Hello dear readers,
Maybe you will ask yourselves with such a title, where was I last week-end. This enchanting place is the Auberge Couleurs de France, located in Petite-Nation in the Outaouais Region. This inn is right beside the snowmobile trail entering the Laurentians, close to St-Jovite at Tremblant. It takes 2 hours by car from Montreal and 1 hour 20 minutes from Gatineau.
The welcome
When we arrived at the inn, we saw a large log cabin nearby a lake surrounded by other log cabins. It is worth to see. We had very cold weather during the day, so we were anxious to seek refuge inside. The owner, Jean-Jacques Rech, and his spouse, Léa Rousseau, welcomed us when we came in.
We have been impressed at first sight in the entrance occupied by a fireplace. The natural wood decor brings a rest and relaxation atmosphere. Then, we took possession of our room with fireplace, in a simple and warm decor. To continue our evening, we had a good diner and went by the fireplace to finish it.. .
Various activities
On the premises, you have access to a complete playroom, ice fishing, trapping initiation, dogsled, spa, massage parlour and Scandinavian bath. This activity range should please everyone. Other activities may be added depending on the season..
European snowmobilers
As I was talking with the owner, he told me he had a few snowmobiles available for rent and when Europeans spend a week at the inn, he plans many activities such as a day on snowmobile, a day on dogsled, a day of ice fishing, a day of trapping initiation, and others. It is true to say that visitors from overseas do not get bored during their stay..
An unforgettable stay
Unfortunately, I must leave the inn. If you are looking for a quiet place to rest in a relaxation atmosphere, the Auberge Couleurs de France has the secret to make your stay unforgettable. For more information, please visit their web site www.chaletcouleursdefrance.com..
