Can I bring my own essential oil?

Unfortunately no,

with the water tank attached to the stove we are SCENT FREE 24/7 please don’t ask - scents stay much longer than we’d like & we are firm on this boundary. From those of us with super schnaz’s - thank you!

Can I bring my children?

please read CHILDREN FAQ

That said, children are always welcome on the bus (at your own discretion/liability) The SLOW STEAM design & requirement for participation is a safe experience for all ages & hopefully most health conditions (you know your body & what you can handle & are responsible to seek what your MD states about your involvement.) This is on you to inquire.

If you are booking for a special group/family experience & plan to have well behaved children join you, we encourage you to book the family sauna/hour

The Sauna has two doors to avoid a back log of sometimes forgetful humans who don’t know sauna etiquette leaving slowly causing heat loss.

Folks - please enter & exit “QUICK LIKE BUNNIES” - we’re here to sweat !

How hot does it get?

The typical Cool Bus temps range from 180 - 235 degrees farenheit & your time in the bus is yours to make it safe, for your experience! We love teaching the power of the CHICKEN BREAK to people of all ages & every person is encouraged to run into the river at least once to bring your core temperature down.

How do you operate same day bookings when you want to encourage impromptu FUN ?!

One the weekends we open up on the top of the hour every 3 hours IF YOU DON’T have a pre-paid experience, that of course guarantees your spot- Folks with more than 24 hour rentals can no show and others can still enjoy if the pre-paid party isn’t present at 15 minutes before the hour.

On the weekends between 7-9 AM, 10-noon, 1-3 PM, 4-6 PM, and 7 - 9 PM you can inquire at 7, 10, 1, 4 & 7 for your chances of booking to be increased! Call or text 541 788 0706 to inquire/book & your Sauna Concierge can be mindful not to keep stuffing wood if you prefer it a bit more mild temps for youth/elders/folks with compromised health - with the understanding that under 180 is highly unlikely unless you want us to open the doors. We do also have the power of the windows opening to cool things off but this is only done by the concierge. If your family is not here 20-30 minutes early to go through orientation/ sign waiver BY 15 minutes before the hour. we take new participants who are ready to be oriented & enter on the hour. Thank you for understanding that we do not carry over any family or pre-paid sessions to the next block of 3 hours, next day etc. If you are not present by 15 minutes before the session, you forfeit your session.

If you’ve read this far, you’ve likely realized texting or calling before you come down is a good idea to see if any private blocks have been booked for each 3 hour block of time! These blocks of good ol’ time are also open to programming fun as well such as silent sauna & sacred sauna depending on the wants/needs of who wants time on the BUS but specialty booked programming will be visual on our calendar once booked!

We give same day WEEKEND priority to who text inquires & confirms via Venmo payment at 7, 10, 1, 4, 7 PM. So technically all three hours could be blocked at the top of the 3 hour chunk & those who show up within the boundaries (above) gets in! When you venmo - you indicate your name, what you’re booking & TIME SLOT. VENMO PAYMENT IS ONLY FOR SAME DAY BOOKINGS PLEASE. If you are 24 hours ahead: please follow links to pay (& BE ON TIME!)

How much fun can we have with firm boundaries?

Between silly chicken hats, a hand held stop sign to help work Cool Bus “Crossing Lane” we’re sure to cook up a good time for anyone to come play! If you’re alive, you qualify. Come give your heart a secondary work-out after a nice river trail walk or run. Due to the nature of this play zone, we can’t guarantee you might not land on our or someone else’s social media/s, so if this is a deal breaker for you - please communicate to your sweat club! We respect your boundaries. Please let your concierge know your preferences. That said, with 4 people per sauna experience, we do our best but can’t control how others take shots outside the bus. No photography for any reason is allowed inside the sauna, plus your phone will temp out! We also do our best to encourage you to keep phones/valuables hidden (we do have 2 secret compartments) in the front & back rooms of the bus but they are not locked. The cubby in the front can only be accessed by the concierge & the cubby in the back is trust as you will.
