A lakeside outfitter lodge at Lac-Douaire in the Laurentians, best known as a snowmobile base with log cabins, sled rentals and generous multi-course meals, run by a very hands-on team.
What visitors say
Pourvoirie Mekoos near Mont-Laurier offers lakeside log cabins, lodge rooms and a restaurant. Most reviewers visit in winter as snowmobilers, either staying several nights or stopping for lunch on the trail, and it has a very high rating across hundreds of reviews.
Cabins are described as bright and very clean, with full kitchens and a bin of dry firewood for the stove. Check-in and snowmobile rentals are quick. The food gets as much praise as the lodging, with generous breakfasts and multi-course dinners, and one rider stopping for lunch enjoyed the sandwiches and fries. Staff and owners are named again and again for friendly, attentive service.
The standout story comes from a guest whose sled broke down 80 km away with no tow available for two days. The lodge sent someone to pick him up and trailer the machine back. Riders say the trails are well maintained even in low-snow years, and there is Wi-Fi, which helps given limited cell reception in the area.
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive. One lunch visitor found the beer selection basic and waited in line at the single payment station on a busy day. The reviews focus almost entirely on winter, so ask about summer activities if you're planning a warm-weather trip.
