Our 4-season cottage nestled in the hills of Chertsey Quebec. From Dorval, the journey is 75 minutes (105 km). With tons of snow in the winter it is strategically located near 4 ski resorts (St-Come, Garceau, the Reserve and Montcalm). Lots of activities to do: spas, snowmobile trails / mountain bikes and nearby national parks (Tremblant and Oureau). The cottage has access to a private beach and has a private dock on Lake Lise and has 13km of private hiking trails on the banks of rivière Oureau Enjoy little nature hikes around our cottage. There is an outdoor fireplace where you can light a fire (the wood is not provided and must be bought locally). There is also a four-season hot tub for you to relax in and a private dock. You have access to the entire cottage with its 13KM of hiking trails. There is also a private beach 300m away. A quick reminder that this is a servitude to access the lake (absolutely no motorized vehicles allowed) and that you are passing through the property of my neighbors.
