Inspection summary
Cedar Meadows Resort and Spa - Hot Pool has been inspected 31 times by Porcupine Health Unit since June 1, 2022. The most recent inspection, on September 3, 2026, recorded 1 infraction.
14 of 31 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 9 inspections with 11 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality, Protecting food from contamination and Food temperature control.
The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.
Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk
For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.
Recorded 18 times across 14 separate inspections, most recently on September 3, 2026. For example:
Total alkalinity is maintained in the range of 60 ppm to 180 ppm.
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.
Recorded once on January 8, 2026. For example:
Pool water, clean water, and make-up water are free from contamination and hazards.
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.
Recorded once on May 8, 2025. For example:
Pool chemistry, water clarity, and water temperature (if applicable) are checked, tested, and recorded at least 30 minutes prior to opening and as required throughout the daily use period.
Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk
Food and other products must come from approved sources, stay in labelled containers and be thrown out when spoiled, expired or damaged. Labelling also matters for allergies: an unlabelled container can hide an allergen.
Recorded once on November 23, 2022. For example:
Emergency stop button, if provided, is labelled, tested, and recorded once every 30 operating days
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, water-test logs, posted bather rules and emergency procedures. Daily test logs are how operators show the water was checked and treated between inspections.
Recorded 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on November 25, 2025. For example:
Daily records are kept and signed each operating day, and retained for one year.
