The studio is a bright and open space with high ceilings, a living room, kitchenette and sleeping area (sofa bed), separate bathroom with shower and a compost toilet. Enjoy the peace and quiet in the heart of nature, with many nearby activities such as sightseeing in Québec city, local markets and trekking at nearby national parks. The main house is made of straw with solar panels.

The studio is an open concept with one large room (22 x 12 feet) for the kitchenette, dining room, living room with a comfortable sofa bed. The bathroom is separate with all you need - a shower, sink, toilet, cabinet for clothes and linens. The main door opens directly on the garden level where you can walk and relax on the property and enjoy nature. There is a bistro table with chairs, a plateforme with a hamac and picnic table, a rocking bench overlooking the river and a yoga plateforme for you to use to enjoy your stay here.

Please note that the studio has a compost toilet (without odor) and that Internet is not wifi but cabled, with adaptors provided to connect to a laptop with a USB entry slot, USB-C and for an iPhone.

When you rent the studio, you support the development of the Maïa Gardens, a start up project in human and ecological permaculture. Thanks!
