Although it’s only a 15-minute drive from Mont Tremblant, the backhouse feels like a secluded oasis among the trees. It is a 10-minute walk from Lac Long and a 5-minute drive from Rivière Rouge, where you can relax on the beaches and rent canoes or kayaks in summer.

The house has two bedrooms, each with a queen-size bed, making it the perfect place to stay for two couples or a small family. The design of the house allows you to feel completely immersed in nature – the rooms intentionally have no blinds or curtains, to maximize natural light and views. However, there are large wooden shutters on the exterior of the house which can be adjusted to your liking.
