59km from Forges du Saint-Maurice National Historic Site · 2 sites · Tents, LodgingTucked away in the countryside of Lotbinière, this little wood-heated cabin offers a true escape into nature — with sweeping views over the St. Lawrence River flowing just below. It's a peaceful, private retreat where bald eagles are a common sight overhead.
Inside, you'll find everything you need for a simple, comfortable stay: a wood stove to keep you warm, a small kitchenette (mini-fridge, stovetop, dishes and utensils), a table, and a futon sofa that opens into a double bed on the main floor. Climb up to the mezzanine loft for a queen bed with its own quiet charm.
Step outside onto the small patio to take in the river view, or settle by the fire pit for an evening under the stars. A composting toilet is available on-site; showers are available in our house, just a short walk away.
The cabin sits about 300 meters from our home, fully surrounded by nature — giving you all the privacy you need while still being close to help if you need it.
Perfect for travelers looking for an affordable, back-to-nature getaway by the water.
The area is also a great home base for outdoor lovers — with nearby hiking trails, the river for kayaking and paddleboarding, and the botanical gardens of Domaine Joly-De Lotbinière just a short drive away.
Location: about 1 hour from both Trois-Rivières and Quebec City, and 2.5 hours from Montreal.
