“The Sweat Culture is such a special authentic sauna experience. The wood-fired heat just hits different, and it's the perfect cozy size giving you the option to really crank the heat! The setting is unreal, looking out over the lake and mountains from the sauna, then jumping straight into a cold plunge is just so good. And Braden and Nina are absolute legends. You can tell they really care about what they've built. Couldn't recommend it more!”
“What a FANTASTIC Okanagan experience!! My husband & I came for the 1st time & LOVED IT! Nina is such a wonderful, attentive host. We had a SPECTACULAR VIEW of the lake & mountains, watched the crackling FIRE & flickering flames from inside the sauna, topped off with eucalyptus aromatherapy (all of it was AMAZING!) Of course we also did rotating cold dips into the lake!! We're definitely coming back & bringing friends!!!”
“100% worth the experience. Nina was an incredible host setting up everything perfect for our experience. The sauna was unbelievable. As well, the ability to jump into the lake was another joy and totally refreshing. I did it 4 times. The price, location, service, and benefits were well worth it. I highly recommend giving Sweat Culture a try. You won't be disappointed!”
“Best experience ever!! Our party of 6 had a fantastic time at Sweat Culture this evening. We enjoyed challenging ourselves to cold plunges in the lake and then sweltering in the sauna. The aromatherapy the hosts put in the water was an extra special treat! We will be back for sure!”

“First time ever doing this and it was amazing!! Nina was an absolute sweetheart. She took the time to go over the benefits of the hot sauna and cold plunge saying its good for circulation, detoxifying and boosting up your heart health. She was always there to check in on us to make sure we were fine, as she knew it was my first time. I appreciated the checking in — will definitely use them again!”

“Absolutely love this sauna. It's such a cozy, peaceful spot and you can't beat the beach location — being able to hop straight into the lake for a cold plunge makes the whole experience.

It's great to see a wellness-focused business like this in Peachland offering services that promote long-term health. The concept, atmosphere, and focus on real health benefits really stand out. Highly recommend checking them out if you're into proactive health, recovery, and overall well-being.”

“Omg what a fantastic experience! I'm not a big cold plunge OR sauna person but it was so fun and Braden gave me the courage to go into the lake for a full dunk! Great vibes and great location. Bringing crocs to walk into the lake was a game changer! WOULD 10/10 RECOMMEND.”
“We booked out the sauna with our family for Boxing Day and it was awesome. Fit 3 adults and 2 kids (8 & 11) great. We all ran out and cold plunged in the lake. The kids could go in the tent if they were too hot for a break. Love that there is a way to enjoy the lake and waterfront in the winter.”
