Neighbourhood
Our home is located in a typical Quebec village. Without being far from Montreal (since we work and study there every day), we are still in a country village, surrounded by fields and on the edge of Lake Saint-Louis. You will have easy access to numerous nature, cultural and fun activities for adults, young adults, adolescents and children. You can visit the metropolis (Montreal) and discover its cultural, nightlife, historical and even commercial life. The only French-speaking metropolis in North America, Montreal charms with its plural and distinct personality, its flavor both European and American while being resolutely Quebecois.
Within walking distance, you will find the Bernard Séguin-Poirier art gallery and workshop, the Deux grains au moulin café-bakery, the butcher-convenience store, the ice cream shop, restaurants, a bar-terrace at the edge water, a pharmacy, the Les Cèdres river shuttle (tour with animation on the history of the region and the village, but also transport of cyclists from one shore of the lake to the other), rental of kayaks, the possibility of fishing on Lake Saint-Louis, the site of the “Vaporistes de Montréal” with their miniature functional steam or electric trains (which can transport several people - the children love it! -), a magnificent cycle path which runs along the Soulanges canal and which communicates with several others (like that of the Beauharnois canal), the Le Bourd des Cèdres vineyard, children's park, etc.
15 minutes by car: Les Forestiers -de-Saint-Lazare nature park (very beautiful cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails (they rent), outdoor skating, tubing and adventure sports during the summer.
