Sleeping on Water: An Energizing Stay at Audacieuses Évasions

We take energy where we can find it, and that is especially under the grayness of the Fall season! During our stay at Audacieuses Évasions, an accommodation center in Preissac, that’s what we did. In order to survive the month of November, an excursion to a floating cottage helps in taking your mind off of troubles! Keep reading if you are curious!
Nothing less than floating cottages to accommodate you in any season. There are two types: the Nanovasions, a small cabin, or the Studiovasion, a highly comfortable cottage. For my experience, we are welcomed at the Studiovasion.


Discover the Studiovasion: a comfortable floating chalet

We arrived early Friday night, the Sun was already on its way down. Raphaël, one of the owners, comes right up to meet us.

Our belongings now in the trailer, he explains the path to take. Inside the Studiovasion, Raphaël takes the time to show us around and to share the rules for safety.

I know that you are wondering: yes, the cottage is on the water, but it is stable. It does not rock. The surroundings do remind us that we are located on water, as well as the silver moon rays at night reflecting on the water surface.

Eating and sleeping: a complete water experience

A private spa, as well as an outdoor fireplace are available near the cottage. When it comes to our plans, we will spend some time enjoying a raclette for dinner. We brought our food. The kitchen is fully equipped so it’s easy to find tools and dishes.
Once our long meal is well savored, the moon rays on the black and shiny surface of the lake create a magical ambiance. We have only one thing in mind and it’s to vibe to the rhythm of the NeuroBed! Did you ever try a vibrating bed? Following the program of your choice, the bed vibrates in unison with relaxing music. Good night, sleep tight!

Waking up on the water: an unforgettable morning on Lake Preissac

Of course, since the night arrived early, the morning followed the same trend. Thus we woke up at dawn.
Having a good coffee while admiring the sun rise over the Lac Preissac, it is not bad at all. We could experience several lighting moods over our surroundings. We even had everything for a great breakfast, to the height of our happiness.
The Studiovasion cottage has all the comfort of a home. Electricity, running water and a complete bathroom are among the well thought design of the space. We are far from a rustic experience! That allows more easily to focus on what matters most: our company, our basic needs, and rest.

The Nanovasions: floating cocoons for an intimate escape

Concerning the Nanovasions, they are (you guessed it) smaller accommodations that are more modest as well. These cabins are also located on the water. They remind us of cocoons where one can find rest, inspiration and comfort. You can rent it only for the day if you wish to enjoy the spa and the surrounding nature. How great of a gift is that for people who have a very busy life!

No matter the season, whether in the Fall or in the Winter, there is no better way to recharge than to experience the calm of water and the comfort of the accommodations at Audacieuses Évasions. A well planned excursion that reminds us that sometimes, all we need is a place to let go. Would that not be a key element in surviving the grayness of the Fall season?
