Amazing girls retreat weekend.
7 ladies spent a wintery weekend at this gorgeous lodge!
The lodge was cozy and clean. Easy and efficient booking and arrival/ departure.
The beds were comfy and hot tub hot!!
Super space for a large group and so central to all amenities!!
Address sign was difficult to see at night but we found it and We loved our stay!! Thank you
Thank you! We love to hear that the beds are comfortable, and agree that The Lodge is unique in its accessibility to so many activities, shops, and restaurants, while offering a private, country retreat!
For future guests, please be sure to read our welcome instructions carefully. The Lodge is in the country so we have provided what we hope are very clear instructions for how to find our driveway. We greatly appreciate feedback, and will definitely work to improve our signage. :)
A wonderful setting for family time
A beautiful, cozy setting for families to gather - enough room to be together and we were able to set up separate spaces for games, playing guitar, and watching TV all at the same time. Our hosts were above-and-beyond.
5 GIRLS AND A COTTAGE
We booked a 4 night stay at The Lodge, upon arrival we were greeted by the owner who was finishing up some upkeep on a few items in the house, Andy was great at walking us through the house and giving us some pointers.
The house was clean and well kept, it is an older home that comes with all the quirks (squeaky wood floors, bay windows and beautiful ceilings) the kitchen is spacious and the dinning rooms is excellent for a copious brunch.
Our group definitely enjoyed the warm spa, and some of us even ventured to a cool September dip in the pool (it is a heated pool but the weather is turning this time of year).
The lake is a few minutes walk away but we were so happy we went, the kayak adventure was breath taking.
With restaurants, groceries and convenience stores only a few minutes drive away we needed for nothing.
A big thank you to Kimberly for the at home massage therapist suggestion, she did wonders for us and I highly recommend you ask about her.
The exterior Kitchen and Gazebo were fantastic for a late afternoon meal.
The bedrooms were comfortable, there are 2 bathrooms on the 2nd floor but only 1 shower, all 5 of us were able to get ready on time for a night in the town. the rooms are spacious and private, aside from a few floor boards cracking there were no noises.
If you are looking to get lost in nature and enjoy a few restful days or if you want to enjoy a nice ski lodge I would 100% recommend The Lodge. The hosts are excellent to communicate and are very knowledgeable on the region.
I would definitely stay again. Cheers
We love to receive detailed reviews so guests know just what to expect! Thank you!!
We are excited to announce that by Spring 2020, we will have renovated the main-floor bathroom to include a shower. The Lodge will have 3 FULL bathrooms - 2 with a shower, and 1 with a bathtub. You will definitely find our house quiet - it is very private, with just the sound of nature outside your windows. However, for those not used to creaky floors, we now provide a basket of individually packaged ear plugs for your sleeping comfort. :)
Girls Weekend
We enjoyed our weekend the home had everything we needed we we very satisfied. Thank you. We left a few comments for Kimberly the owner
We LOVE to receive comments, as it ensures that we can do everything possible to provide a perfect stay for our guests. We are always disappointed when we don't receive them until after departure - too late for us to take action. We only live 5 minutes away, so this is usually very easy to do. Our goal is to provide a 5-Star stay!
That being said, all comments, whenever we receive them are taken to heart, and allow us to continually make improvements - such as renovating our main floor bathroom to add a shower (coming Spring 2020).
Great family retreat
The house and its location close to multiple activities worked really well for our family. Thanks for responding to our questions so quickly. The wonderful pool and hot tub were a smashing success with our pre-teen grand kids

About Kimberley
We raised our family in this house and lived here for almost 20 years. We moved to Chicago several years ago for work, and have just returned to Morin Heights to enjoy our retirement. We love everything about Morin Heights and the Laurentians, and hope you will too!
Kimberley purchased this Chateau / Country House in 1995
Why Kimberley chose Morin-Heights
This home is close to the centre of the village and everything the area has to offer. The cross country ski trails are literally in our back yard. There are lakes and rivers nearby that offer canoeing, kayaking and fishing. Bring your family and friends here and fall in love just as we did 25 years ago.
What makes this Chateau / Country House unique
Our home has plenty of room for everyone to spread out! Multiple, large sitting areas (living room, den, TV room); Huge dining room; and A beautiful eat-in kitchen. In the summer we live outside in the gazebo, enjoying the bar that opens up onto the pool and hot tub. You may not want to leave the pool, but if you do, our clean, clear lake is very close and the kayaks and canoe are at your disposal. Morin-Heights is close to all the action but offers a peaceful place to get away from it all. This is country living at its best!
