their final round with heat. Cold exposure is always optional.
8:28 PM · beneath the moon
Dark Water commUnity Plunge
Do you have the courage to join us at 8:28 p.m. for a Dark Water commUnity plunge at the Full Cold Supermoon’s peak?
Gather at the water for one intentional shared moment beneath the moon. Participation is invited, never required; witnessing and holding warmth for the plungers is part of the commUnity, too.
Warm · seasonal · made with care

Every ticket includes warm seasonal food bites designed for a winter evening outdoors. The final menu and dietary details will be shared before tickets open.
