Mont Tremblant - Quebec |
|
This cottage rents from Friday - Friday
Breathtaking vistas on the outside and the rich wood and warmth of a traditional log cabin inside greet you at this idyllic location. For a romantic and relaxing break to an activity filled vacation, this cottage has it all.
The log cabin is just that – all log. It is hard to describe the ambiance - suffice to say this is a traditional Quebec cabin with all the comforts of home, from the wonderfully equipped kitchen to the warmth of the woodstove and delightful master bedroom. The loft has mattress sleeping for older children and there is a guest cabin with additional beds. There are books, games and videos for those evenings in, and deck furniture for all that time you will spend outside drinking in the view.
With the 400 lakes of Parc du Tremblant within a few minutes drive, you just know you have arrived at paradise. Canoeing, swimming, cycling, climbing…….the list of activities is endless – and that is just when the snow is not here. In winter, with the busy slopes of Tremblant within 7 minutes; the family ski resort of Mont Blanc the same drive in another direction, and snowshoeing and cross country within the park you will be totally spoiled for choice on an active break. And if you simply want to sit and read and take in the view, the deck is just the place. The photo above on the right shows the beach on the Diable River, just 2 minutes from the cottage; on the left is the river a few minutes into the park, and the centre photo is of Lac Chat, 10 minutes from the cabin.
For a romantic getaway for two or a private family retreat, this beautiful cabin is a magical place. We know our guests will just love this little piece of paradise in the mountains.

Guest Testimonials
"Squirrel's Leap was everything the web site said it would be, and then some. As it turned out, nature decided we needed a real break, so for our seven-day stay, we had rain 95% of the time. The great news is that this cabin in the woods just made our stay more of a cocooning adventure than we had originally hoped for. Listening to the rain pattering on the tin roof, watching the play of the clouds over Tremblant, and the wind mimicking the sound of surf as it grazed the tree leaves, was a wonder. If your spirit longs for heart calm, this is the place. Whether you are blessed with sun or rain, you can feel renewed here. And I had wondered how this marvel had acquired its name, until I actually saw it happen. Sure enough, on the morning of day two, a frisky squirrel jumped from tree branch to tree branch, with the same grace that blesses the rest of this calm harbour." July 2008
