Welcome to the lake
Ride straight from the residence onto the great snowmobile circuits of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean and the Monts Valin.
The residence hosts groups in comfort: five bedrooms, two kitchens, wide gathering spaces and an indoor spa to recover after a day on the trails. Plowed parking for the trailers, a heated space to dry your gear and a late Sunday checkout when possible — everything is set up so the group rides early and rests well.

A different escape every season
Big days on the trails, warm evenings inside — here is what is waiting right outside the door.
Winter in the snow
Ride off from the chalet and reach Québec's groomed snowmobile network in minutes, then thaw out in the hot tub as snow settles on the pines. Clear winter nights bring some of the best stargazing — and sometimes the northern lights — you'll ever see.

The location
Far from routine, close to adventure
From Brise du Lac, set out across the big waters of Lac Tchitogama and the Péribonka. Walleye, northern pike and landlocked salmon live in this vast country of cliffs, deep bays and boreal landscapes. Back home, the spa and the comfort of the residence are waiting.

Families, friend groups, couples and snowmobilers keep coming back. Read their stories — then add your own below.
“The view from the great room is unreal — we barely left the windows. The kids lived on the dock and in the kayaks. Spotless, well-equipped, and the hosts thought of everything.”
“Rode the sleds right from the driveway onto the trail every morning, then straight into the hot tub at night. Bucket-list winter weekend with eight friends. We'll be back.”
“Big enough for three families and still felt cozy. Sunsets over the lake were the highlight of the trip. Fishing off the dock kept the kids busy for hours.”
“We came for a quiet couples' getaway and got the most beautiful stargazing of our lives. Saw the northern lights from the deck. Truly magical spot.”
“Ice-fished in the morning, snowshoed in the afternoon, hot tub at night. The wood fireplace made the whole place smell like a real cabin. 10/10.”
“Gorgeous property and an easy, friendly check-in. Loved working from the loft with that view between calls. Bring layers in the fall — the mornings are crisp!”
