Just a few minutes from the famous Village Vacances Valcartier, this house is perfect for travellers who want a quiet and friendly place, as well as proximity to the biggest attractions for sightseeing.
Waking up in nature every morning, visiting Old Quebec in the same day, going home to dinner with friends and enjoying an outdoor fire or in the fireplace of the house, that`s the agenda waiting for you! Villa St-Leon is vast and warm. You will find all the amenities for cooking, as well as bedding and bath towels. Note that the BBQ is only available during the summer season.
Surrounded by giant trees, near a river, your stay will be a perfect balance between the outdoors and urban life. 30 minutes from Old Quebec, you can easily drive to the heritage sites not to be missed, and enjoy the nature decor of your travel home. Ideal for groups of friends, families, or even lake-to-shoulder business meetings, the house is vast and allows everyone to retreat lonely or to experience an unforgettable holiday as a group.

Plus, in a few minutes by car, you can enjoy many resort experiences, such as a day at Le Castor Golf Course, a visit to the Ice Hotel, a rafting experience, or a day at the magnificent Aroma Spa. The Valcartier military base is also accessible to visitors, through the Le Castor center.

The location is very very close to the Valcartier Resort. The house was not clean properly. No washer and dryer. Missing towels for showers. No dish cloths, no soap, the hous is ver very old. The light outside the house did not work. You can’t deal the temperature in the house there is no thermostat. We left on the fourth day with all itchiness. They have some bed bugs. Almost in every bed. Its been a week since our vacation ended. The whole family had little red bumps on or body. The itchy went away afterwards. So be aware.
Bel endroit, nous avons été très bien.
Il faisait un peu chaud dans les chambres, mais c'était quand même agréable.
Je proposerais d'installer plus de crochets, ou un porte-manteau pour qu'on puisse accrocher nos effets personnels. De plus, les couteaux seraient à aiguiser, car ils ne coupaient pas très bien. Aussi, une planche à découper serait un atout majeur. Je propose également un bac de recyclage à l'intérieur. Et une autre idée serait d'installer des bacs "consginés québec", l'argent amassé avec les canette irait directement à votre organisme visant à aider les jeunes et serait de pair avec la valeur environnementale.
Voilà :) je n'hésiterai pas à recommander cette location dans l'avenir.
La maison est bien mais le plancher dans la cuisine était très collant, la propreté laissait à désirer. Certaines choses auraient été utiles. Il manquait des items adéquats pour un bon séjour:
-Aucune coupe de vin
-Aucun ustensile pour cuisiner sur le BBQ et rien pour nettoyer les grilles
-Aucun briquet pour allumer le BBQ
-Pas de papier d'aluminium
-Pas de gros bol pour la salade
C'était aussi très frais et humide dans le chalet malgré la température à 28 degrés dehors. Nous savons que c'est difficile à gérer mais un déshumidificateur serait très important.
Nous avons adoré séjourner à la Villa St-Léon puisque la grandeur des pièces est parfaite pour des réunions de groupe. Les chambres sont spacieuses et la façon dont elles sont disposées dans la maison permet une intimité.
