Inspection summary
For-rest Retreat has been inspected 2 times by Interior Health Authority since May 19, 2023. The most recent inspection, on February 4, 2026, recorded 1 infraction.
None of the 2 inspections on record were free of infractions. In the past 12 months there was 1 inspection with 1 infraction recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct food-handling risks.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Floors, walls and ceilings must be smooth and clean, with working lighting, ventilation, plumbing, hot and cold water, and washrooms. These are rarely an immediate food-safety risk on their own, but persistent problems can lead to pest or sanitation issues.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on February 4, 2026. For example:
4 Does the premises have the key services (e.g. water, sewer, power) required to operate safely?

This place was magical!!! ! I was looking for a 3 night yoga retreat in the Kootenays and Johanna, the host at For-Rest , designed a private yoga retreat that offered amazing yoga, hiking, time at the water, sound bath healing, Thai massage, the most DELICIOUS cuisine prepared by Johanna herself (a trained culinary chef) and soooooo much more. My entire experience was beyond 5 star and I will most certainly plan another retreat stay at For-Rest. I stayed in The Casita which was so comfortable and clean. Sliding doors from the bedroom led to your private back deck with a swinging chair, a hammock, outdoor dining and a spectacular view of the mountains. I really can’t say enough of my experience and the generosity of the host. Thank you so much again Joanna xo
