Fodor's Expert Review Gite Du Haut des Arbres

With nine tastefully decorated modern rooms in a spectacular setting overlooking the fjord, this family-owned and operated "gite" is a nature lover's paradise located less than 10 minutes from the center of Chicoutimi. The owners—along with their pets (including one pot-bellied pig)—are welcoming and lovely, the grounds and landscaping marvelous, the breakfast (starting at C$12) varied and delicious, and the sunsets viewed from their large, windswept veranda, unparalleled. Modern, unique, eco-friendly, quiet and comfortable, this exceptional B&B is a real find—and with some rooms starting from as low as C$89 a night, a bona fide bargain to boot.
