About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Family Friendly including the 4 legged ones (pet friendly)

This pet friendly cottage in la Minerve, less than 45 minutes from Mont Tremblant offers you a private setting with a patio overlooking the lake. Comfortably accommodates 8 with several private sitting areas for "alone time" and family areas for dinners together.

Ideal for a family or couple looking for a quiet getaway to enjoy kayaking (2 kayaks) and/or canoeing on the lake and river. If you love hiking in the woods then you only need to step outside the property as it borders the 2nd largest forest reserve in Quebec.

Beautiful chalet, gorgeous lake and garden
Visited with our kids 6 and 9. They loved jumping into the water and swimming to the small beach (over and over). Kayaking was also great. The lake water is crystal clear. Very large chalet, with extensive garden. Exceeded expectations. Great trip.

Excellent hosts and great waterfront getaway
Hosts were phenomenal with communication and making sure we enjoyed our stay. From early check-in to late check-out, to treats awaiting us on arrival. Lots of amenities including everything for the bathroom, some first aid supplies, and many towels (beach and bathroom). The basement area is not pictured but it is excellent with two double beds and a bunk bed, tv, bathroom, and laundry facilities. In the extreme heat, our friends slept down there with their 3yo and dog and they stayed nice and cool. A portable a/c unit, fans, and air purifiers kept the main floor pretty cool during the day but there was a surprisingly cool breeze through the windows as soon as the sun went down. We stayed while it was 35-40 degree temps during the day and air quality advisories due to forest fires... and we're so happy we were at the cottage instead of in the city! We were quite comfortable! The screened deck was our primary dining room, with a nice breeze and protection from mosquitos and deer flies. We used the 2 kayaks every day and the canoe once (but it actually is in disrepair and probably shouldn't be used unless fixed). The lake is super calm and easy to explore and the sandy beach entry is great for getting out and swimming from shore... we made great use of the pool noodles! Would not hesitate to recommend.

Pure Paradise
Our stay was absolutely fantastic. The hosts Nathalie and William were incredible -- they answered every question very promptly and even went above and beyond to ensure that our drive up and arrival was a smooth one. The cottage itself was paradise. The setting on such a quiet road meant little worries of cars or noise and the garden was a delight. What isn't highlighted in the photos (but should be) were the two great entry points into the lake -- one small sandy area and another one with wooden steps. This made it very easy for our pup to get in and out (which she did often), not to mention for the humans as well. William and Nathalie even have the place equipped with dog life jackets! Pleasantly surprised by how many places there were around the property to lounge and the deck was close enough to keep a clear view on our dog in the lake, which was a bonus. Everything from the extra care taken for check-in, to the bottle of wine kindly left for us, this was truly a wonderful experience thanks to Nathalie and William. Will absolutely stay there again!

Beautiful, Charming And Picturesque
My family had such a wonderful time at this charming home on a gorgeous lake. The house is lovely in every way and well-equipped. The views are spectacular. The hosts are warm, attentive people. There is plenty to do. We just returned from our summer trip and went out on kayaks each day - literally just steps outside the house and provided for the guests. Hiking is great in the area as well. And the garden is well-maintained and a perfect touch. This is such a great place to just slow down and spend time relaxing. Finally, there is plenty of wildlife to see all around. We spotted wild turkeys, humming birds, and beautiful butterflies. Our children loved the ducks. This is a fantastic home. We already miss it and are already planning to return.

Week at the perfect cottage
We had an amazing time at the cottage. The area is beautiful with great hiking, the garden and the view from the deck is amazing. The cottage is very comfortable and feels like home. It is equipped with everything you will need and the beds are very comfortable. The entire property is fenced, so amazing property for relaxing without worrying about your dog. The hosts go above and beyond to ensure you have a great stay. We had a great experience and loved every minute at cottage.

Tranquil paradise
What a great place for a relaxing waterfront stay! The location is amazing! 2 of the bedrooms overlook the lake, which was a great view to wake up to. The patio off the living room is where we spent most of the time, from meals (we had to bring a larger table out for those) and morning coffee to quiet reading and afternoon cocktails. The view is simply amazing. We went out kayaking every day, the kid spent most of the day in the water with pool noodles, and some of the adults ventured out for a swim a few times. We had our 2 cats with us, and both very much enjoyed exploring the property on a harness. There is a lot of wildlife, we were daily visited by chipmunks, birds and a groundhog came to say hi a few times. I would not recommend letting cats run loose. The main floor of the cottage is cat-safe, and we didn't let them go into the basement. The cottage itself is clean, very well equipped. We only used the 3 bedrooms upstairs, but there's more room in the basement. WiFi quality is very good. The kitchen is rather small for a large group, but who wants to spend a lot of time in the kitchen on vacation anyway? The only recommendation I would make is adding a separate pantry in the mudroom. We were really struggling with space for all the food we brought for 9 days. The gardens need a special mentioning - absolutely stunning. William and Nathalie are great hosts, a pleasure to deal with. I had a million questions before the stay, and they were always quick to respond. Overall, this is one of the best cottages we stayed at, and would definitely consider returning.

Excellent summer vacation
We rented for 5 weeks this summer. Beautiful perennial garden and fenced yard to keep the deer out. Did I mention lots of deer... Place exactly as described. Internet is excellent, bed super comfortable and quiet neighbours. A piece of paradise by the water. William and Nathalie were great hosts, followed up promptly but never felt too pushy. Cottage was well equipped with anything you could need. Hiking from the cottage was good, with many trails including belvedere sentier trailhead just 300 metres away. Fantastic mountaintop view of the area (highly recommended). The water fountain and pond were a highlight, as were the amazing sunrises. Our cat was definitely in his element. Couldn't ask for more.

Cozy cottage on a beautiful lake
Our family stayed at this cozy cottage over March break. The view is great, right over a frozen lake that a family of deer would cross every evening. The fireplace is right in the middle of the living room and open on the sides, which makes it feel especially cozy. The hosts William and Nathalie were very easy to reach and very generous- they helped with instructions on getting there, left a great gift on the dining table and wee very responsive with any questions. There are lots of entertainment options for kids, including Disney+ on a big t.v. Outdoor activities in the area include a nice snowshoe path in the woods by a meandering river as well as cross-country skiing in town or in nearby Labelle. Beds are comfortable, and the kitchen is very well stocked for anyone who loved cooking or bake. Overall, we had a really enjoyable March break at the cottage and won't hesitate to return!

William and Nathalie's property was the perfect getaway. Their cottage is located on a lake and offers the most breathtaking views. The porch was one of the highlights of our stay as it offered this same view of the lake for our morning coffee, afternoon/evening drinks, and also for the most unbelievable stargazing at night. Canoe/kayak excursions were a daily activity and the water was like glass; even the shoreline was perfect and has clear water and a sandy bottom. Our dog was welcomed and enjoyed the lake for swimming, and then roasting by the fire both indoors and out. When we arrived we were met by a pre-built fire for us, with kindling and logs in place. These additional touches are what made our stay here even more enjoyable. All of our essential needs were met including but not limited to: a variety of coffee to select from, a full kitchen, cleaning/sanitizer supplies, clean and comfortable bedding, wifi and tv access for the night, boardgames, and bedrooms with views of the lake. We were comfortable, and the check in and out process was a breeze. Would recommend this rental to anyone who is looking for a peaceful getaway in a beautiful cottage.

Merveilleux !!
Nous avons passé un séjour magique dans le chalet de Bill et Nathalie! La maison de style cottage anglais et son jardin sont splendides. L’environnement est très intime et le lac magnifique, très agréable pour la baignade même s’il y a des embarcations à moteur. L’accueil de nos autres était fantastique et ils nous ont aidés avec une bienveillance incroyable quand nous avons eu un gros soucis avec notre petit chat. Une maison dans laquelle on se sent bien, relax, avec tout le confort nécessaire. Le jardin est un gros plus, paisible, en plus du lac. Un gros merci, nous reviendrons c’est certain !
