the story.
You’ve seen the storage container–converted living space all over the web — seems like a decent concept, right? We’ve thought so too…for a long time. From permitting to building to designing, it has been one heck-of-a journey (harder than a game of tetris), and we are so excited for it to finally be enjoyed by you.
Our space is curated into what, we think, makes for an opulent stay. We kept the good parts of sleeping in the middle of the woods and simply added a few key ingredients — think chilled bottle of champagne and a down comforter to accompany.
the sauna.
In our opinion, the epitome of a relaxing evening can only be found in one place: a sauna. Which means leaving a sauna out of our 480-square-foot unit was not an option.
Our state-of-the-art Nordic sauna is lined with cedar, has a Wi-Fi enabled IKI stove (let us know when you’re arriving and we’ll have it hot when you get here), and a window overlooking an expansive wilderness view. Enjoy our luxurious shower and patio cold plunge in-between to maximize the experience.
the point.
Sölveig Stay isn’t simply a box to sleep in — it was designed to heighten your senses and experience the outdoors in a new flavor.
It wouldn't be a true North experience without your own private cedar sauna — electric, Wi-Fi-enabled IKI stove. Let us know when you're arriving and we'll have it hot when you get here. All sauna tools, bathrobes, towels, and washcloths provided.
Cold immersion is amazing — and it pairs so well with sauna that we just couldn't have one without the other. Use our outdoor stock tank as much (or as little) as you can handle.
With the click of a button, make the evening cozy with our Minnesota-made stove. Placed in view of the bed for slow mornings.
With rest being the goal of our space, we don't skimp in the comfort department around here. You will love our award-winning Nectar mattress.
Also plural — indoor and outdoor. Inside is equipped with an electric stovetop, fridge, freezer, toaster oven, large sink, all utensils and cookware, and a plethora of coffee-making contraptions. Too nice of a day to spend any time inside? Use the Traeger grill on the patio (grilling made so easy there's no chance of an overcooked steak ruining your evening).
Microwaving s'mores is sin.
Enjoy our luxury shower just a step outside of the sauna — with a view of the woods.
Nothing fancy. Just a solid transportation option to get to the beach (1/4 mile away).
Starlink-fast WiFi reaches every corner of the cabin — fine for video calls, better for ignoring.
