Heritage House is a superb, spacious and comfortable lakefront Mountain Chalet, perfectly located at Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, fukky equipped for 8 adults. This residence was planned and appointed to accommodate skiers, golfers and family vacationers in comfort, luxury and large private spaces. It is located in the peaceful forest of the 'Villa des Bois' development at Lac Dufour / Lac Forget, only
a short 5 minutes drive from the quaint shops and restaurants of old St-Jovite (Mont-Tremblant Centre-Ville), several golf courses, and the combined skiing capital of Mont-Tremblant and Mont Blanc. The Chalet is rented directly by its owners, thus assuring personal touch, quality and reasonable prices. It is nestled high in the hills of the 'Villa des Bois' development, on 1.6 acres of private forest. The home is 2,500 square feet of modern, open spaces, cathedral ceilings, and 'walls of glass' where you may bask in sunshine (or in moonlight), all year round, while taking in the stunning view and the mature forest all around. It has 4 very large bedrooms, 3 full washrooms (1 ensuite), 6 outside decks and a huge screened-in porch. It is fully equipped to receive 8 adults very comfortably. The inviting main entrance leads to the stunning living room with its huge cascading windows, warm Napoleon fireplace, antique furniture, original art, cozy leather couches, library and wing back chair. The dining room is large and the table expands to easily accommodate an entire group of guests. It gives onto a large deck and the screened porch, where you may BBQ to your heart's content all year round, amidst the nature! The kitchen is bright and fully equipped, Lagustina pots, pans and all the large and small appliances you would expect. We provide all kitchen products and all staples & condiments so you can enjoy your holidays, without having to run to stores all day. There are 2 large bedrooms on the main floor, with 2 full bathrooms (bath & shower): 1 king, 1 queen bed, with down duvets and pillows. Linens are provided. Up to the cozy loft, and admire the magnificent view of the lake from the 2 twin beds. The fourth bedroom occupies an entire wing of the lower level and is practically an apartment on its own, along with the third full washroom, extra single bed, and adjacent laundry facilities. The oversized family room is also on the lower level, with its 9 foot ceiling, relaxing furniture, digital cable reception with large screen TV, HD DVD, computer, printer, fax and yet another wood burning fireplace. The patio door walk-out leads to a colorful wild flower garden, more decks and the romantic pathway to the lake. Can't leave the office behind? We have Wi-Fi high speed internet throughout the property and a full office setup in addition. Our VOIP telephones allow you to call home, or anywhere in North America, for free! THE BEACH: (AKA as 'The rock')
Enjoy, your own private bedrock beach, flowing into the pristine waters of Lac Forget, or read your favorite book a few steps back, under the shade of a 160 year old jack pine. The key words here are: 'PRIVACY' and 'SOLITUDE'. From the beach head which is a point advancing into the lake, everything around is natural forest: the neighbours are nowhere to be seen. We also have a large floating raft, 20 feet into the lake and a new dock to enter and exit the water safely. Motor boats are not permitted on the lake. It just doesn't get better than this...
Villa des Bois is a small, controlled development in an exquisite, natural, mountain setting. We are approximately an hour and a half drive north of Montreal (Quebec), from Pierre E.Trudeau International Airport, 30 minutes from La Makaza international airport. Shopping is pure fun in Mont-Tremblant "Centre-Ville" or in the original village of Mont Tremblant. Music festivals, the North-american IRONMAN competition and other sports events are held yearly in Mont-Tremblant. Among them the 'Blues Fest' in July has become a major music venue. Of course, winter time include world class downhill skiing and snowboarding at the local ski resorts (Tremblant, Mont Blanc) located in the immediate area, all within a twelve minute drive from the chalet. A few steps from our door and you can be snowshoeing in the woods or cross-country skiing around the lakes. In the summertime our area transforms into a recreational paradise for golfers (8 golf courses within 20 minutes drive! ), horseback riding, bicycling, mountain climbing, hiking, fishing, whitewater rafting, and of course, swimming or,... just sitting around listening to the birds and enjoying the clean alpine environment and serenity. You may especially not want to miss our Canadian maples turn into a folly of colors in the fall, or taste its sweet syrup at the sugar shacks in spring.
