The legend of the rock that makes you dream…
A long time ago, an Amerindian named Magwando used to sit on a rock and listen to the silence… So, it is no coincidence that the Hotel Sacacomi is built right there. It is meant to make you dream… Today, the 4-star haven of peace, winner of many Québec Grand Prix du Tourisme, makes you revive the legend. Nature, quietness, relaxation and serenity are much-valued here.

Our visit…
As soon as we arrive on our snowmobile, we understand that tranquility prevails here; a sign indicates that snowmobiles must be kept inside the provided area to avoid traffic near the hotel and spa.
A short walk of 200 m on boardwalks takes us to the hotel.
The first glimpse is just magic, log building, stone fireplace, rest area…
We can feel the relaxation and completeness ambience right on our first steps. The smell of the fireplace is soothing and welcoming. We can easily imagine how pleasant it must be to work in such an environment, which explains the impressive calm shown by the employees at the front desk. Courteous, polite and considerate, it took them just a few seconds to give us our key and informations about the various activities available on the site.
Like anywhere else in the hotel, the rooms release inspiring tranquility. The natural wood used everywhere absorbs the possible noises and gives all the space to silence. It is all set up for relaxation. And what a view from the balcony overlooking the Lake Sacacomie… Breathtaking!!!
As we were walking towards the hotel restaurant, we could not help looking all around the place. Many small living rooms are available for relaxation by yourself or with friends, always in a natural and charming decor…
Exclusive gastronomy?…
It is absolutely impossible not to talk about the gastronomy offered here. Everyone will find his favorite dishes, such as wild meat, seafood, duck, salmon, etc… How delicious ! With the wide variety of entrees and main dishes, we explored the different specialties on the menu. Just divine ! The food was cooked as we wished and the dish presentation was just mouth-watering. The service was offered by smiling and skilled employees who know the menu. They gave us some advices that were very appreciated.
The spa…
Even if we did not have enough time to get in the different baths, the manager allowed us to take pictures of the installations during our visit.
A few minutes later, we felt sorry that we did not book for an additional day. The natural decor is so enchanting. Look at these pictures and imagine…
Our stay has been more than exceptional. Special thanks to Micheline Rancourt and Praskovia Kourbatoff for their warm hospitality.
Snowmobilers, wilderness lovers, sportpersons, you must plan to stay at the Hotel Sacacomie during your next trip.
