Our beautiful inn (which looks more like a manor) has 30 rooms. It was built in 1988 in Pointe-du-Lac, halfway between Montreal and Quebec City, on the North shore of the St. Lawrence River. It overlooks the river and gives our guests an amazing view of a breathtaking landscape.
The owners, Jean-Guy Morissette and Gisèle Poliquin, both natives of the region, love Lac Saint-Pierre and enjoy sharing their passion with their guests. They are also the managers of the inn, and over the years have assembled a welcoming and loyal staff.

In the past, the site of the Auberge du Lac Saint-Pierre was called "Pointe Amérindienne". In fact, in the 17th century, the Attikamegs used to make their summer camp on that site. Later, in 1738, the town that was built there borrowed the name and was thus called Pointe-du-Lac.
At Pointe-du-Lac,
the St. Lawrence River widens to become a huge and magnificent lake.
Thirty kilometres farther, in front of Sorel, it again narrows before
reaching Montreal.
Its name, "Lac Saint-Pierre", was given in 1603 by Samuel de Champlain while he was sailing through it on June 19th, on the feast of St. Peter.
