You drop your luggage in the walk-in closet of your sweet (suite ;-) room, followed by a freshening up in your luxurious bathroom, and then prepare your favorite cocktail in the friendly kitchen. Your guests are about to arrive: light the gas fireplace and set the table for a warm and inviting atmosphere. Now everything is in place for a memorable evening before your next day's excursion to the wild Bras-du-Nord Valley or picturesque Old Quebec!
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 away from the many attractions of Quebec City: stores, boutiques, restaurants, architecture, Old City, 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.**
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 (5 min 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 :)
