HELIOS - Micro-chalet at Maelström (CITQ#304336)
HELIOS is a micro-chalet able to accommodate up to 4 people in a magnificent woodland setting. It is located on Mont Tourbillon in Lac-Beauport. Trails are laid out all around the mountain; mountain biking, fat biking, snowshoeing and hiking at the door. It is a huge playground affiliated with the Sentiers du Moulin outdoor center. Ideal for nature lovers, sportsmen or simply for relaxing, the site is situated 30 minutes from Quebec City ! Ride, Eat, Sleep & ..Repeat !!
*Glamping experience: high quality comfort in the middle of the forest!
The space
HELIOS is a cozy, two-story micro-chalet, yet each floor covers more than 20m2 (215p2). The chalet was specially designed so that the living room, located on the 2nd floor, offers a breathtaking view of the surrounding woodlands and mountains as far as the eye can see; from the first glint of sunrise between Ste-Brigitte de Laval and Ile d'Orléans, to the radiant sunset view between Quebec City and the Le Relais ski center. A panoramic 180 degrees that changes with every day. A real immersion in the heart of nature awaits you!
The micro-chalet runs on a 100% solar and propane system that is safe, high-performance, high-tech and environmentally-friendly! The water is drinkable and comes from an artesian well.
HELIOS has a fully equipped kitchen with all the amenities including fridge / freezer (regular size), gas stove / oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, French press and mobile island for 4 people, one bedroom (double bed), a sofa bed in the living room, a private bath with shower, an independent gas fireplace on each floor, air-conditioning on the 2nd floor and a large terrace with a barbecue grill available summer and winter.
** No television ** but a 10Mbps Wi-Fi connection. Also, cellular signal reception is excellent here; you will be able to make good use of your data plans.
Kitchen inclusions: Salt, pepper, olive oil, coffee, aluminum foil, wrapping film, paper towels, hand soap, alcohol-based antibacterial sanitizer, dish soap and kitchen towels. *No fondue set provided.
Bathroom inclusions: Bath towels, washcloths, hand towels, bath mat, hair dryer, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, facial tissue, toilet paper, hand soap and alcohol-based antibacterial sanitizer .
Inclusions bedroom (double bed) and open area (sofa bed): Pillows, duvets and bedding.
Also, a clothes drying rack is available.
Note: A 9ft interior electrical extension is available for your small electrical appliances and / or your computer. Don't be afraid to forget yours anymore. ;)
Note that the roads on the mountain are rustic, unpaved woodland roads, either gravel or dirt roads. Although the roads are maintained throughout the year, this is a mountainous climate; please follow the region's weather recommendations, depending on the season. **WINTER : WINTER TIRES ARE MANDATORY**
* For cycling enthusiasts *: the Sentiers du Moulin outdoor center is renowned as one of the most beautiful mountain biking centers in Quebec. With 60 km of "singletrack" trails, they offer xc and all-mountain trails for all levels.
