The description online indicated that there is a reception and restaurant on premises. However, they were both closed our entire stay. It was very inconvenient to have to go into town for food.

priced a little too high
This was a nice place. The description said 3 twin beds. It did not say that 2 were up steep stairs to a loft. Common area was nice and good kitchen facilities. I felt price was high since everything offered cost extra. Bathroom floor was not leveled properly so water ran over entire floor.

Un. Cadre idyllique, propreté de la chambre et des espaces communs, réceptionniste très sympathique et souriante, opportune, rivière avec plusieurs ponts à traverser petite cabane, perdue au milieu de la forêt… possibilité de faire des feux en extérieur pour le barbecue ou se réchauffer… de très bons moments
