The Kaskinen doesn't ask you to choose. Golden Designs' GDI-8526-01 is a 6-person barn-style hybrid outdoor sauna built from all-natural Canadian Red Cedar — run it as a full spectrum infrared cabin or fire the traditional stove for deep, enveloping dry heat. With 15 IR emitters, a generous interior, and a barn silhouette that commands the backyard, the Kaskinen is the most versatile sauna in the lineup.
Design & Craftsmanship
Constructed with an all-weather exterior and an all-natural Canadian Red Cedar interior, the Kaskinen is built to live outdoors year-round. The barn-roof profile — with its characteristic overhang — gives it an architectural presence that stands apart from standard flat-roof designs. A clear tempered glass door opens the cabin to the outdoors, while an illuminated interior backrest adds a considered finishing detail.
