⭐ The Marco-Polo of Portneuf: Open on nature 🔭 Private SPA, Pool, Sauna ⭐

Come and explore one of the most beautiful playgrounds in Quebec (Portneuf) in this comfortable, modern and rustic cottage located in the DOMAINE DU GRAND PORTNEUF! Experience the Norwegian hot tub and its cedar scent, followed by a short nap in the hammocks near the forest. Take advantage of the many attractions offered by the domain: heated pool, sauna, jacuzzi, billiard, walking trails, etc. Plan a trip to the wild Bras-du-Nord Valley or the picturesque Old Quebec!

Here are 3 THINGS PEOPLE LOVE about this northern cottage away from the everyday:

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 spa. Then, enjoy "l'apéro" in the central hall while playing a game of pool before retiring to the privacy of your cottage.**

Please be advised that this is not a hotel and that there are no employees on site to welcome you or answer your specific requests.

The pool is operational from June to September, while the SPA and sauna are open all year round :)

3 - A chalet with a QUIET and NATURAL DECOR

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.

Let's move on to the main advantages offered by this home:

Great spot to unwind
We loved our stay here. The community pool and hot tub were great for us and our 6 year d, and the chalet was very comfy with everything we needed. The location was nice as it was far away enough to feel private, but close enough to do many things. The river nearby was truly beautiful and a great place to hike.

Relaxing family getaway
Our stay at this property was very comfortable as we had everything we needed and more (yurt snd jacuzzi were great!) in a modern and clean chalet. The property manager was very responsive to answer our questions. The location is fantastic in the heart of nature, and at the same time with all the amenities nearby such as grocery, bakery, pharmacy, etc. I would definitely come back here and I recommend this property.

VBN Mountain Bike Trip
A fantastic stay! Before our arrival the property manager was great to answer questions and concerns so our stay was problem free. We knew exactly what to expect and what to pack. The property was what we expected on arrival and everything was in good working order. Use of the common pool and spa on site was easy and we felt comfortable there. The location was perfect for mountain biking and exploring. The VBN trails were a short dive away and the towns of Pont Rouge and St Raymond had all the amenities and recreation facilities we wanted. The chalet was a comfortable space for 2 groups to share. Privacy was no problem with the upstairs and downstairs bedrooms. The open area of the kitchen/dining/living room was perfect for socializing. The yurt was really cool. It provided an extra space to relax. Soaking in the barrel hot tub was a great way to end a day of riding. Highly recommend this property!

The best!
My friends and I had a great time at this stay. The house was beautifully decorated, the hot tub was a huge hit, we went into it every night. The place was very clean and they provided everything you would need for your stay home-wise. Anytime we had any questions Yannick was very quick to answer, regardless of the time. Definitely recommend and we will definitely be staying here again when we return to Quebec.
