What Investors Say

LEAD INVESTOR
Invested $10,000 this round
I am thrilled to have the opportunity to be an early investor in the Sisu + Löyly bathhouse project in Grand Marais, MN. I have been a loyal Sisu + Löyly customer since their opening four years ago, and their saunas are a highlight during my visits to the North Shore of Lake Superior. Between the jaw-dropping views, and Katie’s equally impressive vision, this project is uniquely positioned to become a world class wellness destination. As a small business owner myself, I am dedicated to supporting other female entrepreneurs whose businesses contribute to the growth of their local economies. As an early investor in Watershed Spa, a thriving Bathhouse in Minneapolis, MN, I have witnessed first hand the enthusiasm for the bathhouse culture and the health benefits rooted in Nordic traditions. Katie Usem has successfully bootstrapped Sisu + Löyly to a position of market leadership in the thermal bathing arena, and she is well-positioned for growth. I have no doubt that this project will be a great success, and I believe Katie is the right person to bring it to life.
