About
Rob Licht Custom Saunas specializes in authentic, high-temperature Finnish-style saunas. Guests consistently report achieving intense, comfortable heat, with saunas reaching 200°F through expert ventilation design. The focus is on traditional wood-burning and electric saunas, as well as mobile units, all built with meticulous craftsmanship that prioritizes a genuine, hot sauna experience over infrared or dry alternatives. The saunas are designed for both heat therapy and relaxation, with thoughtful details like movable lower benches for easy cleaning. This spa offers custom design and consultation, creating one-of-a-kind saunas tailored to specific sites, including scenic locations with views.
Beyond building, the venue provides an immersive educational experience through multi-day Sauna Building Master Classes. Held in a spacious workshop in the scenic Ithaca area, these hands-on courses teach the principles of sauna construction, from wood selection to airflow. The classes are led by Rob, a knowledgeable and patient teacher with a deep artistic and practical background, and his partner Scarlet, who contributes expertise and warm hospitality. Participants appreciate the detailed plans, the lack of surprise costs, and the ongoing support for design adjustments. The experience often includes after-class sauna sessions in custom mobile units, sometimes taken to a nearby lake. The service is noted for handling logistical details like local code enforcement, making the process seamless for clients.
