Our beautiful Chalet La Source du Bonheur is located along the Mékinac River in Saint-Joseph-de-Mékinac (Trois-Rives), in the heart of the Mauricie region. Just 1 hour from Trois-Rivières, 2 hours from Québec City, and 2.5 hours from Montréal, it is the perfect place to disconnect in nature with family or friends.

Tout était parfait ! Splendide chalet avec une vue magnifique ! Très confortable. Seul petit commentaire constructif : il serait bien de spécifier le nombre de places dans le spa : Le spa a 4 places alors que nous étions 6. Nous ne pouvions donc pas être dans le spa toutes ensemble.

Le chalet est bien équipé et confortable. L’endroit est très beau et tranquille. La rivière est calme donc facile de s’y baigner (avec des souliers qui vont dans l’eau). Nous avons aussi apprécié nos fin de journée dans le spa, à regarder la rivière.
