Other things to note Some important details for a smooth stay at Exode en Nature: 🐾 Pets Dogs under 50 lbs are welcome, provided they are kept on a leash at all times on site.

Thank you for your understanding. 🚶‍♂️ Access to the accommodation A trail of about 600 feet separates the parking lot from your unit. 🚭 General rules All our accommodations are non-smoking. Each booking includes a maximum of two parking spaces. There is no television, but you will have access to Wi-Fi, perfect for disconnecting... or for teleworking in the heart of nature! 🛁 Your private wood-fired hot tub – an authentic experience The Nordic bath is accessible all year round and operates with a wood heating system, surrounded by nature and the sound of the river. It's a two-step ritual that reconnects you to the present moment. You'll need to light the fire yourself to heat the water — a great way to immerse yourself in the experience! 💡 In winter, it takes 5 to 6 hours of heating the first day. The temperature will then be easier to maintain for the following days. Note that in times of intense cold (below -20°C), you may not be able to reach an optimal temperature, despite your efforts. No preheating service is offered, so you can fully enjoy this nature experience at your own pace. 🌲 Total immersion in the forest You are in the middle of nature: it is therefore possible to come across insects, small animals or even wildlife. This is part of the charm of the place and is not related to the cleanliness of the place, which is a priority. We invite you to close the doors properly to avoid unwanted visitors.
