Auberge du Lac-à-l'Eau-Claire

Sadly only here for 1 night. Beautiful grounds, our room 602 was on the ground floor facing out onto the gardens, this meant we had the shutters partly closed at all times as the area outside was very busy. Comfortable room with sofa and chair, bed also comfortable, huge bathroom. The lake was available for swimming, canoeing and we even sa a seaplane take off. Breakfast buffet average and don't expect to be served if you want tea! That's DIY!

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.

Wow, wow, what a stunning location and what a stunning hotel. Great reception team who dealt with us speedily, efficiently and very courteously despite our lack of French. Our bedroom was enormous, two huge beds, dinning table, large settee, well equipped tea coffee machine, fridge. Comfortable beds and pillows with nice linen. The bathroom was huge, stand alone roll top bath, two sinks and a large walk in shower. Towels and toiletries. The breakfasts are to die for, a proper buffet with staff service to sit you and bring anything one wanted. Dinner menu was imaginative and the quality of all the food was excellent. A most memorable stay and a big thank you to all the staff who were unbelievably good

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

Tolles Haus, super Angebot wie Kanu, Kajak etc. , die Küche im Haus hat wirklich ALLES, was man sich wünscht. Wir haben einen Abend im Restaurant gegessen. Es war wirklich super, toller Service, sehr feines Essen und ein Ambiente zum Wohlfühlen. Wir waren schon zum zweiten Mal dort und können es nur empfehlen!

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.
