At Charlevoix's latitude, the St. Lawrence is already 20 km wide: this is the estuary, the water turns brackish, tides reach 5 to 7 metres, and whales come up in summer. Seeing this landscape from a chalet over morning coffee changes the quality of the stay itself.
Our chalets in Cap-à-l'Aigle, La Malbaie, are all oriented south-west on the heights above the bay. Depending on the chalet, you see:
- La Malbaie Bay with the harbour and the Pointe-au-Pic pier
- The Malbaie River estuary flowing into the St. Lawrence
- Mont des Éboulements (emblematic peak of the Charlevoix crater)
- The islands: Isle-aux-Coudres to the south-west, and on clear days, the south shore of the river
The Le Littoral chalet offers the most open view from its rooftop terrace, pool and panoramic living room. L'Embâcle features two 180° terraces (morning and evening) on green roofs. Les Thermes opens to the river from its main living areas. Le Ruisseau, set on a hillside, frames the river from its nineteen-foot mezzanine and three suites. La Blanche captures the sunsets and the estuary's reflections from its cantilevered living room.
