Mountain View 148 - 4 chambres - 13 personnes

Nous louons des chalets régulièrement et il est très rare que nous laissons un commentaire. Malheureusement, nous avons été très déçu. L’entrée et le premier étage du chalet dégagent une odeur nauséabonde. Le spa sentait très fort et était plein de sable. Une des chambres au rez de chaussée n’est pas réglementaire car elle n’a pas de fenêtre et les fixures du luminaire laissent entrevoir le filage électrique qui en plus étaient plein de poussières. Plusieurs morceaux de vaisselle étaient sales dans l’armoire. Les salles de bain dégagent également des odeurs et laissent à désirer. Ce chalet a besoin de rénovations importantes. Le coût de location est beaucoup trop élevé ainsi que la cote de 9 sur 10 VRBO pour l’expérience. Ces commentaires ont également été partagés à l’entreprise de location.

The environment is magnificent. The photos are beautiful, and they give a fairly accurate overview of what we see there, but not of what we don't see: first of all, inadequate heating: the entrance to the basement - that is the main door - is not heated and the door to the hallway is poorly insulated, the cold enters directly into the bathroom downstairs where the heating is broken and the electric baseboard in the hallway is insufficient to take over (never more than 10 degrees Celsius during our stay). Elsewhere, the electric baseboards are exposed, there is unrepaired water damage in a bedroom in the basement, with a strong smell of damp, paint needs to be redone on the staircase upstairs, etc. Despite a comment made in August 2024, the dishwasher is still not attached, the lighting is clearly insufficient, especially in the central room. In short, it's incredibly expensive for what you get: the only reason to justify such a price is a very large number of beds: so it's quite a bit cheaper when you split the bill between 10!

Excellent place to stay

Over the last 5 years, I rented several comparable houses for our family vacations (summer and winter holiday seasons). While the facilities were certainly OK overall, I would say the rental is expensive for what you get. The main foyer (most of the pictures in the advertisement) is great. The bedrooms and bathrooms facilities are average. There were clear maintenance issues with the lobby's main entrance door (we had to go in-and-out through the secondary basement entrance), the dishwasher was not attached to the counter (tipping forward every time you open it), lighting is insufficient, there was no fan in the basement bathroom, and kitchen is lacking few cooking essentials. When you rent a place like this (for 10+ people), owners should expect customers to cook for 10+ people! When we got there, the spa was not functioning (cold) - we had to call-in. As a result, the spa could not be used for 10+ hours in order to warm up. Bedroom decorations are - let's say - very minimalist. Also, at least one ''bedroom'' had no window. I am not sure this can legally be called a ''bedroom'' in Quebec (according to the CNB). Finally, the 10am check-out time is way too early (considering the 4pm check-in time). According to ''house rules'', you have to empty the dishwasher, take out the trash/recycling, etc... so if you want to have breakfast and use the dishwasher (10+ people!) - you have to plan getting up around 7:30am at the latest... a noon check-out would be just fine...

Super site, dans la forêt mais près de tout. Chalet d’un style plus ancien, grand et très propre. Facile d’aller à Québec de là, mais aussi proche des sentiers de Cap Tourmente.
