Our property is a Lake Front Oasis on Lac Brochet QC and is perfect for relaxing from the daily stress, especially when the next neighbours are 1.6 km away. One Kajak is available to experience the ca 2km long lake accessed from a dock. The forest is right at our backyard, where hiking, biking, snow shoeing and cross country skiing is possible.
15 min by car to Mt. Sainte Marie Ski area, where in the non snowy season mountain biking is very popular, 17 min to the golf course, or to other lakes like “ Lac du poisson blanc”
On our property is a chicken cube, 6 raised beds, a shed, a tree house and outdoor wood fired sauna.
There’s a pub about 20 min from the cottage in Lac-Sainte-Marie, called „Chez Malo“where you can order Food for Pick up, or dine in. They have a nice porch (Biergarten). Sometimes there play’s a band. Also, there’s a Convenience Store „Marché Ami“. They have all you need, but obviously more pricey than in the city. They prep take out pizza and shawarma.
Our spot is very quiet with lots of nature around perfect to recharge the batteries.
In early summer you see lots of turtles laying eggs in our yard. At night you can sit in two screened gazebos, one on the balcony, and one ground level both facing the lake where you can listen to we believe tree krikets and to calls of the loons. Geese come quite frequently for visits on the lawn, but are pretty shy. We had some summers a ottter family and beavers are always swimming bye busy working.
You will have in our house the whole walkout ground level facing the lake for your use, about 900 sq ft and the upstairs about 1200 sq ft.
Washer/ Dryer is available in the utility room, along with the circuit breaker panel.
The inside was only finished recently, on the outside there is still brick for the facade sitting, but it is only shallow pallets. It won’t hinder your view on the lake much.
Close to the lake, beside the sauna there’s a fire pit.
The inside is pretty much all fully furnished, as we had rented it out on Airbnb before.
A mud room has been added recently, but it’s not quite finished yet in and outside, but the structure is a post and beam log style addition.
There are beautiful sunrises, sometimes in mysterious fog bedded or all covered in snow at some other seasons, every season is breathtaking out there.
