Heartfire Saunas
About this Sanctuary
Nestled in the heart of Ann Arbor, Heartfire Saunas offers an unparalleled experience for those seeking a unique and rejuvenating staycation or event. Founded by Forrest Hejkal, an avid sauna enthusiast who has crafted seven custom builds since 2018, this mobile rental and custom build service ensures that every visit is a memorable one. The 1968 Travelaire camper trailer, now meticulously transformed into a luxurious private sauna space, boasts a cozy interior heated by a wood stove, with battery-powered lighting to create an off-grid experience. The sauna comfortably fits up to eight people, providing ample space for friends or intimate gatherings. Guests have praised the sauna's magical ambiance and its ability to cleanse and refresh, making it perfect for both solo reflection and social bonding. Notable features include the eucalyptus scent during steam sessions and the available cold plunge tub that adds a true sensory experience.
