The HALO - SPA Pool Billiards - 25 min from Quebec
Summary:
Le Halo lives up to its name: bathed in light, this chalet with its warm wooden décor is a luminous oasis where the sun will dazzle you from morning to night. With two exterior walls featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, the living space is unique and welcoming. Take advantage of the SPA, pool, sauna and billiards before heading off on an adventure to the wild Bras-du-Nord Valley or picturesque Old Quebec!
The Space:
Here are 3 THINGS PEOPLE LOVE about our home:
1 - OUTDOOR activities AT PROFUSION nearby!
The Bras-du-Nord Valley (20 min from the chalet) is a pure outdoor destination! When you think of mountain biking in Quebec, its name naturally comes to mind! 100 km of "singletrack" mountain biking, from beginner to advanced.
In addition, it offers one of the most extensive networks of hiking trails in Quebec. With its 80 km of developed and marked trails, a wide range of choices is available to you depending on your level and the type of hike you desire.
Finally, the Bras-du-Nord River offers a beautiful territory for canoeing and kayaking, the Valley's pioneer family activity. You will come across fine sandy beaches along the way, allowing you to dock if necessary and enjoy the sumptuous scenery. A 17.5 km escapade to be explored!
Golf lovers, discover Le Grand Portneuf, a magnificent 27-hole course adjacent to the Domaine! Bordered by the Portneuf River and set in a landscape of valleys and hills: a natural beauty.
Come and discover the beauty of this beautiful region!
All the details concerning these activities will be given to you before your arrival.
Not to mention that you are only 25-40 minutes from Quebec City: stores, boutiques, restaurants, architecture, Old Quebec, etc.
You will have access to the best of both worlds!
2 - A domain offering an inspiring environment for TAKING IT EASY while enjoying COMMON FACILITIES, just like at the hotel.
The Domaine du Grand Portneuf is an exceptional resort to get away and recharge your batteries. After a walk along the shaded paths leading to the Portneuf River, enjoy the heated pool or relax in the all-season sauna and jacuzzi. Then, enjoy "l'apéro" in the central hall while playing a game of pool before retiring to the privacy of your cottage.** In addition, about 100 meters from the central hall, you will find an outdoor playground for your children to enjoy.
Please note that this is not a hotel and that there are no employees on site to welcome you or answer your specific requests.
In order for you to enjoy the hot tub in privacy, you must go to the central hall (30 seconds walk from your chalet) to reserve your time slots. A binder is reserved for this purpose. In order for everyone to enjoy the hot tub, each chalet can reserve a 30 minute time slot per day. The central hall is adjacent to the hot tub, swimming pool and sauna. Please note that the pool is operational from June to September, while the hot tub and sauna are open all year round :)
🟢 Respect for nature at Domaine du Grand Portneuf
Please note that grass maintenance around the chalets is deliberately limited. The Domaine prioritizes preserving the natural beauty of the site and wishes to minimize noise pollution caused by lawnmowers. This eco-friendly choice helps to provide a peaceful environment in harmony with nature.
3 - A MODERN, REFINED and COMFORTABLE cottage
Whether you're relaxing in the living room or sitting around the large kitchen counter with your guests, you can appreciate the natural beauty offered by the generous windows, and this, while feeling well surrounded.
🚨 Damage Protection – Peace of Mind Included 🚨
To offer you a seamless experience, accidental damage protection is included through a fixed nightly amount.
It replaces the traditional security deposit and covers eligible accidental damages up to USD $50,000 for qualifying stays.* Very few properties offer this level of protection.
The result:
✔️ No security deposit required
✔️ A simple and structured process in case of an incident
✔️ A smooth, elegant, and worry-free experience
Because true luxury also means peace of mind. 😇
Although the protection generally replaces the security deposit, we reserve the right to require an additional deposit in specific situations evaluated on a case-by-case basis. This measure remains rare and preventive.
*Certain conditions and exclusions apply. Details available upon request.
Let's move on to the main advantages offered by this home:
- 100 Mbps and plus high-speed WIRELESS INTERNET!
- Cable TV (CBC, CTV...) and SMART TV in the living room allowing the broadcasting of your subscriptions NETFLIX, YouTube and other apps. You'll find a Nintendo Mini with 30 built-in games: classics that little and big kids alike will love ;-)
- Wall-mounted air conditioning unit
- Well-equipped kitchen with DISHWASHER, 2 coffee machines (Keurig and filter), fondue pot... and plenty of work space to cook
- Large counter-dining table for 4 people
- 2 bedrooms with comfortable queen size bed. The bedrooms are opposite each other, so more privacy ;-)
- Sofa bed in the living room, perfect for 2 children or an adult...
- Washer and dryer: very practical when you stay several days
- Large patio with BBQ and patio set. Please note that the BBQ is operational from May to October inclusively
- 2 parking spaces
- etc., etc., etc.

Amazing
Beautiful clean cottage, great location (within 1 hour drive from all attractions). We were a family of 6, my husband and I, our 2 kids (8 and 11) and my parents, we all enjoyed our stay. Very recommended
Great house. Quiet peaceful location. Easy access to highway, groceries, gas. Enjoyed shooting pool in the community room.

Lovely Cottage
I stayed at the cottage for 2 nights/3days with my family. Right from the start, Karl was such an incredible host: open communication, fast replies, and accurate instructions. Cottage is stunning, great location (nearesr supermarket is 7 mins away), perfectly clean, really well decorated and has all the utensils youll need to cook.
We enjoyed every bit of our stay, and will definitely be back :)

Spectacular spot!
Our time here was absolutely spectacular. The whole family loved it. The pool, hot tub, and sauna were perfect and we used them every day - even when it was raining. The small home fit our family of six perfectly and the tall windows made it feel like we were living outside. What a special place! Well definitely be returning.

Commençons par les améliorations. Le lit de la chambre passé la salle de lavage est vraiment très mou. L’évier de la salle de bain drainait à peine donc on a utilisé celui de la salle de lavage. La maison était très propre mais certaines choses laissaient à désirer à l’extérieur. De plus les coins sont tournés ronds dans la salle de bain. La propriété est absolument splendide avec les grandes portes de chaque côté. L’environnement est tellement apaisant avec toute cette forêt. L’organisation au niveau piscine et SPA était parfaite. Très bel environnement. A refaire!

Très agréable séjour dans ce logement fidèle à l’annonce . Sauna en réparation mais il faisait déjà bien chaud . Piscine et jacuzzi très agréable ! Attention parfois il faut réserver sur un cahier si vous voulez privatiser uniquement en famille et vérifier que personne ne la fait avant d’y aller . Sinon top !

Bel endroit pour y séjourner
Beaucoup d'accessoires disponibles et tout est confortable à l'exception du matelas de la chambre d'invité qui est trop mou et qui fait le rond aux endroits ou nous sommes couchés. La luminosité est incroyable et plusieurs activités de disponible tout près.
