The hype
The location, private beach, and outdoor amenities are incredible, but the service and value-for-money often miss the mark.

İnsanlar Neden Seviyorlar
- Massive private sandy beach on the stunning Reservoir Taureau
- Extensive free outdoor gear rentals (kayaks, snowshoes, skates)
- Excellent indoor/outdoor pool and Nordic spa complex
Hızlı Özet: The wilderness setting is spectacular, but the mandatory $20-per-person daily resort fee and expensive, small-portioned dining can make this rustic getaway feel like a luxury cash grab.
@wonderlens.travels tarafından değerlendirildi: Our weekend at Auberge Du Lac Taureau was the ultimate winter dream. We went from dog sledding and snow tubing to soaking in a steaming outdoor hot tub surrounded by snow. Warming up by our cozy fireplace with breakfast was the cherry on top. Highly recommend for couples!

SSS & Gizli İpuçları
Rezervasyon yapmadan önce bilmeniz gereken her şey.
Is the resort fee really mandatory?
Yes. It's $20 CAD per person, per night. It covers access to the pools, trails, and seasonal equipment rentals, but it adds up fast for families.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, dogs are allowed in specific units (like the Coolbox) for a hefty fee of $150 CAD per stay.
Is there an elevator?
Only one of the three main inn buildings (La Verge d'Or) has an elevator. The others require climbing stairs.
Can I bring my own food?
Yes, rooms have mini-fridges, and condos/Coolboxes have kitchenettes. Bringing your own snacks is highly recommended given the restaurant prices.
What is the beach like?
It's a massive, beautiful private sandy beach on Reservoir Taureau, complete with loungers, volleyball, and a beach bar.
Do I need to book activities in advance?
It's recommended to book spa treatments and motorized rentals (like snowmobiles) ahead of time, but non-motorized gear is usually available on demand.
İçeri Sakıları
- ✨
Bring your own wine and snacks to enjoy on your balcony or by the lake to save a ton of money.
- ✨
The Sunday brunch at Le Cerf Rouge is widely considered the best meal on the property—book it even if you skip dinner there.
- ✨
If you rent a Coolbox, you get a private glamping vibe but still have full access to the resort's luxury pools and spa.
Gitmeden önce bilmeniz gereken 5 şey
💡The sheer size of Reservoir Taureau—it's a massive, stunning body of water that feels more like an ocean bay than a lake.
💡The 'calorie-calculated' small portions at the fine-dining restaurant, which leave some hikers and snowmobilers hungry.
💡The strict 11 PM outdoor noise curfew for cottages, though main resort areas can still get loud.
💡The lack of elevators in two of the three main buildings, meaning you might be lugging bags up three flights of stairs.
💡The electric vehicle charging stations on-site, which are a lifesaver given the remote location.
