A place of peace and quiet, Bowen Island is only 20 minutes by ferry from West Vancouver and an hour from Vancouver’s international airport. This forested island has long since been a destination for retreat and healing. With lakes, hiking trails, rain forest and mountains, Bowen Island is an ideal setting to start your recovery journey.
Tour
Warm & Welcoming
The Orchard Recovery Center is no ordinary place for addiction treatment. Our facilities are tucked away on Bowen Island, surrounded by West Coast rainforest. A former four-star resort turned addiction recovery center features comfortable guest rooms that welcome you with fireplaces and queen size beds. Relax by the large stone fireplace in the lounge, walk through the gardens or sit by the pool. We have a fully equipped gym and fitness center. Delicious and wholesome meals are a vital part of recovery and our dining room is headed by first rate chefs. Numerous onsite activities include nature walks, mindfulness practices, yoga, art and music therapy.
Recovery Campus & Administrative Buildings
At our Recovery Campus & Administrative buildings, we see miracles happen every day. People who have suffered for years due to substance misuse are able to discover a healthier way of being. We offer a comprehensive and well researched program that is aimed at sustainable recovery. Our physicians, psychiatrist, therapists and nurses have developed a psycho-educational model that addresses the full spectrum of needs and issues of early recovery, with a focus on after care and relapse prevention
Residence
To promote safety and comfort, the residence building is located in a private setting, surrounded by rain forests and lush green fields, with a majestic view that oversees the Island’s mountains. The facility features large shared rooms, dining areas, a swimming pool (seasonal), media room and comfortable areas for clients to work on their recovery steps. Each morning, the clients wake up to fresh coffee, and a rich buffet of healthy breakfast options.
From the Kitchen
Our kitchen staff are always working hard to make sure all of the meals offered are balanced and nutritious, so our clients eat food that supports their recovery. Our seasonal garden provides fresh and organic ingredients for our salads, and our Extended Care clients (post-42 days) learn how to work in our gardens and greenhouse.
