A Spacious Portable Sauna Designed for Group Wellness

Create an impressive outdoor sauna environment for family, friends, retreats, events, and larger gatherings with the North Shore Sauna Dome Sauna Tent, available through Wellness Edge Frontier.

Designed for 8+ people, the Dome is North Shore Sauna's largest portable sauna tent in its current lineup. Its distinctive 9.5-foot diameter dome-style layout and approximately 6.5-foot center height provide a spacious communal environment with room for multiple benches, standing space, and group sauna sessions.

The Dome is designed around a wood-fired heating system and can reach approximately 200°F+, with current manufacturer specifications indicating a typical heat-up time of approximately 30–45 minutes, depending on conditions and whether one or two stoves are used.

A standout feature of the Dome is its dual chimney-port design, allowing configurations with either one or two wood stoves. The two-stove configuration is intended for customers who want additional heating capability in demanding conditions or for larger group use.

At approximately 60 lbs in tent-only configuration, the Dome remains portable despite its significantly larger size. It is designed in Duluth, Minnesota, and can be packed into a portable carry bag for transportation to suitable outdoor locations.

At Wellness Edge Frontier, we carefully curate premium wellness products that combine practical functionality, flexible use, and thoughtful design for modern home and outdoor wellness spaces.

Why You'll Love It

Spacious 8+ Person Capacity

The Dome is designed to accommodate 8+ people, making it the ideal option for customers who want to host larger social sauna sessions rather than using a compact one- or two-person tent.

Generous 9.5-Foot Diameter

The Dome provides approximately 9.5 feet of diameter, creating a substantially larger interior than the Mini Cube, Nova 4, or Nova 6. The open geometric layout makes room for multiple benches and more flexible group seating arrangements.

6.5-Foot Center Height

With an approximately 6.5-foot center height, the Dome provides additional headroom compared with smaller portable sauna tents and creates a more open, immersive interior environment.

Wood-Fired Sauna Heating

The Dome uses wood-fired sauna stoves rather than electric infrared panels, allowing it to deliver the high-temperature sauna experience associated with traditional wood-fired sauna environments.

200°F+ Heat

North Shore Sauna lists the Dome as capable of reaching approximately 200°F+, depending on the selected stove configuration, weather, fire management, and setup conditions.

Dual-Stove Ready

The Dome features two chimney ports, allowing it to accommodate one or two wood stoves. Dual-stove operation can provide additional heating capability for larger groups or colder outdoor environments.

Large-Group Social Layout

The geometric floor plan creates a communal environment particularly suited to social sauna sessions, group gatherings, retreats, and outdoor wellness events.

Insulated 300D Oxford Fabric

The Dome uses North Shore Sauna's insulated 300D Oxford fabric construction, designed to retain heat while keeping the overall structure portable.

Portable Despite Its Size

Even with its 8+ person capacity, the tent-only configuration weighs approximately 60 lbs, allowing it to be transported to cabins, lakeside properties, campsites, rental properties, and other appropriate outdoor locations.

Removable Rain Cover

The Dome includes a removable rain cover, providing an additional weather-protection layer for outdoor use.

Multiple Package Levels

The Dome is available in several configurations, ranging from the Tent Only version to Starter, Pro, Premium, and Elite Experience packages. This allows customers to choose a basic shell, a complete stove package, additional seating and accessories, or a more comprehensive professionally supported experience.

Three 48-Inch Portable Benches

The Pro package adds three 48-inch portable sauna benches, creating a full seating array for the larger interior.

Premium Dual-Stove Configuration

The Premium package adds a second wood stove, bringing the total to two stoves, along with a bucket and ladle, thermometer/hygrometer, firewood carrying bag, and fireproof floor mat.

Designed for Your Wellness Edge Frontier Space

The Dome Sauna Tent is designed for customers who want a larger-scale sauna experience without the permanent construction associated with a traditional sauna cabin.

Its approximately 9.5-foot diameter provides room for larger groups, while the portable tent structure allows the sauna to be packed away and transported to different outdoor locations.

The Dome can work particularly well for a spacious backyard wellness retreat, cabin property, outdoor gathering area, wellness retreat, hospitality setting, or appropriately managed event environment.

Its dual chimney-port design also gives customers more flexibility than conventional single-stove portable sauna tents, especially when additional heating capacity is desired.

At Wellness Edge Frontier, we believe premium wellness equipment should adapt to the way you use your space—from private backyard relaxation to larger group experiences.

Installation & Setup

The Dome is designed as a portable tent rather than a permanent sauna structure, allowing it to be assembled and disassembled when needed.

The approximately 9.5-foot diameter means customers should select an installation area large enough to accommodate the full footprint while maintaining appropriate clearance around the wood stove and chimney system.

Because the Dome can accommodate one or two wood stoves, its installation requires careful planning for chimney routing, fire clearance, ventilation, and safe stove placement.

Professional setup is recommended for customers who select the Elite Experience package or who prefer guided installation.

Outdoor Installation Considerations

Before operating the Dome:

• Place the tent on a suitable, stable outdoor surface.
• Secure the structure with the provided stakes and ropes.
• Maintain required clearance around the wood stove or stoves.
• Ensure both chimney ports are correctly configured when using dual stoves.
• Keep combustible buildings, vegetation, furniture, and other materials away from stove and chimney heat.
• Provide appropriate ventilation.
• Use the supplied fireproof floor mat where applicable.
• Keep children and inexperienced users away from hot stove and chimney components.
• Operate the wood-burning system only where permitted.
• Follow all manufacturer instructions and applicable local fire-safety regulations.

The Dome should never be operated inside a conventional enclosed building where combustion gases and heat cannot be safely managed.

Portability & Storage

Although it is designed for 8+ people, the Dome remains portable.

The tent-only configuration weighs approximately 60 lbs, and the complete structure can be packed into a portable carry system for transportation.

This makes the Dome suitable for customers who want to move their sauna between a backyard, cabin, lake property, camping location, rental property, or other suitable outdoor destination.

Before storage, allow all stove and chimney components to cool completely, then clean and dry the tent and accessories before placing them into storage.
