Welcome to Resthouse

We're driven by a mission to inspire, nurture and cultivate positive, lasting change through the restorative power of rest.

Founder/Owner

Chris Manley

As a young boy with ADHD, the most challenging pursuit of Chris’s mother was getting him to sleep. When he slept, his nervous system settled—a rare moment of peace amidst an always-busy brain. Over the years, sleep became his superpower, returning him to a place of calm time and time again. Chris experienced firsthand how essential sleep was for managing his anxiety, and feeling grounded in everyday life.

His early experiences sparked a lifelong interest in how sleep works, and how to improve it. Chris spent 15 years with Sleep Country, learning everything there is to know about mattresses, bedding, and how people sleep. It was an important step to grow in the industry. Over time, however, he saw things shift. The move to a one-sided mattress model meant products didn’t hold up the way they used to, causing premature mattress sagging and increased sleep discomfort. With a decrease in quality, it became harder to confidently recommend anything. 

Chris knew there was a better, more personal way to help people sleep. A persuit with integrity at its core, built around individual needs with quality-made products that stood the test of time. Plus, he knew he wanted to share the product that had made the most lasting difference in his own life—the body pillow. 

Resthouse itself had humble beginnings in Chris’s garage in 2014. With just 450 square feet and a few half-queen mattress stations, it was a tiny space with a big vision. From there, Chris took the concept on the road to home shows, and then into the community— first at the Community Farm Store, and then to Station Street downtown Duncan.

Today, Resthouse operates in both Duncan and Victoria, and is still rooted in the same mission—to create sleep solutions that actually work. Chris remains at the heart of Resthouse, and you’ll often find him in-store, listening with curiosity, and excitedly educating and guiding people through their sleep journey. For him, it’s always been about connection, and the belief that everyone deserves a sleep space that feels safe, supportive, and restful.

Our Sleep Philosophy

Sleep Well, Live Well

Sleep shapes every part of our lives—it’s not a luxury; it’s a necessity. And just as no two people are the same, no two sleepers are alike. Your sleep is personal, and it should never be compromised.

We believe sustainable sleep is possible, and nature provides everything we need for true restorative rest. By choosing pure, all-natural materials, we create an environment where you can sleep in harmony with the world around you—without taking from it.

Paired with thoughtful design, our sleep essentials evolve with you, reducing waste and environmental impact while delivering lasting comfort and quality support. To us, sustainability means creating a sleep space that nurtures both you and the planet.

Because when we sleep well, we live well. And that should never be out of reach.
