Editor's Review
Richmond Corner Sauna in Richmond, ME, offers a unique blend of relaxation and community spirit that captures the essence of an authentic Finnish sauna experience. Family-owned since 1976, the facility has garnered an impressive 4.4 out of 5 rating across 99 reviews, making it a beloved retreat for both locals and visitors alike. Guests rave about the inviting atmosphere, with Carrie Meyer noting, 'The swimming pool was my favorite! The hot tub was a great place to meet friendly people.' Visitors appreciate the heated swimming pool and outdoor hot tub, which are perfect for unwinding after a session in the sauna.
However, the clothing-optional policy has sparked mixed feelings among patrons. While some embrace this freedom, others feel a bit taken aback. As Jennifer H20 observed, returning after many years, she found it 'a bit of a shock.' Overall, the experience is enhanced by the warm, friendly owners, like Paul, who create a welcoming environment for everyone. Steve Donovan captured it perfectly: 'Our hosts Ridge and John made us feel very comfortable, since we were first timers there.'
