The establishment has entered a modernization phase under the direction of new owners, who carry out regular improvements and investments to elevate the level of comfort offered to guests while preserving the wild character of the estate. Throughout its evolution, the outfitter has developed a fleet of self-sufficient off-grid cottages bordering the lakes. Recent developments include the construction of new accommodation units and the addition of contemporary amenities, such as air conditioning and Starlink

My husband and I always look forward to our stays here! The property is absolutely beautiful and peaceful, the ideal place to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It is secluded, but Wi-Fi is available if needed, even though it's so nice to unplug and enjoy nature. What I particularly appreciate is that there is something for everyone. My husband likes to hunt, while I love to fish, relax by the lake, read, and admire the scenery. With a wide choice of cabins and lakes, everyone will find the ideal option for a successful getaway. The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming, and always ready to do whatever it takes to make your stay enjoyable. You can feel that they truly care about their guests. I highly recommend this place and I'm already looking forward to going back every time!

If you're looking to escape everyday life, this is the ideal place. The accommodation is top quality. I hunted bear in the spring and it was simply incredible. I also had the opportunity to fish for lake trout and I wasn't disappointed. Your hosts truly care about your well-being. It's a wilderness area of exceptional beauty. I certainly hope to go back next spring.

Since the new owners took over the business, we've been bringing our whole family here several times a year. My kids are constantly asking me when we'll go back. The customer service is exceptional: the owners are extremely friendly and always ready to help. The cabins are beautiful and the view is breathtaking. The new cabins are equipped with air conditioning and a shower, a real plus for a family with young children. I highly recommend this establishment.
