Golden Hour - rustic, cozy, and peaceful cottage for nature lovers

FOR NATURE LOVERS. Feel the need for a little peace & quiet and relaxation in nature, far from the city? The Golden Hour is the perfect rustic cottage for a getaway with your loved ones or your friends! Enjoy the surrounding forests, the spacious deck, magnificient views and private lake access, and unforgettable sunsets. Close by: Lake Taureau and its fabulous beaches, Sept-Chutes Regional Park and its amazing hiking trails, as well as Mastigouche wildlife reserve. EV plug available.

The Golden Hour blends rustic charm with modern comfort. THERE’S NO WIFI OR TV, and cellphone service is not the best—but that’s part of the magic. Take a break from technology and enjoy the great outdoors and all the activities around the cottage!

Kids can run freely in the large yard while adults relax on the spacious terrace. A private path leads to the lake, where you can swim, unwind on your own small beach, watch the sunset from the dock, or explore the lake with on a kayak or a pedal boat (3 season only - see below for winter activities). Several beautiful parks, hiking areas, and snowshoe/ski areas are only a short drive away.

The living spaces have everything you need to feel at home: 3 bedrooms (one king, one double, and two single beds), a bright bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a cozy dining area, and a comfortable living room. Water comes from a natural artesian well and waste is managed by a septic system.

Guests have access to the entire property and all the equipment that is found in or near the cottage. Write to the host Sophie or her husband Mehdi at anytime during your stay if you need help!
