We saw it with the gentle snowflakes that began to fall as soon as the Halloween candy went on clearance. November has officially arrived. The lack of daylight and the start of electric heating in our homes just make me want to wrap myself up in a blanket and hibernate. Forget about me until March… maybe even April! For all these reasons, I want us to embrace all things cozy and warm. Here are some recommendations for charming, cozy lodges in Abitibi-Témiscamingue. They’re perfect for couples, families, or solo travelers. No matter who’s with you, these are the places to relax and make it through November!
Témiscamingue Cocoons
Domaine Témikami is also located in Témiscamingue and offers a variety of chalets, both large and small. This is ideal for group getaways. Plus, each chalet has a spa on its own terrace facing the stunning Lake Témiscamingue!
Camping du P’tit Paradis offers a four-season experience in a dome! It has everything you need for a cozy stay, including electricity. You can enjoy a fondue, bring some books, and make it your go-to spot to relax.
A Bed & Breakfast in Abitibi-Ouest
Abitibi-Ouest, let me take you to Gîte le Presbytère, in Colombourg. This is a nice change from the typical chalet, as it’s a Bed & Breakfast! The warm hosts welcome you as if you were family. The place has kept its vintage charm – it’s simply delightful!
A Bold Experience in Amos-Harricana
At Audacieuses Évasions, you can sleep on the water! This is a one-of-a-kind experience in the region, open all year round. When the water isn’t frozen, the chalets float, and when it is, they rest on the ice. There are small cabins called “Nanovasion” and a larger one called “Studiovasion.” In any case, all the comforts you need are provided. Plus, with the chalets on the water, you’re surrounded by nature. Total tranquility…
Unplugged in Rouyn-Noranda
Les Racines du P’tit Isidore is a lodging complex on the road to Aiguebelle National Park. The accommodations vary, from yurts to chalets, all secluded in the forest. This is the ultimate place for a digital detox, accessible year-round!
In a Bubble in Vallée-de-l’Or
In Vallée-de-l’Or, on Siscoe Island just minutes from Val-d’Or, there’s Station Boréale! Here, you sleep in a luxurious eco-dome. It has all the comforts of a hotel room, but in the heart of nature. Right nearby, there’s a restaurant, so you can dine well without having to cook. If you prefer staying in, no worries – the dome’s kitchen is equipped! You can even plan a breakfast with your booking, ready for you when you wake up.
To survive November and its long, gray hours, planning a few nights in a cozy lodge in Abitibi-Témiscamingue is a great idea. It’ll lift your spirits and let you disconnect. Which of these lodges speaks to you most?
