Cozy springtime getaways
By David C, March 12 2024
Imagine a beautiful, bright spring day when you can at last feel the sun’s warmth on your face, take in the fresh air and relax in the outdoors. After a spring hike, a visit to the sugar shack or an afternoon reading a good book in peace by a fire, there’s nothing better than treating yourself to some cozy, comforting moments in the evening.
Throughout the region, welcoming chalets, cozy inns and relaxing resorts are there for you to unwind and recharge your batteries. Dim the lights, light a few candles, slip on some comfy socks and make yourself some delicious hot chocolate: it’s time to relax. Here are just a few of the magical places where you can do this.
Escale au Lac
Enjoy exceptional mini-chalets in perfect harmony with nature. In an enchanting environment, you can take in the goodness of the outdoors while savouring the cozy comfort and services of a hotel. Our eco-friendly thermal bath and spa will complete your stay.
Les Chalets Tourisma
A rustic pine cottage, a country home, a luxurious log cabin and even a cabin on the shores of the St. Lawrence—these are the options we offer at Les Chalets Tourisma! Relaxation and happiness guaranteed.
Au Chalet en Bois Rond
A veritable tourist village nestled in the heart of nature and the great outdoors, with 79 superb log cabins. You can relax by a crackling fire and prepare yourself a comforting meal—or even have your meal catered or prepared by an in-cabin chef!
Le Domaine du Grand Portneuf
Get away from it all and recharge your batteries. This resort in Pont-Rouge boasts 40 tastefully decorated villas that blend perfectly with the natural surroundings of this immense wooded area on the banks of the Portneuf River.
Le Roquemont
The ideal spot to escape to the great outdoors. Stay at the hotel or in a modern mini-chalet and enjoy the fully chalet-like atmosphere at the restaurant or microbrewery. This is just what you need for a fulfilling getaway.
You can also opt for a 4-star chalet at Domaine de la Passerelle or a nature-and-yoga retreat at Villa Éco, recharge your batteries at Station récréotouristique du Lac Blanc, visit a foodies village while staying at Auberge de l’Ouest or experience manor life at Demeure du Capitaine.

Cozy food
If you’d like to make the most of your accommodations and enjoy a good meal on site, the region’s agrifood producers and processors will take care of (almost) everything! Visit a local farm store, gourmet grocery, cheese factory, bakery or vineyard to get the best of Portneuf’s products. Find out more here.
And if you don’t feel like cooking, head to one of the region’s microbreweries and restaurants: they are always happy to serve up local flavours.
Portneuf has a cozy solution for every season. With the milder weather returning in spring, we make the most of nature as it awakens and boost our well-being by living each moment to the fullest. Enjoy your stay in #unbeatablePortneuf!
