Vacations alone or as a couple
There is no place like Jouvence
By yourself, between friends or with your special someone, enter a quiet and peaceful world in the heart of a majestic landscape. Time itself will seem to have stopped...
Le Centre de Villégiature Jouvence is nestled in the heart of Parc du Mont Orford, on the shore of Stukely Lake. Our nature resort is a quiet, peaceful and invigorating destination for a holiday on your own, as a couple or with friends. We offer a wide range of packages and activities to make your stay a very pleasurable one in any season.
La Petite Auberge
To rest, take care of yourself, appreciate the beauty all around you, and get away from the hectic work environment for the sole pleasure of getting together; this is why La Petite Auberge was created. With a waterfall providing the background music, a river, a breathtaking view and even a hammock to sway to and fro, alone or with a friend – all that’s missing is you. Add to this an innkeeper whose only mission is your total well-being, and you have the magic recipe for a real vacation.
Intimate vacations
Although primarily designed for families, the Centre de Villégiature offers a number of small cabins perfectly adapted for couples on vacation. Or, if solitude is what you’re looking for to complete a personal project in a comfortable and quiet small cottage, Jouvence is the ideal location.

Refuge de la Sarracénie
In perfect harmony with Jouvence’s mission, which is to bring you closer to nature, the Sarracénie is a small cabin located in parc national du Mont-Orford. Just 1.2 km from Jouvence’s welcome centre, this beautiful site is on Castorie Pond where you can admire the amazing work of the resident beavers. The Sarracénie cabin was remodeled in 2009. It includes a large open area for the living room, wood stove, dining room, and mezzanine. The cabin comfortably accommodates 4 to 8 people.

An imaginative staff
Every day during peak season, a guide and recreationist suggests and leads an arts activity (drawing or painting workshop, show, etc.) or an outdoor air activity to take advantage of the season (sailing, forest hiking, cross-country skiing, etc.).
Guests have access to all the outdoor activity equipment available on the site, and can enjoy a wide range of free or unsupervised activities. You can choose to do nothing but be good to yourself! And don't forget our Nature Spa...
