The Lost Faucet Sauna House

A sauna-centred spa in Courtenay with three saunas, an Aufguss ritual included in every session, and Eastern-European venik whisking on the Banya Experience.

The Lost Faucet sits on Cumberland Road just south of Courtenay and has been running as a sauna house since February 2020. The heart of it is a western cedar room with two large stoves and tiered benches; they say it runs 85-90°C, seats twelve or holds four to five lying down, and is built with a deep stove well so you can be generous with the water. Alongside it are an infrared heating room, a wet cool-down area, indoor rest lounges and an outdoor patio. Behind the main building is The Nook, a standalone outdoor sauna they added for people who want the simpler west-coast version: hot, cold, rest, and nobody else around.

Listed amenities: Cold plunge, Cold shower, Changing rooms, Lockers, Showers, Towel rental, Cool-down deck, Hosts events, Guided sauna rituals, Social sauna sessions.

Listing type: Public bathhouse. Access: Reservation. Listed capacity: The traditional sauna seats up to 12, or four to five lying down. The Nook is a smaller private sauna. Cold plunge: The standard cool-down without it is warm-to-cold rain showers, a wet area, and outdoor buckets of rainwater. Hours: Social Sauna public sessions run through the week, alongside Yoga + Sauna and private sessions booked at times of your choosing. Booking runs through their own Square storefront, for appointments, memberships, private Aufguss and yoga. Reservations are required for private sessions and recommended for Social Sauna, since the Aufguss is timed around the start times. Drop-ins are welcome at Social Sauna when there is room.
