Brown Bear Lodge

The location without drinkable water its a bit of a problem both for the rest its very good

Unfortunately what was a good stay

Beautiful cottage about 15 mins from Lachute. Had a friend get together. The group loved all the different activities available on the property. A couple of notes that might help others... The floors are creaky as others have mentioned. Additionally we were not aware there is no drinking water on site, which is good to know in advance.

Our stay was absolutely fantastic. This was a late Xmas present to my family. ..there was lots of room for the children to play and run around. The lodge was spacious with all the amenities needed. Bedrooms were spacious and very clean. Living room area was able to accommodate all my family at the same time. All needs were met! We will definitely rent from Namastay again. Thanks for the wonderful memories!!!

So, the first issue is that VRBO says the area is Saint Sauveur ... and it is 50 minutes from there. The place has a lot of supplies - which is a bonus, but the floors on all levels creak very loudly and it is impossible to sleep if someone is walking above you. Also, the path to the water is not great. There are no steps and you have to be very careful, and falling is a strong possibility - not great for young or old. Also, the flooring in the family room has 2 big patches of plywood replacing missing hardwood. Finally, the instructions were given by email and that really didn't for us. I would appreciate an information booklet - either digital or hardcopy - to be left on site, so that you know the expectations at the beginning of the trip. This is a very expensive rental, and I didn't think we got value for our money. The potential is there...
