Le Rivat - House for family

Le Rivat is located just a few minutes from the famous Village Vacances Valcartier, the Valcartier military base, the Hôtel de Glace, and many other tourist attractions.

Waking up in the heart of nature every morning, visiting Old Quebec in the same day, returning home to dine with friends and enjoy an outdoor fire or the fireplace inside the house—that’s the agenda awaiting you!

Le Rivat is spacious and welcoming. You will find all the amenities for cooking, as well as bedding and bath towels.

This country-style house can comfortably accommodate 12 adults and 2 children (futons upstairs) in shared rooms.

Surrounded by towering trees and near a river, your stay will be the perfect balance between outdoor adventures and urban life. Just 30 minutes from Old Quebec, you can easily drive to the must-see heritage sites while enjoying the natural setting of your vacation home. Ideal for groups of friends, families, or even business retreats, the house is spacious and allows everyone to either enjoy solitude or have unforgettable group vacations.

Le Rivat is an idyllic place, located on the Vallée Jeunesse site, a non-profit organization that helps young people facing academic or social adaptation challenges. When you rent a chalet or house, you help finance this organization’s mission: to restore hope to struggling youth, giving them confidence in their abilities and their future!

Like a resort, the Vallée site features several other houses and chalets, gathering spaces, access to the Jacques-Cartier River, and canoe rentals for your enjoyment. Additionally, there is an adjacent wilderness-style campground. The site is peaceful, ideal for gatherings, exchanges, and unforgettable moments. Every visitor will feel as though they are living outside of time, even if just for a short stay.

Access is easy by car, and you can quickly drive to Old Quebec in 30 minutes. Moreover, you’ll be just a few minutes away from the famous Village Vacances Valcartier, a tourist attraction with an indoor (Bora Parc) and outdoor waterpark in the summer, and tubing in the winter. A few minutes by car will also take you to many resort experiences, such as a day at Le Castor golf course, a visit to the Hôtel de Glace, a rafting adventure, or a day at the magnificent Aroma Spa. The Valcartier military base is also accessible to visitors via Le Castor center.

Pictures did no justice
Loved the house. Much nicer than pictures revealed. Furnishing in pictures looked sparse. Much nicer more furnishing than revealed in pictures. Very secluded and quiet setting.

Winter wonderland
Lovely spot with lots to do in winter time. A few small things such a broken chair and air hockey pusher, but minor and lots of chairs and other things to do . Owner was very helpful if needed as well .

Dommage
Belle propriété, accueillante par contre plusieurs points négatifs : manque de produits pour la lessive et lave-vaisselle, pas de couteaux aiguisés pour la coupe, pas de savon pour les mains dans les salles de bain. La propreté des lieux laisse à désirer : balayeuse non passée, des mousses se promènent au sous-sol et à l'étage. Les planchers ne sont pas très propres. Les appareils électroménagers et hotte de poêle sont mal entretenus et graisseux, grille-pain non lavé et grains de rôties sur le dessus. C'est dommage. Ce qui est aussi désolant, aucun produit de toilette à disposition pour dépanner (shampoing, savons pour le corps).

Assez grand pour 14
Grand pour 14! Par contre dans la cuisine il manquait des chaudrons, poêlons, tôles et articles pour cuisiner pour 14. De plus la salle de jeux qui faisait tellement envie aux ados n’était pas comme l’annonce. Table de Mississippi sans articles pour y jouer. Table de ping pong sur chaises et table de pool avec tapis brisé, très décevant pour les jeunes. Des serviettes pour tous et des draps propres dans les nombreux lits. Des personnes sont venues déneiger, très apprécié!

Chalet correct
La propreté des lieux, surtout les toilettes, était ordinaire. Il y avait une trentaine de mouches noires, voir plus, à notre arrivée et le nombre n'a pas beaucoup diminué durant le séjour. Le chalet est endommagé à plusieurs endroits. Je me serait attendue à un peu plus de «luxe» au prix que le chalet est loué. Séjour malgré tout agréable, mais la qualité était un peu décevante.
