Auberge du Lac-à-l'Eau-Claire

It’s a funny place, lacking a bit in atmosphere but beautiful setting. Stuff are hit and miss, some great, others less so. The Pavilion room we had was huge but actually not very practical, no hooks, nowhere to hang things. We ended up with wet clothes and it was a struggle to dry them and not even anywhere to hang towels so the room ended up a total mess with things draped everywhere. But it was comfortable and quiet although the window in the room didn’t shut (there was a mosquito shield). That said, I didn’t mention it to reception. Restaurant was good for lunch/dinner, good choice and lovely view over the lake. Breakfast wasn’t great, I found the choice poor, items weren’t restocked, it was fine and we didn’t have a choice but not brilliant. Activities, we went fishing, bear watching, kayaking and played tennis. Would recommend them all.

Overall a very good stay in a beautiful place. To be improved : breakfast quality could be upgraded . Not at the level of dinner . Swimming pool: need to upgrade facility for aged people . We had to assist twice old women who could not get out of the pool alone. A simple addition of handrail could help. Nice staff , all gentles , in particular the manager of the equipment’s rental shop, professional and friendly. I found the landing and taking off of seaplanes right in front , amazing but may be dangerous for the people canoeing around.

Superb location but lacking in ambiece. Could do with staff who like dealing with people on reception, which is where first impressions count, but dining room servers friendly enough. Breakfast disappointing and dinner not gastronomic, just over ambitious. Lovely lake and countryside helped to make up for deficiences

Great family location. We stayed in a 4 bedroomed cottage. Very peaceful and great location. The centre could do with spending money on more activities or upgrading the current equipment. Tennis rackets not great, bikes need replacing. Swimming pool was very clean and lots of space, not busy. Shame the cottage hasn’t got a washing machine or dishwasher for the size. Having a bigger shop would save going into the local town and bring more money in for the resort.

Le personnel est incroyablement gentil et serviable, le lieu est superbe en été comme en hiver et très bien placé, les repas sont bons et le petit déjeuner typiquement québécois et varié. Il y a de nombreuses activités sur place. Malheureusement notre chambre est resté ouverte durant tout notre séjour suite à une serrure défaillante que personne n'a remplacé malgré les relances quotidiennes. Les cloisons sont juste des séparations en lambris qui laisse passer le.moindre bruit de pas ou la moindre discussion. La piscine est un lieu libre est donc non recommandé pour les couples sans enfants qui veulent se détendre ou nager en raison de la présence de nombreux enfants non encadrés qui sous la "responsabilité" de leur parents ne respectent absolument aucune règles. Toutefois le séjour resté une très belle expérience québécoise grâce aux activités et au personnel.

Un très bel endroit proposant de belles prestations. Le site est très grand donc beaucoup de monde. La piscine est magnifique avec sauna et spa Les chambres sont spacieuses et confortables. Bémol pour nous concernant la salle de restauration qui est vraiment bruyante et qui fait très cantine du coup . Petit déjeuner correct , repas du soir correct par contre très bon dessert, il faut le soulever car pas évident au canada. Le personnel est agréable et arrangeant.
