In the end I was ok, with minor concussion and lesions but that was the scariest time in my life. I was pinned to the bottom for what seemed like forever, feeling like it was all slipping away to fast, and all i could think about was not being able to pick up my kids on time from their dads. Thank goodness they were not with me that day. No a great place for little kids AT ALL. Just be safe. Mother nature is not one to mess around with. I will give it a 5 because it is a spectacular place, and gorgeous.

Thanks so much to Bobby for reminding me of this place today when working on this big collection of…read moreweekend summer adventures - https://www.yelp.ca/collection/Jkc8VhyG4Wlw-94psy7b9Q - this park was my secret haven for years and I'm so happy to give it a 5 star review now. During covid they are selling bracelets for accessing the park to be able to guarantee enough safe space for everyone and keep folks healthy. The long rolling falls over smooth granite are just gorgeous. Perfect for picnics, perfect for lounging with your feet in cold water, just perfect for a day trip out of the city.

What an amazing crew!…read more I have an old bike, like from a garage sale. It was making this weird thing and was rough to pedal. I assumed it was because I'm out of shape. Passing by, I just thought, "the heck, let's get tuned." I got a pristine and quick experience and for the low price of 17$ (including a new part) they made my old shooting star into a Nimbus 2000.

My husband and I give high praise to http://www.autobuslepetittraindunord.com/. This friendly small…read morefamily firm provided shuttle transport for us and our bikes to the north end of the rail trail, and also transported our bags from one B&B to another. In addition, they provided timely and exceptional assistance to help us recover from an unexpected crisis. We were scheduled to depart on the shuttle early on a Monday morning. On the preceding Saturday afternoon, while parked at a hiking trail head in VT, the passenger window of our car was smashed. Without a secure car, how could we store our excess baggage during the four days of our bike trip? How could we get the window fixed, given our tight schedule, the location, the weekend, and the limited availability of parts? Maxim, who owns and operates the shuttle service with his parents, arranged to store our extra bags in their small office, (which is a picturesque caboose at the end of the rail trail) and to have someone repair our car window during our bike trip. As a result, we were able to enjoy an uninterrupted worry-free, romantic trip, biking 200 km through beautiful scenery, and including gourmet breakfasts and dinners at each of our three stops. Thank you, Maxim and family, for salvaging this trip by providing storage and arranging repair on an exceptional basis, and demonstrating such a high standard of customer service.

Amazing park found by fluke on FB advertising. My son is 4 and all over the place so after 5 hrs…read morehere we barely scratched the surface. Will most definitely return when he is older as it a super nice walk in the wood/learning experience. Word of advice BRING MOSQUITO REPELLENT (DEET) .As much as i hate products like these, we left halfway through to go get some as it was unbearable. Even with deet 30% they were still after us. Overall a great place, lots to do, learn. Can't wait for my son to be old enough to really enjoy thosnplace to the fulles.

Here for a work conference/retreat, now for the second year in a row. Clearly they take feedback…read morebecause the service of snacks and coffee during our hours-long sessions was phenomenal compared to the previous year. As always, the food on-site is delicious. The location is gorgeous and approachable. There are hiking trails (skiing/snow-mobiling in winter?) a half mile walk from the resort, and trails nearby. The road around Lac Dupois is exactly 3.1/miles (5K) from door to door of the resort, which is nice for those of us who enjoy a morning jog each morning. Beware of mosquitoes or flies in the June-July months though! The rooms are lovely, there are two different sides of the resort. I have now stayed on both and I prefer the side with the pool because of the ability to open the wall in the bathroom to open up the space! It's just me, so it's nice to have a lot of natural light. In the side I stayed in this time (waterfront/beachfront), the bathroom is closed off and dark without the lights on. Still a spacious room with a fireplace and lounge area and kitchenette, but the bathtub is uninspired on this side! What didn't go well, this time at least... upon checkout, we confirmed I had no incidentals, and I did not drink any of the in-room bottles of wine (this is a work trip, I am one person, I can't do that + I simply didn't!). But! Once I arrived home, I received an invoice for a bottle of wine (incidental) from my room. I followed the instructions to file a ticket to get support, and received no response. I followed up twice to the original ticket. After a day, I saw the charge post to my credit card I left for incidentals. I created a NEW ticket in case the first accidentally got closed. No response. Unfortunately I had to dispute the charge. I noticed after the dispute they attempted again to charge the card for the wine (I did not have), so I had to work with the card support (Apple Card support is very helpful) and they advised to rotate the card number. They ended up favoring me in the dispute. I really don't understand why they wanted to pin me for the wine so bad. I hope they didn't end up charging my company for it because that is fraudulent and I wouldn't want to support them going forward if this is how they do business.

Always love coming here…read more I've had some pretty great memories from dancing to electric eel in the hot tubs at night to tanning by the pool with nothing but sunshine in sight. I'm in love with the fire pit in the middle of the pool it's my fav part and I'm guessing everyone as well. Only thing that sucks is usually one is out of service on our last trip two were down but we still had 2 open. Rooms are great ! Huge bed with sliding wall beside the bath tub so you can watch the tv from the tub or just have a conversation with someone lol. The double sided fireplace is great really sets the mood. Great kitchen so bring your own food depending how many days you're staying.

Great waterpark but don't recommend going before July. We…read morewent late June lots of stuff was closed and the main attractions were partially closed to start at a lower point in the mountains to turn off the lift. Obviously this is because they want to keep lower staff and be more profitable in the month of June. Of course they still charge full price around 40$ so we'd expect to have access to a functioning park lol

I love water parks and Mont Saint-Sauveur scratched that itch for me…read more It's a high quality, clean water park with a number of activities to be had for children of all ages. You're rewarded with a beautiful scenic view as you're spending time on a mountain slope over-viewing nature. This is even more apparent since I came here on a beautiful sunny day and even enjoyed myself even when I waited in line to do the rides. Sure, the wait can be 15-20 minutes long but that's part of the game. I simply couldn't help myself and wanted to look at the beautiful horizon as I passed the time. The lobby area consists of a huge ski lodge where you can change and in the winter, keep warm. Yes, this slope is also used to ski. The park itself has about 20 slides of various levels of difficulty. There's traditional attractions like the pool with waves, the lazy river and the such. I really liked "the manic" which is a lazy river for advanced people who get to pushed down stream by waves, sometimes so big you can be tossed into the water. The cascades was also another favorite of mine. There's a big section for small children, so parent/child can keep themselves busy. A few tips : - I would suggest coming during the weekday as it gets quite busy during weekends, it was still quite busy even though we went on a Wednesday. - Buy your tickets online the day before, the money you save it quite notable. - Get some water shoes, walking barefoot for hours on asphalt wasn't the most exciting experience.

Such a wonderful super fun festival, I'm so glad we went!! This is a combination of amazing…read moremicrobreweries from across Quebec, a few cool artisans and some awesome local producers doing free tastings, food trucks, and then the Beauce Fair rides with the perfect fun rides you expect at a country fair like the Pirate Ship, a Ferris Wheel, and a bunch for the little kids too. There's also a stage with live music in the evenings, and inside La Place pour les Citoyens there's very clean bathrooms and a really comfortable Mama Baby room with everything you might need for changing diapers and feeding and giving a small kid a bit of a brain break from the commotion outside. We went with our neighbours who had a couple pro tips: for one, we went early, like from 11-2pm. By the time we left we couldn't get strollers through the crowds, and the alcoholism that can live unobserved in quaint country towns was beginning to make itself visible, but while we were there it was perfect. We also parked our cars in one of the lots outside town and took advantage of the free shuttles. These were school buses dedicated to bringing people in and out, helping relieve congestion in the narrow streets of sweet Ste-Adele. They came every couple minutes and meant we didn't have to deal with trying to find parking or maneuvering in town. Smart. My three small suggestions for improvement: I'd love to see more local artisans spotlighted and fewer importers, I'd love to see one cool vegan food truck, perhaps in place of one of the 27 poutine trucks (I kid, but not much) and in the amusement park it would be great to have one or two more spots to by tickets for the rides since there was some real congestion and confusion there. Overall though, a spectacular festival in a beautiful spot, really well organized. I definitely plan to make it an annual rendezvous for our family.

$2,500 Snowmobile Tour…read more My son and I did a snowmobile tour with Tyroparc and some friends in January, 2023. We have riden snowmobiles before so I was looking forward to it. The first half hour or so was fine. When we got to a short but steep hill our instructor stopped the tour and told us to go over the hill slowly and not use the brakes on the way down the hill as it can throw the passenger (in this case, my teenage son) off the snowmobile. This was not the first time I've ever driven a snowmobile, so I wasn't expecting any issues. When we went over the hill, we found ourselves headed towards a group of small trees. I tried to turn the snowmobile away from the tree while at the same time not using the brake. I wasn't able to negotiate the turn and we crashed directly into the tree. My son and I were both thrown off the snowmobile. My son was okay, thank goodness, but the impact to the tree left me dazed. I sustained a minor concussion and a strained wrist, as I had put my arm up to block my son from the tree. The snowmobile was totaled, as you can see from the photos. When the guide started up the snowmobile, there was a loud explosion in the engine. Despite my dazed mental state, I was told to drive this dangerous vehicle with my son on the back for several minutes. The instructor said he asked me if I was OK to drive it and apparently I said yes, but I was in no condition to make such a decision. It could have caught fire or who knows what else. When I got back to my hotel, and told my wife what had happened, she asked how we got the snowmobile back to the headquarters, and I couldn't remember. To literally add insult to injury, I had to pay $2,500 for the damage because I signed a waiver saying that I am responsible for all damages incurred. While I do accept some responsibility, my son and I were treated in a very reckless manner by the instructor. He was a nice guy but it was very alarming to my friends and son that I was in no condition to be driving immediately after a heavy impact of a snowmobile into a tree, which threw my son and I off the vehicle. I spoke with several managers from Tyroparc in the weeks after to see if we could come to some sort of compromise about the $2,500 owed, but it had already been billed to my credit card and as far as they were concerned, I was in another country hundreds of miles away, and it was case closed. I understand that most people don't crash into a tree and you probably won't either. But it's also important to know that Tyroparc's instruction before the crash and the assistance after the crash were both in my experience, negligent at best and dangerous at worst. Happy holidays!
