I can wholeheartedly recommend staying at this property. The room itself is well set up, enough cutlery and plates for everyone, good WiFi and comfortable beds (there were 4 of us and we fit perfectly, could have fit 1 or 2 more adults easily). But all this is dwarfed by the beauty of the area, exploring Lac Saint-Pierre with the provided watercraft was so much fun! The hosts are also incredibly nice, one night we unfortunately lost power (totally out of the hosts control due to heavy rains in the area). They quickly provided us with water, candles and torches and then proceeded to set us up with a generator. 10/10 looking forward to visiting here again! ##### Rahul P.

Built recently, it is very well designed, modern, and has all that we needed to make meals, play games, relax and sleep comfortably (excellent new AC unit kept us very cool). The kitchen has two induction cooktops that work very well and a counter top oven and microwave. We cooked all our meals there- we had everything we needed. The owners communicate very well. They met us at the loft, toured us and explained how things work. They are incredibly generous providing access to their huge spa, kayaks and paddle boards and providing waterfront access for lounging (we read under the shade of their trees while marvelling at the beautiful lake and tree covered hills). We highly recommend enjoying a holiday on beautiful Lac Saint-Pierre in this splendid loft apartment. ##### David D.

This beautiful spot did just that. The Host and Hostess were warm welcoming. The hosts provided wonderful ideas of adventures in the area We discovered Wakefield and great food. The bakery was our favourite spot. Thank you for a wonderful get away. ##### Johnny C.

The unit, waterfront, landscaping, hot tub are well-maintained and have everything you need. Françoise and Réjean are warm and welcoming, and have made sure to furnish the unit with the small things (books, games, salt & pepper) which is such a nice touch. The space was perfect for the three of us. It was exactly what we were looking for: a quiet and relaxing vacation with our toddler. The unit is very private and we spent a lot of time with our little one on the beach. We had fun using the paddle boards and kayaks. Françoise and Réjean are very kind and thoughtful- making sure the unit met our needs. We will certainly return! ##### Lana M.

They were super helpful with anything that was needed. The vrbo rental is on the same property as the owners but our privacy was well respected at all times. The location is gorgeous right beside a beautiful lake. The drive was easy, although the GPS could be a little misguiding. A lot of activities to do closeby, especially in the summer time. Great hikes and skiing spots in the area are also available. All in all 5 star experience, would definitely go back. Thank you our hosts. ##### Namit G.

Déception de départ car le loft est situé au dessus du garage situé derrière la grande maison des propriétaires et non pas au dessus de la maison tel que les photos le laissent croire ( vue partielle du lac lorsqu'on est dans le loft). Nombreuses contraintes d'utilisation de la zone bord de l'eau et du spa ainsi qu'un horaire précis qui restreint beaucoup la liberté tant souhaitée durant nos vacances ( horaire d'utilisation qui n'était pas mentionné sur le site lors de la location). De plus, comme la zone bord de l'eau est située près de leur maison grandement vitrée, on se sent toujours potentiellement observés. Le gazébo, qui devait nous fournir 2 murs d'intimité selon l'annonce lors de la location, n'était pas là. Résultat: nous ne nous sentions pas très à l'aise d'utiliser la zone en soirée car il n'y a aucune intimité. Nous n'étions pas là pour faire la fête, seulement pour relaxer. Comme nous avions loué pour 1 mois, nous avions avisé les proprios que nous aurions de la visite d'amis. Même cette visite (après 10 jours de location) a causé des problèmes et a provoqué l'ajout de nouvelles règles d'utilisation des installations pour d'autres amis qui viendraient nous rendre visite ( aucun invité ne peut monter au loft, ni utiliser les installations) bref, aucune visite digne de ce nom. C'est à ce moment que nous avons décidé de quitter car nous ne nous sentions vraiment pas bien. Nous sommes restés seulement 13 jours sur place plutôt que un mois que nous avions déjà payé et lorsque mon conjoint a discuté avec les proprios de notre départ, les proprios ont refusé de nous rembourser les 2 semaines non utilisées. Nous savions que nous étions chez les proprios mais nous ne sentions vraiment pas que nous avions une place. On se sentait un peu comme des enfants surveillés par des parents. J'ai 52 ans et mon conjoint a 57 ans. Nous étions là avec mon garçon de 11 ans et nous sommes partis vraiment déçus de n'avoir pu profiter de nos vacances telles que nous les avions imaginées depuis février 2021. Bref, pour toutes ces raisons, nous ne pouvons vous recommander cet endroit. ##### Josée V. Stayed 28 nights in Jul 2021
