THE COTTAGE 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and 1 powder room. Washer and dryer available.

1 paddle board, 1 kayak and 1 pedal boat are included with the rental. They are located under the balcony in a designated area; please return them there after use.
Small white deposits may occasionally be visible in the hot tub due to hard well water, which can cause calcium buildup in the pipes.
THE VILLAGE In 1928, following the construction of the Paugan hydroelectric dam in the municipality of Low, the village was flooded and relocated. This flood turned the small Lac Sainte-Marie into a much larger lake. Since then, the lake has become a popular spot for vacationers, who have built cottages on its shores.
IMPORTANT There are cameras outside the cottage.
10 logs are provided for the fire. Additional wood is available at $23 for 10 logs.
The dock is installed between May and June and removed between September and October, depending on water levels.
If you bring more than 1 animal, an extra fee of $25 applies for each additional animal, charged after the reservation is booked and confirmed.

Cottage was perfect. The view was spectacular.Cons: annoying neighbours across very busy street. Sump pump was going off very noisy and emptying out flowing towards the fire pit, the ground was wet.

Great spot if you're in the area. Very well kept and comfortable. The place is fully updated and has an incredible view of the lake. The host is extremely helpful and responsive. We only stayed for one night but would definitely go back.

Thank you so much for your kind review!
I’m really glad you enjoyed the comfort of the place, the lake view, and the updated space. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I truly appreciate your kind words about my responsiveness.
You’re welcome back anytime!
The cottage was very nice lakeview was great and fishing & swimming awesome. The cottage backs onto the main road through the village which has a lot of thro' traffic specifically large trucks at various hours throughout thenight. The basement bunk bed was missing a safety bar on the upper bed so kids could not sleep on it. The lower bunk bed mattress sinks badly in the centre.When we arrived there were 2 issues that needed to be resolved namely cleaning the hot tub & having the septic serviced given a strong pungent smell in the cottage. Both issues were resolved when we contacted the host.
Host communicated well with us. The listing reflected actual. Very clean

Modern cottage, well stocked, many watercraft to help you explore the beautiful lake. The dock was great and has a small beach next to it, perfect for kids. The marché is walking distance and has everything you need. We spent a week in August with our kids and everyone loved it!
Very nice property. I needed to contact host as the garage door failed to open. The host was helpful and helped me to resolve the issue over the phone.

We arrived to a beautifully clean and freshly renovated cottage. The view is stunning, the snow abundant and the aprez ski in the hot tub needed!The main level is well organized and the open area in the basement was ideal for bulky ski boots & winter gear. Zero complaints and a fantastic weekend was had by all.
