Well positonned property with all amenities available. Only feedback would be to fix the deck and remove broken items - such as the Adirondack chairs and swing.

A great place for a big group!

We had a wonderful stay, the house had everything we needed for our large family and the grounds were so comfortable and fun. The views of the river are outstanding, and exploring the river was a dream. I highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful evenings overlooking the river

The thing we enjoyed the most about this property was the deck in the evening. The deck faces the river and we found it quite enjoyable to watch the boats going by. The river is not very large at this point which makes it a calm and swimable. On the weekends the boating traffic can be fairly substantial but it subsides in the late evening and at night the area is very quiet. The house was clean and well kept and had all the amenities listed. This property is also located in a very beautiful area. Close to town and close to a few beaches such as lac echo and site de la plage at poisson blanc if swimming off the dock is not your thing. The paddle boat unfortunately was broken, the paddles for the canoe were in very bad shape and the row boat which had been listed in the amenities list and sported in the picture is broken and totally not functional. The host was advised and he noted that he would remedy the situation right away so the next visitors should not have those problems. Still, it was a disappointment for the family not to have been able to be out on the water as expected.

Amazing location but needs some attention.

We recently stayed at this chalet and had a mixed experience. Starting with the positives: this would be an incredible place in the summer! The view is stunning, with a peaceful lake, private dock, and serene forest surroundings. The large lot is perfect for families, offering trails and plenty of outdoor games and activities for kids and adults alike. It’s truly a picturesque and relaxing retreat.However, our winter stay came with some challenges. Being a country chalet that isn’t lived in full-time, mice were an issue. While we understand this is almost unavoidable in rural settings, the mice were particularly active at night, especially in the basement, and their noise disrupted sleep for those staying there.Additionally, we rented this chalet specifically because the listing said it had a hot tub, but there wasn’t one. This was a major letdown, as we passed on other properties for this feature, and it significantly impacted our stay. Soaking in a hot tub after winter activities was something we’d all been looking forward to, so its absence was disappointing.On a positive note, the host, Abe, was very kind and quick to respond. He acknowledged the mistake about the listing and offered a resolution, which we appreciated. Despite the challenges, the chalet’s setting is stunning, and it would be an amazing spot for a summer getaway. Future renters may want to confirm all amenities beforehand to avoid similar issues

A notre arrivée, le chalet est très propre et sent bon. Facile d'y accéder. Tous les lits sont confortables. Par contre, c'etait décevant considerant que nous étions uniquement des femmes et nous n'avons pas pu bénéficier des embacations, puisque tout était en haut et difficile à descendre. Pas d'endroit convenable avec de l'omble pour profiter de l'extérieur et avec une chaleur intense, la climatisation n'était pas suffisante. Il faisait 28 degrés dans le chalet pour dormir et tres humide au sous-sol. De plus,les photos sur le site ne représentent pas la réalité de l'endroit.Les souris dérangent énormément le sommeil des personnes qui dorment au sous-sol. Et lodeur durine d'animaux s'intensifie avec la chaleur et les journées qui passentLes appareils ménagers fonctionnaient plus ou moins, poêle 3 ronds sur 4 fonctionnent et le BBQ difficile de voir l'intensité du feu car les boutons des brûleurs ne sont pas bien représentés.

Séjour chalet

Il était écrit avec air climatisé. Mais il a fait tellement chaud que c était désagréable et pas endurable. Il faisait 29-30 degré dans la maison même avec l air climatisé.
