Les Refuges Perchés Mont-Tremblant

This place is remarkable if you want to get away from it all and relax. It is NOT comparative to a hotel experience, so set your expectations accordingly and you will have a wonderful time.25 min backroad drive from the main highway near Mont Tremblant you will arrive at Parc Eco /Refuges Perches - a protected wilderness environment.Check in was easy, super nice staff. Quite a few instructions to learn on arrival but they explain very well. You'll walk from the check in center to your treehouse by foot or canoe (optional in summer). The walk can be from 5 - 20mins depending on your treehouse. The trails in the forests are well marked and the walk sets the tone for the back to nature experience. You are provided with pull carts or pull sleds (when snow) to transport your bags and a welcome kit of essentials like a battery power pack, ice, firewood, water and other supplies which are collected from check in)Tip DON'T take too much luggage, you have to pull the carts yourselves which will get your heart beating. We took our own sleeping bags and pillows and some easy to cook food, books and music on our phones. We also had our small dog with us (dogs are allowed on leash) and she was enjoying every minute.The treehouses themselves are located into 2 distinct areas, east and west side of the lake. We stayed in the west side area which was about a 20 min hike in.Our treehouse # 11, was wonderful, tucked away in the woods with neighbouring units nearby but not too close. It had a single open plan main room 2 double bunk beds and 2 bench beds that could sleep 6. We were just 2 this time, if we were 6 adults together sharing that space it would be tight, but a family with kids would be fine. Ours had a rooftop terrace and exterior eating section under the main structure. The treehouses are well made simple wood structures, all freestanding and individually styled. Some even have rope bridges. All very clean.Inside there was a propane stove, large Coleman for food storage, slow burning stove and electric lights that use the supplied power pack, fold up table and chairs.Other basic essentials, cutlery and cleaning supplies were also included. Outside was a small gas BBQ.After getting the slow burning stove fired up, the sun was setting and we started to relax with a glass of wine. There's no wifi at the treehouses (there is at the check in center) so it was nice to be off the grid for once and just enjoy some peace and quiet.As night fell it was very cozy and warm in the treehouse with the slow burning stove and candles - one thing we learned was not to load the stove too much before bed as it can get very very warm.There are lots of hiking, country and snowshoe trails in the park and the main lake was a 7 minute walk away (some treehouses are lakefront). We stayed just after the first snowfall, it was beautiful.I imagine in the summer it would be even more magical with the lake to explore. The whole experience is very back to nature and eco orientated and they really practice a leave no trace policy, be prepared to use outhouses for toilets, cook simply and entertain yourselves.Showers, amenities and wifi are available back at the check in center if needed.Overall this was a perfect getaway to relax and reconnect to nature, the extra effort to carry in our stuff and the 'simple camp' feel just added to the experience. I imagine kids would truly enjoy it as it's like an adventure and the parents would probably appreciate the time out from smartphones.A strong recommendation.

We spent 4 days here at the treehouse #18. The place is awesome, very peaceful and the perfect place to observe some wild life at dawn and twilight, and chill throughout the day!We arrived just after a big storm that shut down the electricity and the reception was very busy but made sure we had everything we needed for our stay.Lovely place, lovely people, would defenitly go there again!

Best camping trip ever!! Would go again next year.

Amazing staff and experience! A bit of a workout getting to your treehouse but definitely worth it!

Awesome place to stay. Quite quiet and peaceful. All workers there were super nice all the time. The showers are super clean!We stayed at house 3 and we also rented a canoe. The house was very close to the dock, so it took us only a few steps to go from the house to the dock and back. The firepit was also right next to the house.There are some nice hikes you can take. You can do hikes on foot or part on foot part by canoe/kayak. There is kind a waterfall on the east coast, easily accessible by canoe or on foot.The only 'negative' point is that the internet connection is quite slow in the reception center.The rest is simply awesome! It I ever need silence and peace, I will go back to this amazing treehouse to recharge my batteries ❤️

Spent 2 nights in treehouse 12 in early fall and it was an antidote to the stress of modern living.My partner and I loved getting in after a long day of hiking and canoeing and lighting a fire. The staff are taking many COVID specific precautions and the facilities were well equipped and maintained.It can sometimes be a challenge hauling in water and supplies, and disposing of waste properly but you fall into the habit quickly enough. We opted out of having power and quite enjoyed the more rustic experience. Be sure to bring plenty of candles though!!We're looking forward to coming back in the winter and enjoying a whole different kind of experience. Thanks Nancy and everyone working behind the scenes to make our trip a success.

We visited this beautiful place for 3 nights in October & it was amazing! The staff are friendly and accommodating 100% of the time, the Tree houses are equipped with the necessities & the views are stunning! Fall was such a great time to visit, we used 2 bags of fire wood over the 3 nights and the tree houses do warm up quite quickly. The trails are wonderful and our dog loved every minute away. If you are looking to disconnect and be surrounded by nature, this is the place! Remember to do as the site says and pack light, just makes it easier on you getting to the cabin! A must see, we will be back! Cheers!

We spent two nights in treehouse 8. It was so beautiful there! It was also quite peaceful.Nancy checked us in and out, and she's just great. All the staff we encountered were super friendly.Our treehouse was clean and well equipped with a wood stove, gas camping stove, and basic kitchen utensils and dishes.I recommend preparing meals in advance and bringing candles, though you can pick up some candles at the pavilion, or a power pack.We went in March. We snowshoed and had campfires, and no pesky bugs were out yet. The nights got chilly, but the woodstove emits a tonne of heat. The outhouse was clean and had a maintenance checklist, so you could see how often it was maintained.We're going back! Highly recommended.

Amazing place, we chose the Rock house lot 20. We had are own dock and bathroom. There is no electricity other than a battery for 2 lights. Highly recommend to anyone who likes slightly fancier camping. Also West bank lots are a 20 min hike with hand carts so dont pack too much.

Great place. Quiet beautiful landscapes. Nice hiking paths. The cabins are definitely on the simple and rustic side. But the point is, of course, a rich man"'s camping rather than an all included Hotel. The place is eco-responsible and the info boards on the trail are really interesting!"
