CHALETS PLEIN BOIS - LE HUARD is a 4-season haven of peace located on the shores of magnificent Lac Sainte-Rose in Mandeville, in the Lanaudière region. Just 1.5 hours from Montreal, this warm cottage, where wood is the predominant feature, invites you to an immersive nature escape. Ideal for couples, families, friends, remote work, or even for small teams wanting a productive and rejuvenating "work retreat." The cottage is perfectly suited for both short stays and longer durations.
The lake, large and clean for swimming, is nestled in the heart of the mountains, offering breathtaking scenery and stunning seasonal colours. Enjoy the private beach and inviting waters directly from the property.
Inside, the cottage exudes incomparable warmth and serenity. Large windows guarantee an stunning view of the lake from almost every room. The spacious, well-windowed 3-season veranda is the perfect place to enjoy the fresh air in any season, whether to watch the moonrise during a long dinner or to have a front-row seat for a summer storm.
