DOM Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Wanting to go to somewhere in the st zenon area 3rd week of march ( don’t want auberge le cabannon) anyone staying in this area now and what are the snow conditions like and want a little nicer resort than cabannon trails were getting thin in the Lake Timiskaming area. I figure the mt tremblant area would have more snow any suggestions would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolbane Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 We are in NW Quebec all this week. Trails are mostly very good and more snow is coming over next few days. It is worth the trip if anyone is on the fence. Started in Ville Marie on Sunday, went east first day, then North to Senneterre. Now in Amos heading to La Sarre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sledjunk Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Lac Taureau (sp?) is very nice, but a little awkward as they frown upon sleds getting too close to the building, therefore you have to haul your stuff through the building to an exit and then to the sled compound. Kind of exhausting getting in and out, especially if saddle bagging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyB Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Vieux Moulin just south of St.Zenon, very nice place,reasonable price. Sacacomie just east of St.Zenon, very nice also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOM Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 Thanks for the input i stayed at Vieux Moulin this year. Loved the outdoor hot tub. I would like to try Sacacomie. Anyone stayed at both and which one did they prefer and why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte1214 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 http://www.sacacomie.com/hotel-sacacomie-quebec-welcome-to-sacacomie-en.html Looks like quite the place!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyB Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I've only had lunch at Sacacomie. Good food, set menu...for lunch. Beautiful place, imagine an overnight stay would be great, not sure on pool options there. Another nice option I would suggest is travel to St.Raymond or Quebec. Stay at the four points north of Quebec, travel a day to le Malbie stay at the Fairmont manoir Richillieu, another day to Chicoutimi, stay at Le Sageneen. Now back to four points or if you have another day check out the Mt Valin area for a day. Very nice places to stay, all have pools, hot tubs...outdoor too. Top notch scenery and trails. Excuse the spelling, no kappesh French, no time to check for accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I agree on the hotels suggested. Stayed at them last year. If you go to LaMalbaie make sure to go to the lookouts they are pretty amazing. Especially mont a peine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful spot but for 300 BUCKS a night, ahhh no! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signfan Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Sacacomie is pushing the $500 a night range. You park your sled 1/2 a mile from the resort. They do provide sleighs to tow your gear in. Still not what I would call snowmobile friendly as you do have to walk it. They should run a shuttle if they want to keep the sleds that far from the lodge. We stopped for lunch to say we’d been. Can’t see ever going back. It was a 10 km ride in off the main trail to boot. Just a little too uppitty up for my liking. The Manawin near Trois Rives seemed really nice. I know not really St Zenon, but it’s only 1/2 a days ride away. You could run to La Tuque and back one day and St Zenon and back another. 3rd day go east to St Raymond and back. Probably not much further to drive to. Better highway to run north on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
