I go camping on an island which has no electricity or running water.  The 
ranger's girlfriend rigged up something similar.  She took an old 
clawfoot bathtub, and dug a pit partially under it.  She burns wood to 
heat up the water.  

She has a short wooden platform on the bottom of the tub to sit/lay on.  
I guess the cast iton gets HOT!

But she cheats:  She uses a generator-driven pump to get the water from 
the lake.
