Auberge des îles

This modern resort is available all year round space for families, sports enthusiasts, couples or business people. 

For the more adventurous, the Auberge offers a variety of outdoor activities: visit the islands by kayak or paddleboard, by cross-country skiing or snowshoeing, go for a bike ride on the Véloroute des bleuets or have a game of golf. In winter, snowmobile trails are eminently accessible!

The Auberge des îles can boast of being one of the rare inns to have a 25m indoor pool. Ideal for swimming laps, it has two corridors with a wonderful view of the lake and its islands. The modern gym has the latest high-tech equipment to entice both amateurs and high-level athletes.

Would you prefer to take it easy? The 8-seat indoor spa is perfect for a relaxing moment with a view of Lac Saint-Jean. If you feel like reading, working or relaxing with friends, the collaborative workspace offers a multifunctional space with sitting areas, work space and even a massage therapy chair.

Children are not left out at Auberge des îles as there is always something to do, rain or shine. In addition to the outdoor playground with its endless possibilities, it offers an indoor interactive playroom that includes a tactile flooring, video games, crafts and reading area, perfectly suited for ages 2 to 16. The little ones can also have hours of fun in the indoor water games.

As the cradle of agriculture in the region, Lac-Saint-Jean is a huge food pantry. Over the years, local producers have created high-quality products. Highlighting them is the mission of Rang 9, Auberge des île's restaurant-experience. It offers without a doubt the most beautiful view of the lake from its dining room as well as from its magnificent terrace. Fine cheeses, artisanal bread, microbrewery beers, market vegetables, boreal spices, the chef makes our guests taste the pleasures of the region.
