Good to know
Pourvoirie du lac Saint-Pierre is a 100% Québec family business, handed down from father to daughter in 2013 to its current owner, Valéry — one of the rare outfitters in Quebec wholly owned by a woman. Set in Saint-Ignace-de-Loyola in the Lanaudière region, at the mouth of the Lac Saint-Pierre archipelago — a body of water of 103 navigable islands designated a UNESCO protected territory in 2000. The lake stretches more than 32 km, from Berthierville to Trois-Rivières, and is home to 79 fish species (about 70% of Quebec's freshwater species), notably walleye, sauger, pike, smallmouth and largemouth bass, sturgeon
and muskie. It is also a stopover for migratory waterfowl (290 bird species) and shelters the largest heronry in North America. The outfitter runs a fleet of roughly forty boats (22 rowboats, 5 pontoons, 7 fully equipped fishing boats, 10 canoes/kayaks), a 55-slip marina, six cabins and two floating houseboats. Lodging ranges from drive-up cabins to an island cabin (boat access) to a houseboat anchored in the archipelago, alongside guided fishing outings with accredited guides and wildlife-observation tours.
Pourvoirie du Lac Saint-Pierre is a 100% Quebec-owned family business located in Saint-Ignace-de-Loyola. In 2013, the management and ownership of the establishment were passed down from father to daughter to its current owner, Valéry. This transition makes it one of the few outfitters entirely owned and operated by a woman in Quebec. The history of the territory is rooted in the heart of the Lake Saint-Pierre archipelago, where most of the cottages on stilts were built in the late 1920s. This era was marked by the construction of stone dams upstream of the channels to raise the water level of
the shipping lane. The natural beauty of the area and the lives of the islanders also left a mark on Quebec's cultural heritage, having inspired the famous novel *Le Survenant*, written in 1945 by Germaine Guèvrement. Designated a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve in 2000, the archipelago is home to the largest heronry in North America. Over the years, the outfitter has developed around the protection of this exceptional natural environment by initiating a sustainable environmental shift aimed at reducing its ecological footprint while promoting access to the St. Lawrence River.
Lac Saint-Pierre archipelago (UNESCO protected territory), comprising 103 navigable islands and stretching over 32 km between Berthierville and Trois-Rivières.
The ecosystem of the Lake Saint-Pierre archipelago stands out for its significant wildlife diversity. The territory is home to 79 species of fish, representing approximately 70% of the freshwater species found in Quebec. The waters of the lake and the St. Lawrence River are notably home to walleye, sauger, northern pike, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, sturgeon, carp, and muskellunge. Aquatic habitats consist of shallow waters, channels, dense weed beds, and reed edges. Northern pike favor the weed beds of Grande Baie and Baie de l’île de Grâce, as well as submerged tree structures. Walleye and sauger frequent sand and rock
bottoms, submerged stone dams, river mouths, and shipping channels. Bass are concentrated in calm bays, rocky structures, and aquatic vegetation. Composed of wetlands, marshes, and islands subject to spring flooding, the site serves as a natural stopover for migratory birds, hosting up to 290 bird species. The archipelago is home to the largest heronry in North America. Among the avifauna observed in the area are the Great Blue Heron, Green Heron, Black-crowned Night Heron, Great Egret, Bald Eagle, Osprey, Mallard, Green-winged Teal, Caspian Tern, Common Loon, and Belted Kingfisher.
Pourvoirie du Lac Saint-Pierre offers a wide range of water sports, outdoor activities, and vacationing in the heart of the 103-island archipelago of Lake Saint-Pierre on the St. Lawrence River. Sport fishing is the site's flagship activity. Anglers of all skill levels can fish independently or as part of professionally guided outings. The body of water is teeming with sought-after species, including walleye, sauger, northern pike, smallmouth and largemouth bass, sturgeon, muskellunge, and carp. Guided fishing packages include equipment, lures, guiding, and fish cleaning. The establishment also hosts specialized events such as Free Fishing Weekend (Fête de la pêche) and
the Super Walleye Challenge competition. Considered one of the most important boat rental centers in Quebec, the outfitter provides an extensive fleet including motorboats, fully equipped fishing boats, pontoons for groups, canoes, single or double kayaks, and paddleboards. Nature observation and birdwatching play a major role due to the presence of the largest heronry in North America and numerous migratory bird species such as the bald eagle and the great egret. Guided wildlife and historical cruises, as well as self-guided marked water trails (such as Le refuge des oiseaux, Le Sentier du Temps, and L'Archipel Sauvage), allow visitors to explore the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Migration observation cruises are organized in the spring and fall. For groups and corporate clients, the outfitter organizes nautical rallies, friendly fishing tournaments, and corporate retreats in floating cottages. Finally, the season is punctuated by community and family events such as happy hours at the marina, Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day celebrations, and a Halloween activity on the water.

Nous avons passé une fin de semaine dans la yourte à la Pourvoirie du Lac Saint-Pierre et notre séjour a été incroyable ! La yourte était magnifique, très propre et équipée de l'air climatisé, ce qui a rendu notre séjour encore plus confortable. 🏕🤩 Le personnel est accueillant, à l'écoute et toujours prêt à aider. Nous avons adoré l'expérience ! Nous avons profité du bateau, fait un beau feu de camp et créé de merveilleux souvenirs en famille. 🚤🎣 Le rapport qualité-prix est excellent, c'est très abordable et ça vaut vraiment le détour. Nous recommandons cet endroit à 100 % et nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir ! 🏖
