A Wonderful Large Country Home
This property was exactly what we needed for our immediate family to stay at, as we attend a Family Reunion in Lac St. Jean. It was spacious, had the ambiance of a country home and every thing that one could possibly need was provided. We loved it! If we have the opportunity, we would definitely stay there again. Thank you Marc and Marie for your warm welcome!

Maison de rêve
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette maison ancestrale. Malgré son âge, cette belle demeure est super bien équipée que ce soit coté cuisine, service de table, mobilier confortable intérieur et extérieur, literie…. Il ne manque rien. Elle mérite de grandes familles tellement elle regorge de petits salons, cachettes. Bref, des espaces pour tous. Même si nous n’étions que deux nous avons adoré la vieille maison de Xavier. Merci à Marc et Marie d’avoir persévéré dans la préservation de leur patrimoine

Un endroit parfait pour des vacances en famille
La maison est grande, chalereuse et parfaitement équipée. Le lieu est typique et calme et ideal pour découvrir le Lac St Jean et les activités comme le Zoo de St Felicien, qui est top sans oublier le village Val Jalbert - a faire avec des ados et des petits!
