Having stayed here in 2016, I had an idea of what to expect. The property has since changed hands. On a positive note it does seem that the new ownership is investing in improving some aspects of this park. (new pool and casse-croute). We stayed in the same cabin as 2016 and very little had changed. The TV is no longer in the cabin (21), and the cabin needs a few repairs (leaky bathroom faucet, a burner not working)
Laundry rooms in the park could use a cleanup to remove the cob webs etc. I hope that the new owners will take the time to read this feedback and i also want to say that overall I enjoy the convenience of the location and nearby Quebec City for a family vacation. Would still recommend for a family.
Booked through Expedia, on our arrival day we were running late and they called to tell us they made a map for us of where our cabin was and had the key on the table. Great communication and service
We had a cabin right on the water. It was very quaint and peaceful. I was happy we could take our dogs with us too. We were at the very end of the lot and that may be why our wifi reception was really poor. I would go there again. It's about a half hour drive from Quebec city. Front desk was friendly and helpful and have is directions and tips where to park
A nice, basic 1 bdrm cottage. A couple annoyances ... WIFI was dubious for the period when we wanted to use it. And the sofa (which I think was actually a hide-a-bed) was ridiculously uncomfortable, unless you like sitting at a 20-degree tilt towards the middle. Was far more comfortable to sit on the hard wooden kitchen chair.
Our cabin did not look like any of the ones in the 98 photos on the website - it was filthy and had decor from over 25 years ago (judging by the dates on the magazines that were still in the drawer). The manager said they had recently bought the business and hadn't remodelled all the cabins yet - they obviously haven't cleaned them yet either. "Free toiletries" = shower gel dispenser - not even any handsoap. It was a nice location but a real let down not to get what we thought we'd paid (a rather expensive price) for.
The chalet that was assigned to us must be updated, It was clean but there is a "smell " (smell of old furniture / closet) that lingers in the 3 bedrooms. We had to buy air freshener so we can go in and sleep at night. The beds are not that comfy.

Good chalet property close to Quebec City. Sites are very close together but the view is beautiful. Small chalet and a bit worn. If you are a regular camper this is a good site to go to. Staff was very froendly and helpful and the camp site has been there for quite some time. It’s quite popular locally.
the owners were very accomodating, rented one Chalet, which was too small and they graciously changed it for us . also gave us late check out which accommodated our needs If ever in Quebec city area again, I would definitely book again, Quiet, beautiful views of the lake and Pet Friendly!!
We were pleased with the cabin and the lovely view we had.
The bathroom was spotless thank you for this. The staff were very pleasant. The whole site was lovely and quiet.
The kitchen was well stocked with every kind of pan pot dish that you could imagine! How great is that.
My grandchildren loved feeding the ducks and the squirrels.
Only concern was that the floor was gritty when we came into the cabin. A good sweep helped with that.
The one fan in the bedroom was covered with dust and could not be used for this reason.
Enjoyed the facilities. Barbecue rental could be a bit newer and charcoal
Provided or offer propane model,
Floors could hve been better swept prior to arrival. Overall though it was an excellent location amazingproperty great amenities and a nice cabin. I'd build one withe the same design if I had the chance!
My son enjoyed the play area!
It was a wonderful getaway for us. THE COTTAGE was immaculate view of the lake. We had plenty of dishes and pans. THE BED WAS COMFORTABLE AND WE THROUGHLY ENJOYED OUR STAY. THANK YOU111
My husband and I spent 3 nights in a quaint chalet next to the lake and closest to the wharf. Our French is limited but we were easily accommodated. Any service requests were met quickly and staff were very friendly. We took our (large) dog with us; it is a huge campground (by New Brunswick standards :-) so there was ample room to walk him. Our days were spent in Quebec City; 15-20 min drive. However, there were plenty of services much handier. It was too early to take our canoe and the weather was rainy. But, access to water is easy and the lake looked lovely. We were outside when a plane took off and later landed! The chalet was well stocked and the bed comfortable (with a mirrored ceiling ;-). The bathroom was small (only a shower) but everything worked well. We would certainly return and are thinking a longer stay with our camper/boats should be planned!
Ce reposer a la compagne proche de la grande ville

Für 1-2 Nächte gut
Das Chalet war sehr klein, wahrscheinlich weil wir nur zu zweit waren. Unseres war nicht auf den Bildern.
Es war sauber und der Empfang super. Für 1-2 Nächte ok. Beim Check out war niemand dort und das Büro abgeschlossen, jedoch sollte es offen sein gemäss Öffnungszeiten. Zum Glück kam jemand, er hat dann jemanden angerufen dass das Office besetzt wird.

Chalet un peu vetuste mais éloignés du bruit de la route et à proximité de Montréal. L'environnement près du lac est très agréable. Malheureusement le wifi ne fonctionnait pas dans notre chalet

La situation est intéressante, l'équipement est correct, ....mais c'est SALE ! ....et là, c'est inadmissible.
C'était un beau petit chalet au bord de l'eau mais très désapointé qu'on pouvait pas se baigner. Aussi, nous voulions acheter des verres de terre pour la pêche et personne ne savait oû en acheter.
Séjour au chalet no 11. Chalet très malpropre. Il y avait des excréments sur la porte de la salle de bain. Sauce à spaghetti sur les murs. Portes et comptoirs sales. L'air climatisé était tellement sale que nous avions mal à la gorge. Après investigation, nous avons nettoyé le filtre du mieux qu'on pouvait. Chalet no 11 à côté du casse-croute qui possède un air climatisé très bruyant. Impossible de relaxer. Le bruit est assourdissant. J'ai fait une plainte et j'ai eu la propriétaire qui est venue se plaindre que c'était pas de sa faute qu'elle louait le casse-croûte et le monsieur du casse-croûte qui dit que lui 'il loue' à la propriétaire. L'enfer! Ils se renvoyaient la balle.Ils ont finalement posé un 'mur' pour couper le bruit mais ça marchait pas du tout. Il y avait une odeur de pourri dans le chalet. Il manquait un coude en dessous du lavabo de cuisine. Pas de mitaine de four, pas de BBQ (sur location seulement au charbon), grille-pain qui fonctionne une fois sur 2, kayak ne vaut pas la location à 10$\heure (trop usagé). Chalet très petit. Les photos sont trompeuses. Pas ou peu de commodités.L'emplacement (près de Québec et en face du Lac) est le seul point positif.
