Glamping near Magog

On the shore of massive Lake Memphremagog, Magog serves up a multitude of urban delights in the prettiest of surroundings. As part of the Eastern Townships region, Magog is a gourmet traveller’s dream, surrounded by food and wine trails with epicurean experiences. The city’s walkable downtown has restaurants celebrating local cuisine, as well as a distillery and brewery, boutiques, galleries, and all the amenities you’d expect, but Magog is also full of parks and walking trails. The town's beach is perfect for swimming and paddling, and when setting out from Magog, campers will find they're on the doorstep of Mont-Orford National Park and close to many private and public campgrounds.

Supporting a year-round population, Magog is greater to visit anytime, but the best time depends on what exactly you want to do. Cold-weather campers can pitch a tent in the dead of winter in some parks, but if you’re looking to enjoy the lake, then mid-July through late August is the best time. We adore the Eastern Townships in fall thanks to its glorious changing leaves.

• You should have no problem with cell reception in the city, but once you get deep into the national parks or more remote areas, service is likely to be limited. 
• French is the first language here, and although most locals speak English fluently, it's helpful to have a translation app on your phone.
• You’ll find it difficult to explore this region without a vehicle. Magog has just a limited transit service that offers drastically reduced services on weekends.
• From June to October, the Magog farmers market runs very Sunday.
