It has a great location. It is close to nature, but at the same time not far from groceries and restaurants. A picnic table and a fire place gives feeling of camping. We stayed in a familly room with a little kitchenette where we could make our own breakfast. It was very conviniebtbfor us. Water park is great fun for all ages if you like this kind of activities. It was super hot during our staying, so we enjoyed very much the water park. There is bicycle path just across the road with a lot of wild raspberry along it. The only little drawback of this place is WI-FI absence, because it is located between 2 municipalities. I highly recommend this place!

Très pratique d'avoir toutes les commodités pour faire des repas. De plus, il est possible de faire un feu dehors (foyer partagé avec les 3 autres chambres). Il y a aussi table à pique-nique et chaise à l'extérieur. Le seul point négatif est sur la propreté. En générale, c'était très propre! Cependant, il y avait des taches sur les draps et la douche était bouchée. On aurait sûrement pu faire régler le problème en le mentionnant, mais l'accueil ferme à 20h.

Superbe emplacement au bord de la rivière. On s'y sent vraiment en vacances. Chalets très propres et site bien entretenu. Petits détails à améliorer : fournir plus d'information à la clientèle à l'arrivée concernant ce qui est inclut ou pas. Rien n'est mentionné lorsqu'on réserve sur Expedia. Aussi les chalets sont un peu petits pour 4 personnes. Ça va pour 2 ou 3 nuits mais pas plus.

La chambre était parfaite : bien pensée, propre, et tout était à notre disposition pour cuisiner et bien dormir. La salle de bain était impeccable, ce qui a vraiment contribué à notre confort. Quelques petits détails pourraient être améliorés, comme une chaise extérieure brisée à notre arrivée et le bas de la porte qui s’est décollé dès la première journée, mais rien qui ait nui à notre séjour. Une petite table par unité serait aussi bien pratique pour profiter pleinement de l’espace extérieur, mais c’est vraiment un détail. Nous avons adoré notre séjour et comptons bien revenir! Le parc Octopus a été un franc succès autant pour nous que pour nos enfants — un vrai coup de cœur. Le seul point à noter serait le bruit de la route, assez passante, surtout depuis notre bâtiment qui était tout près. Cela dit, les unités plus éloignées doivent certainement être plus tranquilles. En résumé : un lieu magnifique, une belle expérience en famille, et une adresse que nous recommandons chaudement!
