Practical Considerations

For maximum comfort and enjoyment of your eco retreat experience, we offer the following practical considerations:
 

What to wear

One of the most important considerations At Kw'o:kw'e:hala eco retreat
is the need for casual attire.

Fashionable attire is okay as long as it is practical, but we really do recommend you bring your old comfortable stuff. Many guests spend their time in shorts, sweats, fleece, and T-shirts, during daily activities and casual evenings.

Huckleberries

You won't want to be inhibited from participating in activities or games for fear of getting your clothes dirty or damaged. For example, sparks from the campfire can easily cause small holes in fleece…yoga on the beach may cause discolouration to clothing from the sand… this is a place of ”no worries”, so please bring casual and comfortable clothing.

While we wish for perfect weather during everyone's stay here at Kw'o:kw'e:hala, mother earth often has her own agenda… we still have fun in the rain, and we still do all the same things.

We encourage presentation of your natural self without makeup, hair-do's, and body cosmetics. We discourage the use of blow-dryers, curling irons and other electrical appliances, so we don't make it ultra convenient to use them. You are respectfully requested to wear unscented body cosmetics of any type (including deodorants) in consideration of those around you.

 

 
 
Other Practical Considerations

We are committed to the environment at Kw'o:kw'e:hala eco retreat. We ask that you observe and protect the environment by following our guidelines throughout your stay.

Open flames of any kind are not permitted anywhere on the 7 acres, except as provided at the campfire. Use of tobacco products is discouraged except outside your own cabin given fire concerns and in consideration of other guests.

Our season runs from mid-April to mid-October annually.

We like to make sure that people with allergies or fear of animals are aware that there is a resident big black lab and 2 resident cats.

The most practical thing of all… have a safe, healthy, fun time while you enjoy the many benefits At Kw'o:kw'e:hala eco retreat B&B.
