Since 1960
Our history
The Estate is developing a national popular recreational site, recognized for its quality and variety. Over time, we have succeeded in developing a remarkable bond and loyalty with our customers and our employees. It is the presence of high quality water from Mont-St-Hilaire and the beauty of the place that inspired the founder and architect Maurice Robillard and his wife Gertrude Fontaine. The Robillard family innovated by offering the first campground in Quebec and by building one of the first public golf courses. Today, we serve over 200,000 visitors annually.
