love this place! first time going today with a friend to just have a girls day and it was so relaxing and calm. I love how quaint it is and is very cozy. staff was amazing with great service
This is a money-grab spa! I purchased a one-night stay for two people at the hotel, which offered access to the spa for $250 through Tuango. Check-in was at 4 pm, and check-out was at noon the next day. Most of the spa facilities were dysfunctional or closed. They only opened a small hot pool that looked dirty and one steam room with very weak steam that only worked after 20 minutes of waiting inside, and even then, you didn't even sweat. And an aromatherapy room with one oil diffuser you can hardly smell, the one you purchase from a pharmacy or a supermarket. Their bistro was closed, although they told me it was open one week before my arrival. We had to drive to town to eat. They gave us two breakfast bags to put in the fridge for the following day. The bag had one box of juice, one cold banana bread, and an energy bar. The room was clean, but the furniture was ancient. Two tradesmen were working in different areas with ladders and tools. The place looks like a construction zone. They need significant renovations. Don’t waste your money there!
The good: The bed was amazingly comfortable. The service people inside the building--reception and bistro were exceptional and the food in the bistro while simple was very good. The paths between buildings were well cleared of snow. The bad: Our room was unbearably cold and the interior walls were even damp! We were told the room hadn't been used in a week or more and the heat turned off. It was -15C outside! With the fireplace on and a supplementary heater from reception, it still took four hours to reach a comfortable temperature. The next morning, the wet sauna didn't come on (we got staff to check it out). The jets wouldn't start in the waterfall pool. Except for the waterfall pool, there were no hooks to hang up robes at the saunas or the other pool. The dry sauna floor had a fold that was a trip hazard and broken off hooks inside. The snow wasn't cleared from the chairs or the whole deck in front of the bistro. We could have put robes on the chairs given the lack of hooks. I won't go on but it was very disappointing. We had been here before Covid and loved it. In summary, the place is in need of simple maintenance in many areas.
Went for a 2 day spa getaway. Stayed 1. Check-in was at 4 PM. Gave us a tour of the facilities. Spa itself is VERY small (more than 6 people are it's uncomfortable), everything else (sauna, massage, thermal spa, feet detoxification) closes at 4 PM. So we returned to our room. No TV, no microwave. Nothing much to do in the area (it was in mid March so I am aware that we were in-between seasons), room floors were wet. Walls are paper thin. Hear everything that's going on in the hall and the floor above. Staff however are courteous and friendly. If you're looking for a spa...this place, unfortunately, isn't it.
Horrible nightmare. The bed sheets were dirty and smelled bad. We had to hold the knob to drain the tub water. I think I caught an infection from the hot tub too. We found a wet roll of toilet paper on the bathroom shelf.. Very unsanitary conditions. Plus we tried to cancel 1 hr after booking and they wouldn't let us. Read the fine prints and don't expect anything to be included. Breakfast is not included either. This place is not the same. Not worth it anymore.
We spent the night there, the rooms were cute, very relaxing however most of the services they present are actually not ON so for example the salt room, Siberian sauna or infrared sauna are off and it takes a good hour for them to be running so you don’t get to really use them properly. Outside the receptionist, the staff was quite annoyed that we asked questions about where different facilities are at or how they work. They do not have a map or instructions so you need to find everything yourself.
DO NOT STAY HERE. This is the old "Polar Bear Club". We went there in fall'24. Unless they've done major renovations, they should not be advertising as a spa. I am not typically picky, but it was almost comical if not for the price. The jacuzzis did not work, the paint in the hottub was peeling. The sauna was like a small closet/box. "Breakfast" was left on the floor outside our door, I think it was a muffin and an apple. Our room had a vibrating bed that was only a sample from manufacturer, would run for 1 minute, then an ad. LOL PLEASE do yourself a favour and book one of the many lovely places in the area that may even cost less. I was reluctant and waiting to leave a review, but I realized that I need to warn others.
We enjoyed such an amazing place and perfect services . Wonderful place, relaxing spa , we will come back 100%. Thank you very much for everything. Your pools are very gorgeous , spa relaxing , river with beautiful cascades is amazing ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

We went there after work one day & it was a great place to unwind. There weren't many people, we practically had the place to ourselves. It's a smaller spa but they have a few hot/cold pools & you can even take a dip in the river. Nice lounging chairs, hammocks, lockers & showers were very clean. Great place for a quick getaway.
We came here for the first time and really enjoyed this spa! there weren’t a lot of people so that was a plus. Everything was quite clean. We also had access to the river which was great! (be careful - there’s little tiny black worms in the river) The only reason I put 4 stars was because the steam room wasn’t working and we had to go multiple times back to the reception to ask when it would get fixed. Also wish they had provided shampoo & body wash. There was only 1 type of soap in the showers and I forgot to bring my own and felt really damaging for my hair. However, overall a great experience and would come again :)
I spent a wonderful August day with my daughter at Bagni Spa. The spa is small, intimate and includes a waterfall, seated pools and lounge chairs in the river. This was our favourite place to relax. The pools and deck area are also very nice. I recommend a visit to Bagni Spa if you are visiting St.Sauveur or Ste-Adele.
First time visit. Very nice surroundings and outdoor setting is great. Enjoyed a massage and thermal circuit which was very good. The only thing keeping it from 5 stars for me is the relaxation area in the facility due to the fact it is old. Every footstep, creak and crack can be heard. Would go again, in the summer time.
I have been coming to this spa with my wife for many years, I believe even before the current owners or management and absolutely love this place. I have seen it go from a small basic spa to what it is today. It's never too busy, always cozy and comfortable. May be smaller than polar bear spa across the river, but that makes it more intimate, and relaxing. Don't forget to bring a water bottle and your own robe just in case, even though they rent them out.I always look forward to a massage and a visit to this place!
Rented the spa for a private party for my husband’s 40th birthday. We were well received by the owner, Amelie, who made sure all our needs were met. The facilities were clean and nice. It was perfect for our intimate affair. The owner referred us to a caterer (the one that cooks the food for their bistro). The food was amazing! We had an amazing time! Will definitely be back Wendy
Unfortunately, we weren't too impressed with this spa. It's a beautiful area but a quick sweep of the pools & grounds to remove all the pines from trees floating and sticking to us before opening would have been easy to do. There was no wind and we were the first to arrive. I understand if there are a few floating around but there were way too much. As if the filters weren't working. The litte spa was the only one clean & as soon as you are 6, you are pretty much full if you want space. To be honest, if that small pool was the cold one for dipping only and the other large one next to it a hot one, we would have sense of space. Not hearing everyone's conversations. There was no staff to control the silence. We had a family of loud talkers that were annoying alot of people. We never got a chance to use the vapor bath because it was always full. Not going to go back.
My friend invited me for a day at this spa. it's a lovely, small and intimate space. The sound of the river with all the tree made it such a resting place. The Sauna, pools, lockers are clean and nice. On a non busy day, it's a perfect spot. The staff are courteous. Insure you bring proper none slipping sandals, not the one they sell, as they aren't made sturdy and i ended up slipping, breaking the sandal on the stairs near the rocks. I would advise wearing swimming shoes with anti slipping sole. I would probably go back.

Took the Family trail from east to west but we LOVED the east side better. It was a fairly easy hike. If you go to the west side with a stroller, I do not recommend it because of the steep hill towards the end. Come early as parking can be an issue. Thankfully we arrived at 9 am when there was still ample space, but when we left at noon, cars were parked almost up to a km away from the entrance.
Delightful hike, made even more atmospheric with the sound of the water and many dogs on the trail. Parts have a wide trail and other parts with lots of stones and tree roots. And also climbing. But very moderate. Would do this again when in town next time.
This is a beautiful park, with multiple hiking trails and a main trail that even those with strollers or those who are mobility reduced can use. You can fish here ($19 per adult, $7 per child over 6, 5 and under are free) or just pay to get in and hike the trails if you are not fishing (prices are less expensive than if you are fishing). At the main entrance, there are bathrooms. The trails are marked on an easy to read map. There are lots of stunning views, dense forest and lots of animals to see! Above all, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the park was clean and well maintained. There is also a little area at the main entrance with picnic tables, a little shaded gazebo and a play structure for kids to play on! You can do fly fishing here, or bait fishing and they sell live worms at the main entrance. A hidden jewel, I would highly recommend going there as a family or even on your own.
Nice relaxing hike. Good for families with young kids or hiking with your dog. "Beginner hike" bit well worth doing at least once. The water fall is beautiful. Easily accessible. Lots of parking.
Incredible experience. If you are from Montreal definitely worth the 50 minute drive. Not only is a beautiful place it's a very serene experience. If you're looking for a good place to go hiking and challenge yourself this is it. You have a path to follow but also can create your own. Pack a back pack with water and some food and you can also enjoy your own lunch anywhere you stop (benches available) if you're in to fishing definitely a place for you as well. Highly recommend
A scenic hiking area with an amazing forest trail. You will need crimp on spikes or snowshoes, but well worth it. You can bring your dog and cost for an adult is $7 for non residents. Lots of parking.
We just LOVE park Doncaster! We have been coming here for years with our dogs as they allow entrance to dogs! They have a variety of trails to choose from. Beautiful wooded areas along with a walk beside the rapid waters and falls. It’s very serene and peaceful here. There is an entrance fee. There are bathrooms in the park and garbage cans aswell. Picnic tables are available at the entrance. It’s worth the drive from anywhere. We live on the West Island and love the drive there and back. We always stop by old st. Sauveur for dinner at the ye old orchard pub ( their terrace allows dogs!)
I loved it. I recommend going in the winter or waiting for the snow to have completely melted as the trails weren’t as well marked and easy to go up. When you try to reach the baby summit there was a small ravine I had to go through and my feet got wet. But overall it’s really fun and you could definitely go with a child.

We spent an amazing family day at Au Pays des Merveilles, and our 3-year-old absolutely loved it! The mechanical dinosaurs were a huge hit, and there were more than enough activities to keep him entertained all day. With over 55 activities designed for kids aged 2 to 8, this park is a dream come true for little ones. The park is full of characters from your favorite fairy tales, like Alice, Cinderella, Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, and the Queen of Hearts, making it a truly magical experience for the whole family. The beautiful little cottages and enchanting settings add to the charm. Located on a wooded hillside, the park also offers giant slides, inflatable games, 10 mechanical rides, water games, a mini farm, and picnic areas, making it the perfect place for a full day of fun. There’s also plenty of picnic areas, a snack bar, and outdoor parking. Whether you're enjoying the free Wi-Fi, mini-golf, or watching live shows, there's something for everyone. If you're looking for a magical and fun-filled day in Sainte-Adèle, I highly recommend Au Pays des Merveilles. We can’t wait to return for another memorable family day next summer!
Just visited and would give it a 10/10. Came here with my children 7 and 4yrs old to spend the day! There was so much to do that we just couldn't do it all! The rides were fantastic, especially the larger rollercoaster which their staff let us go again and again!! The staff in general were so kind and gracious. The mini put was fun, the playstructure, games, slides in the trees, water park and visiting the characters homes were so special! Would highly recommend for families with kids under 10.
Very cute place for toddlers under 5. Some things need a little bit of renovation but super fun nonetheless. There are bouncy castles, little parks, splash pad, princess houses, little rides and much more. Love the fact that it is in the forest . Like a true fairytale .
Such a beautiful place for families. Make sure you're ready to walk steep hills
Absolutely amazing place. My daughter 3 years old had a real fun. So did me. Come for the whole day because this park is big, so much fun to explore. Some of the rides the child can do by his/her own, some - with parents. The staff does height measurements before riding some rides. We had so much fun!
This place is perfect for kids from 0-8 years old! Before you enter the place, you are obliged to wash your hands at the entrance. Hand sanitizer are scattered everywhere, mask are not mandatory but advised to wear in enclosed place and rides. What I liked about this place is, it's not so big that you cannot go ride/try all their rides. My kids never waited more than 5 minutes in all rides except the roller coaster. If you come during the hot days, don't worry this place was surrounded by trees that gives you breeze and shades. Most of the rides, playground & benches have shades which I loved. You can bring your own food or buy in the restaurant inside. Staff are nice and bilingual. Over experience, we loved it! Surely coming back again next year
Fun for the entire family with young kids. It's great for younger kids who aren't big enough to go to La Ronde yet. It's like a mini La Ronde. There are various rides, little shows, ball pits, parks, and a small water park too. Bring your coolers with your food and enjoy the day. I would suggest having a water fan or something to cool down, if you're not going to the water park as it gets really hot on beautiful days. We saw some princess too which is extra fin for the little ones.
Very nice place for a outing with clthe family,very clean amd managed.Some lil attractions are outdated but children won't care,multiple toilets and picnic areas,my son loved the roller coaster and super long slides.Best part of our day was LULU she was one of the ride conductors she was adorable and so good with the kids,she is the twinkle of pays des merveilles.

Very fun and easy for new horse riders. Never too old to try something new. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would do again.
Great experience! Horses seemed well cared for and were a great ride. The trails were very scenic and our guide was sweet and tailored our ride to us. Plus prices we great! And it’s not that far from the city. Will definitely come again!
Very dishonest and unprofessional! Do not go there! We were a group of 6 and we booked for semi- private cow-boy experience. It supposed to be $75 for 2 hours; the first hour would be the training to be cowboy and the second hour is at trails. First of all, the owner called us to tell us to come at 2:30 instead of 2:00. Then she charged us $95each person instead of $75. They finally got us started at 2:50. We kind of learn to brush 1 horse for like 5 mins then we were waiting forever (20mins or so )for them to gather all other 6 horses and prepare them. After this, we walk the horses very slowly in the outdoor rink for 8 mins, AND THAT WAS IT FOR THE WHOLE COWBOY TRAINING!!!!! Finally we went to walk in the muddy trail for less than an hour and that was the whole cow boy experience! I could not help to complain to one of the owner and he refunded us $20 for each person but wait a min. that was what we were supposed to pay at the begining and he said there is nothing he could do more!
We booked in the morning while staying at the Esterel Resort for 1 pm. Private family tour of 4, $75 each for a hour. Showed up at 1245, was on the house at 1pm. Great tour, loved the top of the hill with the view of Saint Adele. Back by 2 pm. Would recommend.
A wonderful experience. The horses are healthy and calm. The staff are super friendly. The trails are in a beautiful forest. Had a perfect experience. Will definitely be coming back for more.
Great place for horseback riding. Staff is friendly and courteous. Most of the staff is bilingual, so don't worry about communication. This was our second visit and we will be coming back again!
I'm sorry to say that I've rarely such a place where horses are poorly treated (roughly and dirty conditions), horses are very sensitive animals and "accidents" happen not by coincidence where they are treated so averagely... Employees are actually helpful but they cannot manage the schedule as well, prepare to wait maybe 2 hours or more even with a reservation. Also, Covid does not seem to exist in this location...
The most friendly People ever ! If you would like to get in touch with nature with a nice horse back riding this is the place to be. Our guide Erica was amazing ! Thank you for this amazing experience !

Slide 1 of 8
To be completely honest. It's one of the last great cinema I regularly go to. It has an amazing aesthetic and the regular customers are super respectable during the movie (unlike other places). Love that place.
Classic movie theater in the area. Entry and popcorn very affordable. It has an intimate feel. Seating is average. Great spot up north to watch a new release.
Very nice older fashion (mom and pop genre). The place is super clean, the staff is professional and courteous. Not the most modern seating but comfortable nonetheless. All in all a very much enjoyable evening in a nice setting without the crowd of the city. What else to ask
Something about this place! Very clean, cozy and a small cinema. No lineups to get the drinks and the popcorn, polite and friendly stuff. The latest movies in French and English. I've got a good experience.
I loved my experience at the Pine! Its a pleasure to visit this local business: the staff is super-friendly. Last time, I was here for Oppenheimer and we had an emergency at home and had to leave in a hurry. When i was rushing out the staff had the courtesy to mention that they would be pleased to offer tickets for another viewing. Will come again for sure.
We've been here a handful of times since it's easier to get to a Theatre to watch a new movie. The Theatre is small, not that much choice of snacks either. This recent visit just put the nail in the coffin. We went to see Indiana Jones in room 3. We entered the small hall and it reaked of baby diapers/pee pretty bad. There was no a.c either until the end of the movie. Not the best choice for a great movie experience so I would suggest that you try Laval or Montreal. I guess as we're local, it's the only option, unfortunately. Giving it a 2 at best.
Not a big theatre but I prefer that to a huge one where it feels super overwhelming. It's a nice cosy place with easy to find rooms where you're meant to go for your movie. The popcorn and snacks are a bit expensive to get but I guess they do make their own popcorn to be fair.
Great theater, the best independent theater in Quebec by far, 8 "salles" to choose from. They alternate shows between English original and French original versions which is a plus for those of us who like the original thing better. The viewing rooms have been completely redone, very comfortable, the acoustic is plus one,lots of variety in the film choices. I don't go anywhere else, bonus it's down the street from where I live. If you're driving there is ample parking space, recommended for film lovers and novices alike.

Magic carpet is open again, and it is the best little ski hill for price and wait times in the laurentians with runs for every level of skier
Had a great time skiing at Chantecler! The staff was friendly, and while the kids were on the slopes, I also had the chance to enjoy a snowshoeing adventure.
Mediocre experience in December 2022. Magic carpet was closed. Cafeteria was closed and needed to order in chaos at the bistro, where they had run out of fries and salad. Needless to say the wait was unreasonable. Few runs for beginners. The more advanced runs are fun.
I give this place 5 Stars based on what it is offering - a local smaller hill that has a family feel to the place. Runs are groomed well, lots of diverse runs for all types of skiing, great beginner runs and school. Cafeteria is nothing to speak about but for a typical small ski hill like this and other, Valley Blue, Belle Neige et. Al., they all have average food. Their strength seem like simple things like soups, various beverages, snacks, even good fries. Better to bring your own food. They provide lockers for storage and have a small but nice ski accessory store. Parking is pretty good and staff were all helpful and bilingual, which makes a difference. Though this place is not trying to be a world class resort , it kind of is in the sense of a warm safe atmosphere. You can see lots of families as well a youngster here and they also have various specialized programs for racing etc. I am a fan of chanticlair. Next year I’ll get a seasons pass for me and my daughter.
Don't go, it's good that it's so nice and quiet. Great little hike to enjoy the fall colors.
Very nice spot with good view but not many people. Very convenient and good services. A great pleasure to ski here!
Very small hill but fun just to get some light snowboarding or skiing in. Keep an eye out on their events, they often have good deals like Friday women specials for 20$ lift tickets and some Saturdays where rental is only 13$ and the lift ticket is also 13$. I wouldn't pay full price for this hill personally, we only went because we wanted something close by to the cottage and cheap and through Costco tickets and women Friday specials, it was very worth it. Only 1 of the 3 chairlifts was running at the time.
Bought the tickets for entire family. Came on January 22, 2023 at noon. My wife and one of the kids are still beginners. Learning slope was closed, only one lift was working. Went up and realized that all green slopes are closed, no one around to ask. Had to take blue slopes with 2 beginners, betting on luck. Writing this post from the hospital, luck was not on our side. Thank you ski Chantecler, i will never forget this experience, unfortunately.

Woooow for service great staff and the best monitor ever Amelie Racine she is attentonate and sweet with my kid and my family 100% would recommend & the sign up i pad is literally the best thing ever makes the check in very easy.
The hill is smaller and easier to navigate. Easier to park and get to hills and chalets. Definitely recommended over the neighborhood mountains
Generally not too crowded, decent runs, a bit short, but you'll make up for it with shorter lift lines. Unpretentious local ski hill
The ski trails were well-maintained and offered a good variety from beginner to expert. The cafeteria and bar were dated but reasonably priced. I would suggest replacing the faded safety signs on the chair lift poles (the ones advising clients when to lift the safety bar for disembarkment). My son had an excellent one-hour private ski lesson, which included equipment rental and an additional one hour of practice skiing. We stayed nearby at the non-affiliated Hotel and Spa Mont-Gabriel. There is no advantage to stay at that hotel for its "ski-in and ski-out" privileges, especially if you need to rent equipment at the ski hill, because the two facilities are not owned by the same company. Slightly discounted lift tickets and ski rentals can be charged to the hotel room (24-hour notice in advance is required to get equipment rentals charged to the room), but you still need to line up DAILY at ski hill ticket counter to do the paperwork and to get equipment rental vouchers. The line-up can be one hour on busy days and they were reluctant to provide multi-day rentals or lift tickets despite the great three-day packages mentioned on their website!!! The customer service staff were not very helpful to non-season-pass clients. However, the rental equipment staff was very friendly during our fitting. My family wanted a three-day pass with three-day equipment rental, but I had to line up EVERY day to get our DAILY Go Passe lift ticket... even though I had charged everything to my hotel room on the 2nd and 3rd days of my stay. Sommet Gabriel looks and operates the same as it did 30 years ago except for newer electronic Go Passe lift tickets... but they demonstrate very little innovation for coordinating easy access lift tickets with nearby hotels (or via their website) like is done routinely at Le Massif or in New England or Banff... This is so disappointing, especially for guests of nearby lodgings, which could offer skiiers a much better experience (especially if hotel guests could rent a locker at the ski hill to store their rental equipment during multiple days of skiing... and use the same Go Passe for the entire stay). Skiiers using ski-in and ski-out from the Hotel Mont- Gabriel need to carry rental equipment across the parking lot, through the narrow hotel lobby doors and down a flight of stairs to the cramped ski locker room! Despite the outdated decor in the Sommet Gabriel lodge and the antiquated lift ticket sales desk, the hill offers some excellent ski conditions (once we completed the daily paperwork and actually started skiing). Ideally, they should distribute, to local hotels, some activated Go Passe lift tickets (loaded with or without an equipment rental voucher). This would allow clients to bypass the long lines at the customer service and boutique cashes. The hotel guest could then bring the activated pass directly to the rental equipment desk or go directly to the lifts (for those who own their own equipment). Now wouldn't that be nice? Bon ski.
Great slope for beginners. Well maintained with several chair lifts. Nice ski instructors for kids (not for snowboard though)
Nice little mountain 45 minutes away from Montreal. They offer ski/snowboarding lessons.
Nice ski station. Not Very big but interesting veriaty of slopes.
Great place. The spring camp is amazing. Staff are very nice and friedly. The instructors are very professional, helpful and very efficient. We enjoyed and my kid was able to ski on the 1st day alone. Caroline the instructor is the best, she knew how to make my kid feel confident and trust himself and enjoy skiing by himself 🥳🥳🥳. Strongly recommend Sommet Gabriel ❤

Overall, these fishing ponds are a hidden gem, caught 5 delicious rainbow trout in a span of 30-40minutes! You’re guaranteed a memorable and enjoyable fishing adventure at Martin le pecheur!
A truly lovely environment! it felt like hanging out in our own backyard, but without any of the chores. Honestly, you don’t even need to show up in a good mood! this place will fix that for you.
Excellent expérience. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable. Easy to catch fish, cook on the BBQ and eat right there and then. Recommend whole heartedly.
Very expensive for a simple fish,the fish taste muddy which is unusual for trout. 2 lbs for 47$ that's a lot of money. And you can't return to the water the one you don't want.
Very nice place. We caught 14 nice truite ;) kids are non stop did not want to come back home hehe. They clean the fishes too ! My son already asking to come back hehe. Will come back.It worthed try it ;)
Best place to spend your weekend with the family !! BBQ , fishing and everything the nature has to offer Exceptional owners and hosts , make you feel like part of their family
Antoine and the crew are very nice, beautiful place to spend the day with friends and family fishing and picnic.
Perfect combination of recreation and relaxation, amazing place to spend quality time with family,,, helpful and welcoming crew on the site ، highly recommended

Beautiful small lake north of Montreal nice ply to spend a sunny warm day but a bit pricy for its size at 10 per person per day
Too many people for such a small lake
BEAUTIFUL SMALL COZY LAC ... SO SAFTY .GOOD SERVICE .. NATURE .. AMAZING
Nice but sadly was raining
Favorite place to be
(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed kayaking on the lake, it's a peaceful place towards the end of the afternoon and I found the staff very friendly, there's a nice little beach for swimming!🌞🏖️ (Original) J’ai bien aimé faire du kayak sur le lac c’est un endroit paisible vers la fin de l’après midi et j’ai trouvé le personnel très sympathique ,il y a une belle petite plage pour se baigner !🌞🏖️
(Translated by Google) It's just magnificent, the landscape is breathtaking and the water is super clean. (Original) C’est juste magnifique le paysage est à couper le souffle et l’eau est super propre

Amazing hotel. Cozy, charm and excellent to spend a weekend with the family. People said the hotel looks old, I actually look the vintage style. Heated pool was super warm. Nice and completely breakfast. And if you like to ski like we do, you're just five minutes away from the hills, and if you purchase the ski tickets at the hotel, they cost 10 dollars instead of 60.
The rooms are outdated and need some renovations but the views and nature around it makes it worth the trip, especially in the spring and summer time. The lake is gorgeous and I would visit again but not to sleep there, I recommend to have lunch on their beautiful terrace and spend the day on the lake..
Its a very cozy place with a cute little lake. We met up with our friends, who were staying at the hotel, for supper. Service was very warm and welcoming upon arrival through lobby. The restaurant was decently priced for comfort foods. There were a bunch of weddings happening that night so a lot of people walking around going in and out to smoke outside the main entrance.
Absolutely wonderful place to spend some time in tranquility. A million dollar view from the terrace cafe, so you can enjoy a glass of your favourite drink or a cup of coffee overlooking the lake. Hotel has a private access to the lake with sun lounges and non motorised water sport equipment. Staff is very friendly and professional. Rooms are clean and cozy, beds and pillows are very comfortable. Will be back!
I was in Port C and the room had some kind of smell. Tiny fridge, the pool is way too far from the C section of the hotel. There are 3 different entrance A, B and C. No elevators. Its beside nice lake nice place to wall around out side of the hotel. The lobby looks nice.
Nice clean rooms with two beds, television, large armoire, Keurig machine. Cleaning staff are thorough and discrete. Wonderful food in restaurant/bar, and lots of other amenities like pool/exercise room/etc. Staff were excellent and pleasant to deal with. Great atmosphere all around. Would stay again.
Super great service!! The hotel is so cute and quaint. The food is absolutely incredible. We went for our anniversary and to check it out as a wedding venue and it was great!! We definitely recommend it for any thing! Isabelle- the event coordinator was a dream to work with.
Went there for a wedding the reception room was good with a nice view. But I have to say the hotel needs a serious refresh. I was not impressed by the food either and our room had coffee stain on one wall and the bath was also dusty ...

Great course kept well groomed and friendly staff 👍
Feels like this golf course has so much potential and left disappointed. The tee areas are very dry and hard , impossible to put in a tee at times. A lot of construction and repairs happening and a few courses are in rough shape. Played 18 holes and never ran into the Marshall even though there was a group of 8 in front of us that were walking which created a backlog. The staff we ran into was super nice and the scenery is gorgeous. Some holes were quite difficult but still fun. Some areas had water shown on map but it was all dried up and just a ditch I know there’s an effort to take better care of the course and hope they keep going.
Very nice course. Mostly flat. Couldnt rent a cart for some reason.
If you are looking for an inexpensive day of golf with good green conditions this is a great place to play. We play 9 holes and just perfect. Service is very good and friendly.
Course is in good conditions, beautiful views and landscapes. however, total absence of services and prices are not up to expectations. Club house closed, turn stand closed and premium golf course prices. Lower the price or improve services.
I’ve been playing here for years now. The new owners are investing well on the course and club house. Price wise this year on a Friday 18 holes and cart 78$ to much for this course. Usually play this course 20 times a year. No more. Staff is nice
Lots of geese and the accompanying mess , fairways pretty thin in a lot of places, greens are ok , it’s a pity the 10th hole is under repair turning it into a lackluster par 4 from a downhill dogleg par 5
Challenging course great scenery and not too expensive!

Beautiful views in every direction. I played during the renovation. So the course was not in its best shape. But, we had a lot of fun. Definitely will be back next time I visit Montreal.
Love this place. Weekdays it is quiet and a very reasonable deal at $65 before 8am. It is hard to believe they built such a nice course on a mountain top. Must visit
Very challenging and beautiful. Not walkable. Not having a place to share a post match drink detracted from this first experience. Hence the 4 star rating
Great place to hold meetings, linch was really good, the place is clean and spotles
After the fire, they opted to replace the country inn charm with more of a city vibe. I prefer the old style but it is still very nice.
Great views and friendly staff but course was a little dry
I enjoy my brief stay at this hotel. The waiters were very polite. The ambiance and food was great also. I was however disappointed with the size of the room with two single beds. Knowing it was our Valentines celebration, we tried to make the most of it.
I don’t think I’ve played a course in worse condition than this. The tee boxes were mostly dirt, the fairways mostly weed, and the greens were terrible. What’s worse is that it cost $89. I’d understand if it were $39 like some of the other courses in the area. Really don’t recommend if you take the game of golf just a little bit seriously.

Great enterprise offering guided trips, initiations and courses to help improve personal skills. They have multiple well experienced guides working for them and I enjoyed both courses I took to improve my mountaineering skills with them. They offer lodging and the bar next door is pretty cool with great food.
As others have said AVOID THIS PLACE if you care about customer service. Impossible to have someone pick up the phone. Because of this I only found out the day after my resvation had to be cancelled via Thier on line service. I called at 6 pm the day before and only after leaving a frustrated message the day after did they grace me with a return call. And now I am paying for a room I will not be using. Again If you are looking for a rude I don't give a crap about customer service. But want your Money Then this is the place for you. High way robbery. OH AND YOU ARE NOT OPEN 24HRS.BECAUSE IF YOU HAD BEEN I WOULD HAVE RECIEVED A PHONE CALL THE DAY OF. SO THAT IS FALSE ADVERTISEMENT
We signed up for the HM-1 course. Everything was explained to us clearly and steadily. The pace was good for both days. This is an excellent starting point for complete beginners. We learned various knots, belaying, anchoring, climbing, self-arrest, repelling, and equipment inspection. All gear was provided for us, except clothing. *Crampons were available for rent* We are excited to continue with HM-2 next winter.
Stayed for one night. Next time we are coming for more days as this place is very clean, well equipped and surrounded by nature. Beautiful lake with a beach, forest, mountain climbing and many more. Strongly recommended. Thank you Isabella 😊 Shanil
The manager tried to scam us out of a stay because she didn't want to give us a key. But once we got the room it was clean and relatively nice for the price. Other then that the lerances were beautiful and the lake was very warm.
Awesome climbing gym! Love it! 😁
The staff is great and the place is awesome!

I can truly tell you the dinner of this place is absolutely one of the best ones you will ever experience. First you are greeted with amazing staff, next you will seat with the absolute amazing views of the lake. We were party of 4 and with the small menu that they had we almost ordered everything on it, and they were all extremely good. I highly recommend this place.

Great 9 Hole course. Fantastic value. I played before 8:00 am and the round cost $20! Finished in 1.5 hours. Greens and fairways in great shape. I will go again tomorrow. See some wild turkeys on the third hole in pictures.
Very pleasant public course. These little 9 hole courses are becoming rare. Greens are decent, some narrow fairways made more intimidating because of housing development, but I imagine this helps fund the course. Worth going if you only have 2 hours to play
I saw the numerous reviews today talking about the rudeness of the staff. I called to inquire to see if they changed their client service approach. They told me I better go nearby courses La Vallée de Ste-Adèle or Chanteclerc.
Great if only it were a 18 hole instead of a 9 hole.
Very quiet golf course!
Great course! Probably the best in the area. The lobby area is nice and the service was amazing.
Marshal was very unpleasant, course is nice, but bad experience on the customer service end of it.
Well maintained range. Super relaxing atmosphere. Recommended.
