We rented 2 of the 2 bedroom cottages side by side (there's only 5 cottages in all so they're all close enough to each other). The cottages are 10 years old but still feel like new and are very clean. The lake was very nice for swimming and kayaking or canoeing. There's plenty of nature trails for hikes in the area. The spa relaxation area with sauna and yurt were very nice to use and clean. The owners have well stocked the cottages and kitchen. I would stay again for sure.

I spent five days there with a group of people and it was honestly one of the most beautiful places! If you want a nice retreat in the forest with nature, I highly suggest their chalets! And in addition, Valerie is such an amazing person !

It was a last minute getaway during our Easter break and it was fabulous. The lake front cottages are new, very clean and very well equipped. Heated floors and a gas fireplace was a delightful bonus, and plenty of windows that provided an abundance of sun and natural heat in the mornings. There are two bedrooms upstairs and an open loft area with a sofa bed but no bathroom upstairs, a full bath is on the main floor. The beds were very comfortable for us (King) and the kids (Queen/Twin bunk) Location is very quiet, far from any main roads, it's actually a 3km dirt road to the cottages from the main road. Great well marked hiking trails, they also provide snow shoes. There is a toboggan run, a small ice rink and play park for the kids to enjoy. A Jacuzzi and sauna for the adults as well as an amazing Yurt equipped with a fireplace. The owners, Martin and Valerie, were very accommodating and showed such passion and care for their resort. We would love to go back, just wish it was closer so we can go every weekend!…

Loved the experience. Very friendly and helpful hosts/owners. The grounds are far from the main rouds so it is very quiet. There is the appalaches mountains where you can take a walk on trails. Lake below cottages to kayak or canoe. The chalets are better than expected. Clean, all comforts of home in nature. Heated floors and heating and air circulation. Large windows allow you to see the view. Comfortable beds and soft cotton sheets. Peaceful decor. Would recommend and come again. Also family friendly activities and playground.

I've had the chance to go twice, once in the 4+ people cottages and a second time in the 2 person cottage and they are both great to say the least. The cottages are very well equipped and super clean. The owners are very nice and accommodating. It's a great place to really get away from the city. Peaceful and quiet I highly recommend these cottages for some romantic time away. Will come back for sure !

We just spent 3 nights at Esker Nature and loved everything about it! Martin was very welcoming and accommodating. Our cottage was lovely, spacious and well-appointed. Everything seems to be lovingly cared for. The surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful. We have nothing negative to say. Our stay was relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable. We will definitely be back.

From Montreal, my first time so far up in the north, but worth it ! The ''Chalet'' was VERY VERY clean, very well equip, well build, warm and very comfortable. The view was outstanding, pure nature. The lake was beautiful, we walk around and was a very nice walk. We did receve a very warm welcome from the front desk lady ( the Owner I think ) and she show / explain what ever we needed to know. No hesitation, if I go again I want to go there again. The road trip it's worth it !

Spent 4 nights in a great chalet at Esker Nature Ideally situated in the Parc des Appalaches near hiking trails and facing lake Long. The accommodation is fantastic, modern with a touch of rustic, very comfortable! Large windows facing the lake, mezzanine, well equipped kitchen, fire pit outside and a large patio with propane BBQ facing lake, it even has a washer and dryer! We could not ask for more! Villages are not far...excellent to buy some missing groceries...the owners, Valerie et Martin, a charming couple will go out of their way to suggest you the best trails, book you a appointment to have a massage done on the mezzanine at the chalet etc...a nice jacuzzi ($) awaits you after hiking with a heated cabana.....excellent spot to relax, unwind and enjoy nature!

If you want to relax, no phone, no internet, no wifi.....that is the place!! The nature is sublime. The chalet was perfect, everything you need and very nice. You can go on nature hikes through the woods.. you can chill in front of the lake....so peaceful. I have nothing bad to say about this place, simply perfect!!
