Enjoy a warm, peaceful setting for nature, relaxation, and unforgettable adventures.

You arrive completely independently: we are not on-site, and you simply use the code provided in the virtual guide to access the chalet.
We’re always easily reachable, happy to answer any questions quickly and gladly.

Le Maoli, located in Chertsey in the picturesque Lanaudière region, is the perfect base for exploring an area rich in lakes, streams, and forests. Just a 2-minute walk from Lac Sol, you can enjoy kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply taking in the stunning natural scenery. Legend has it that French aviator and writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, author of The Little Prince, once stayed in the area, adding a touch of history and intrigue to your stay.

For moments of reflection and serenity, visit the Centre marial Marie-Reine-des-Coeurs, nestled in the forest. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the Parc régional de la Forêt Ouareau, offering trails for hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and tubing. Make Le Maoli your base for adventures in snowshoeing, skiing, snowmobiling, or quad/ATV riding, with a network of local operators ready to provide unforgettable experiences.

Before arriving at the chalet, you can stop in Sainte-Julienne or Chertsey for groceries, and don’t miss La Boulangerie Pain de Campagne, a family-run bakery for 45 years, offering homemade products, coffee, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Nearby, enjoy Ski Montcalm for alpine skiing and snowshoeing, golf courses like Rawdon, L’Estérel, or Lac Masson, and activities such as Arbraska (tree-top adventures) or Artic Aventure (snowmobiling and dog sledding). Quad and ATV excursions are just 15 minutes away, and Atlantide Water Park is 25 minutes for family fun.

Whether you’re seeking relaxation, adventure, or quality time with family and friends, Le Maoli offers a warm, peaceful setting as the ideal base to explore nature, create unforgettable memories, and enjoy everything Chertsey and the Lanaudière region have to offer.

The entire house is yours to enjoy.

Belle région

Beau chalet situé dans un endroit absolument calme loin de tout bruit! Le chalet est très bien équipé. Dans la cuisine, on dispose d'une multitude d'épices! Le lit king dans la mezzanine est très confortable. Le terrain est immense et entouré d'arbres! Malgré que les voisins sont proches on a l'impression d'être loin de tout. Le chalet a besoin d'un peu d'amour. Les divans du salon ont l'air très usés. Le revêtement en simili cuir manque à plusieurs endroits de chaque divan. Les casseroles et les bols à salade étaient sales... il y a avait des Kleenex froissés/sales sur le bureau de la chambre du sous-sol lors de mon arrivée. À chaque matin on se réveille à une multitude de moustiques morts partout sur les planchers, sur la table de la salle à manger, dans les chambres, les salles de bain... Je loue des chalets depuis longtemps même en été et je n'avais jamais vu cela... Je trouve que les frais de ménage sont très élevés pour avoir à faire la vaisselle en arrivant et trouver des Kleenex sur les meubles...

A well equipped chalet!

We were pleasantly surprised at all the amenities of this chalet. The kitchen especially had everything we could hope for. We enjoyed the hot tub and the ability for us to bring our dog. Communication with the host was prompt and helpful. Check out the bakery and butcher less than 20 min away!
