You can't beat the price and location of Auberge Mountain View. Sure, it's an older facility but very clean and well maintained with large grounds surrounded by trees to sit out and relax. Full cooked breakfast can be included for a low price to start your day. A pot of coffee is available very early in the dining room and is far better quality than what hotels provide in the rooms. We stayed 4 nights and highly recommend it. One of only 3 places in the area that allow pets.

We stayed here for one night on an excursion into the Laurentides (booked by the Montreal Information Office). It's just outside St Jovite, and is pretty much targetted at the outdoor activities market (Mt Tremblant being just down the road). It's all a bit simple and slightly worn in places (small bed, no coffee in rooms) but Andreas gave us a very warm welcome and found us a kettle to make a brew while the worst of the rain passed. Evening meals are available in the restaurant if you order beforehand, but if you want to walk out in the evening, Le Sentier du Village is a diner selling decent food and local beers a kilometre down the road back towards St J. This Auberge isn't the flashiest place in the area by any means, but with a warm welcome and breakfast for two cooked to order for $C80, it's more than adequate and hard to beat for value for money.
