A rejuvenating stay awaits you. Click on “Show more” to discover all the details of this extraordinary stay.

*** Your stay, your experience ***

The Pilgrim was designed to offer you a true return to basics, while respecting the environment. Electricity is deliberately limited, but you will find everything you need for a comfortable stay: electric space heater, mini-fridge, espresso machine, and two burners for cooking. In summer, enjoy an outdoor shower with a view of nature, and in winter, indulge in an old-fashioned experience: cooling off with melted snow on the wood stove after a day outdoors.

*** Facilities at your disposal ***

  • Bedroom on the 2nd floor with 2 double beds with mattresses covered with hygienic covers (bring your own bedding)
  • For cooking: wood stove, hob and outdoor fireplace
  • Everything for the fire (wood, paper, matches)
  • Rechargeable lanterns and candles for a warm atmosphere (there are no lights)
  • Soap, linen, dish sponge and toilet paper
  • Board games and books
  • Well water outside in summer, with 3 20-litre cans of drinking water already filled (no running water in the chalet)
  • Charging point for electric cars

*** A true return to nature ***

This refuge offers a total immersion in the simplicity of yesteryear, with an outdoor dry toilet and an environment disconnected from the modern world. Although there is no Wi-Fi, a good cellular network is available. However, we encourage you to take full advantage of the disconnection by putting your phone in the cell box. 😉

It is the ideal place for outdoor lovers, hikers, and families looking for calm and simplicity. Imagine yourself, breathing the fresh air after a day in the forest, without TV, without screens, just you and nature.

*** Nights under a starry sky ***

Located in the heart of the Mont-Mégantic International Dark Sky Reserve, The Pilgrim promises unforgettable evenings around the fire, under a sky illuminated by thousands of stars.

*** Nearby activities ***

  • Mont-Mégantic National Park for hiking, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing
  • Mont-Mégantic Observatory for stargazing
  • Sentiers Frontaliers 3 km away for scenic hiking and off-piste skiing
  • Cheese factories, microbreweries and farmers’ markets to explore
  • Less than 3 km away, access to the mountains: Montagne de Marbre, Mont Saddle and Mont d’Urban. Not to mention Mont Mégantic (Sépaq) and Mont Gosford a little further away.

You will also be only 35 minutes from Lac-Mégantic and 50 minutes from Sherbrooke.

The Pilgrim is much more than just a nature getaway, it is a real adventure where every moment counts. For larger groups, the chalet The Hermit, located just 100 meters away, can also accommodate you: https://fleximmobilier.com/en-ca/hebergement/hermit-rustic-eco-friendly-nature/

Immerse yourself in this unique experience where simplicity becomes a real luxury.

*** IMPORTANT ***

There is no bathroom inside the chalet. There is a dry toilet outside, near the chalet. In addition, there is no indoor shower, however you will have access to an outdoor shower from June to September (no heating element for the water – heated by solar action). You must therefore wash with a washcloth from October to May. There is a mini refrigerator but there is no stove. You will therefore have to use the wood stove, the electric hotplate (2 burners) or the outdoor fireplace for your cooking. There is no lighting, but rechargeable lanterns and candles are provided. The cottage has only 1 bedroom on the 2nd floor with 2 double beds with mattresses covered with hygienic covers: you must bring your own bedding. All in all, a real rustic experience from yesteryear!

The cottage will be entirely exclusive to you, while the outdoor shower and the electric car charging station are shared with The Hermit (neighboring cottage 100 meters away).

I remain available to answer your questions by text, email or phone, before, during and after your stay 🙂 The house guide as well as instruction messages will be sent to you after booking for simplify the arrival process as much as possible and allow you to plan the activities of your stay.
