We really enjoyed our stay. The lake is truly amazing, as the opposite side borders on a national park, so you have a natural view of hills and forest. Having full access to kayaks, a canoe, a rowboat and a float-eh (love that thing!) just bumped it up to incredible. I often just hung out on the gravity chair at the end of the dock, reading my book and looking up at the vista. My brother tried to fish but only caught two sticks. (We never saw a fish!)The lake is incredibly clear and shallow for a good stretch. On the weekend, there were tons of families around having fun and making a ruckus.
The house is set on a hill, separate from the lake but with private access from a chalet which remains empty, I assume owned by the same owners. Because it is the only house up there it is super quiet and peaceful. The view of the lake is spectacular. Loons at night and so many stars...
We really had absolutely everything we needed. From salt, olive oil, and spices to firewood and beach towels. I really could have brought less.
For those wary of the two minute walk up the hill from the lake, we just caved and drove the car down! Lazy yes, not very ecological too but my thighs thanked me.
Rejean (the host) has a very detailed information booklet explaining everything you need to know or wonder about, including pictures to help you identify things. We never needed to bother him at all. Great host!
Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour. Le lac est vraiment incroyable, car le côté opposé borde un parc national, vous avez donc une vue naturelle sur les collines et la forêt. Avoir un accès complet aux kayaks, à un canoë, à une barque et à un flotteur (j'adore ce truc!) C'est devenu incroyable. Je traînais souvent sur la chaise de gravité au bout du quai, lisant mon livre et regardant la vue. Mon frère a essayé de pêcher mais n'a attrapé que deux bâtons. (Nous n'avons jamais vu de poisson!) Le lac est incroyablement clair et peu profond pendant une bonne partie. Le week-end, il y avait des tonnes de familles qui s'amusaient.
La maison est située sur une colline, séparée du lac mais avec un accès privé depuis un chalet qui reste vide, je suppose appartenant aux mêmes propriétaires. Parce que c'est la seule maison là-haut, c'est super calme et paisible. La vue sur le lac est spectaculaire. Des huards la nuit et tant d'étoiles...
