Its story

The history of the territory dates back to the era of logging and log driving on Lac Port-aux-Quilles, where the piles of timber gathered there resembled bowling pins. The logging carried out by Mr. Arsène Bilodeau, the first owner in the area, gave rise to the estate. The outfitting operation was later acquired by a second couple of owners, François and Julie Tremblay. In 1964, Gaudias Foster realized his dream by purchasing the territory for approximately $10,000. The company was officially registered on April 2, 1975, under the business name Domaine Chasse & Pêche Gaudias Foster Inc. Over the decades,

Today, Gaudias Foster’s children continue his legacy, with Daniel, the eldest, welcoming fishing and hunting enthusiasts and families looking for a vacation on an exclusive 35 km² territory in Saint-Siméon.
