The space
Construit en 1960, bâtiment entièrement rénové. Matériaux nobles et chaleureux: cèdres, tôles, acier corteen. Il conserve son ambiance feutré et dégage un style très chaleureux, en offrant toutes les commodités. Le salon est extrêmement confortable, un foyer permettra de réchauffer le bâtiment et de créer un atmosphère zen et relaxant . Vous y retrouverez une panoplie de livres et encyclopédies pour les plus curieux. Vous avez le besoin de vous évader...c'est votre place à l'Ile du Cheval.

Le vestiaire de l’Île du Cheval a été pensé comme un espace de transition entre le monde extérieur et le rythme du fleuve.
On y dépose ses bottes encore couvertes de sable, son manteau imprégné d’air salin, puis doucement… le séjour commence.

Le bois patiné, les bancs rustiques, les couvertures de laine, les cartes de l’île et les objets laissés à portée de main racontent une façon d’habiter le territoire avec simplicité et attention.

Au centre du vestiaire, une petite table ancienne invite naturellement à ralentir.
Une partie de Scrabble ou autres jeux de société, qui s’étire en soirée, un café chaud après la grève, quelques crayons laissés pour dessiner, écrire ou simplement prendre le temps.

Un endroit vivant, chaleureux, conçu pour revenir d’une marche sur la grève, partager un moment ensemble et regarder la lumière changer à travers les fenêtres.

Ici, même l’arrivée fait partie de l’expérience.
4 chambres , 4 grands lits, planchers chauffants, une salle d'eau, une salle de bain complète, une douche extérieure, une grande terrasse vue sur le fleuve. Vous aurez accès à la cuisine complète de la grange ainsi qu'une cuisine extérieure :BBQ, plaque de cuisson, fumoir.
À l’image des camps de chasse traditionnels, la vie s’organise entre deux bâtiments : le dortoir pour le repos et la grange pour les repas. Avec sa grande table pouvant accueillir jusqu’à 12 personnes, la grange devient le cœur du séjour, un lieu de rassemblement où l’on prépare les repas, partage les récits de la journée et profite simplement du plaisir d’être ensemble.
