ABOUT
Modern chalets surrounded by nature near Mont-Édouard and the majestic Fjord!
We had a dream … To return and settle in the sources of our nature, where we were born in Bas-Saguenay! In 2013, we were fortunate to acquire 90 hectares of happiness and purity. We are a couple, a family wishing to share with you and make you discover our little corner of paradise. We are located in Anse-St-Jean between the majestic Fjord and the mountain. Our mission is to give you a 100% natural experience by offering you wooden cabins of different sizes as well as unusual dwellings in the middle of the forest. Our land has a heart and a soul! This is why we have decided to name our homes in honor of the men and women who lived there. We would like to thank the Martel family for allowing us to immortalize these people in our home! Every family has a story… Welcome to ours! Welcome to Cabananse! Pierre-Luc, Marie-Chantale, Éliot, Sofia and Livia
Each family has a story… Welcome to ours! Pierre-Luc and Marie-Chantale, Your hosts
