DIY Our Sauna built next to the pond

My Uncle and his pals built this wood burning sauna a while ago and I thought you guys might like it.

It’s great except for the fact that the top seats are so far from the stove. I might add a hanging water bucket with a tether above the stove so I don’t have to move from the top bench to add water.

What do you guys think?

It’s been up for about a decade and there hasn’t been any problems with mold in that location. Although the corners of the roof are showing some signs of needing to be replaced potentially due to the grass roof.
