The little story:

Called the Cathedral by the locals, the building is inspired by a Colombian hacienda. It is the result of a man's dream, who has worked almost alone to build it in the 70s. At that time, the road to Lac Gagnon East did not exist ... All the construction equipment's transportation was made by boat ... Two boats filled with sand would still grise at the bottom of the lake.

What can you do around?

The Villa is located 15 minutes from the village of Duhamel, 60 minutes from Mont-Tremblant, 60 minutes from Montebello, 90 minutes from Gatineau / Ottawa and 2.5 hours from Montreal.
