Welcome to Little Forest Lake!
Enjoy our private family property featuring a small, serene lake—perfect for nature watching or a private
spot to cast a line. We have a great site right next to the water equipped with a picnic bench and a fire pit. Firewood is also available right on-site.
A Note on the Spot: Our lakeside area is easy to access but sits near a road that can be busy at times. If you prefer a more peaceful experience, you are more than welcome to camp closer to the house where it is much quieter. We want you to have the best stay possible!
Bienvenue au Little Forest Lake !
Profitez de notre propriété familiale privée comprenant un petit lac serein, idéal pour l'observation de la nature ou pour pêcher en toute tranquillité. Nous offrons un superbe emplacement juste au bord de l'eau, équipé d'une table de pique-nique et d'un foyer. Du bois de chauffage est également disponible directement sur place.
À noter concernant l'emplacement : Notre zone au bord du lac est facile d'accès, mais elle est située près d'une route qui peut être passante par moments. Si vous préférez une expérience plus paisible, vous êtes les bienvenus pour camper plus près de la maison, où l'environnement est beaucoup plus calme. Nous voulons que vous passiez le meilleur séjour possible !

It was an extremely short stay due to scheduling. We wanted something to setup fast, cook some food and go to sleep so we can leave very early in the morning. The place met the expectations. It was flat and we setup the RTT in no time. 3 fire pits to choose from, privacy wise I think in full season when the trees have leaves, it is as private as it can be (we camp early and cold may so it was quite open. Michel guided us over chat and it was very responsive. The only negative is that previous campers did not leave the place better than they found it. Cannot be too judgmental on that since even us we did not picked up stuff left behind the other campers. To our defence, we arrive at 5PM and left 3AM with some rain in between. We plan to go again and do better. All in all we loved our short stay. The sound of small creek close to the campground puts you to sleep instantly.

David’s camping spot is magical. Located right on a small private lake in front his parents’ property, only 10-12 minutes from La Tuque. We didn’t get to meet David as he was away, but we did meet David’s parents, who are incredible hosts: hospitable, considerate, kind, and absolutely hilarious. True gems we felt lucky to have met. They made us feel right at home. The only downside is the property is right next to a country road, which can get a little noisy at times, but honestly we didn’t even notice it much. We were quite sad to leave and hope to come back.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The setting is beautiful, perfect for fishing, relaxing, and stargazing at night. The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We also brought our two dogs, and it turned out to be a great spot for them as well.
The only minor downside was the nearby road, as you can hear trucks passing at night. That said, it didn’t take away from what was overall an amazing camping experience. We would definitely come back!

David’s spot was exactly what I needed! Great one night stop on the road and no detour necessary. The little view of the pond with the fire pit wasn’t so bad either :) thanks lots!

The site was as described, the pond and stream are beautiful. However I could not really take advantage of it because of the very high quantity of mosquitoes and midges. Michel communicated well and I would go back at a different time of year.

When to go
As a year-round city that sustains a large population, La Tuque is ready for visitors year-round, pending the activities you're looking to do. For summer pursuits and getting out on the water, you’ll find the warmest temperatures from late June through to early September. The ski season in Quebec can start as early as November and run through to April, making March an excellent time when resorts are less busy and the powder is still deep.
Know before you go
- Expect locals to communicate in French first, and then maybe switch to English if you don’t speak the language. Having a language app can be really helpful, as not everyone you meet will be bilingual. Activities at La Mauricie National Park are only presented in French.
- Though La Tuque is close to both Quebec City and Montreal, you’ll find it near impossible to explore this area without a vehicle of your own.
- La Tuque offers both free and paid electric vehicle charging stations.
