NANOK

NANOK
thermal experience with barrel sauna, spa and cold outdoor shower

Embedded in family origins, the Nanok is a reminder to cherish the moments shared with our loved ones. Come create everlasting memories, come enjoy the Nanok’s experience.

This name, shrouded in mystery yet evocative, encapsulates the very essence that thrives within this micro cabin. Nanok derives from the initial letters of the owners’ and their children’s names, embodying the unity and family warmth that emanate from this haven of comfort and well-being.

At Nanok, life happens outdoors. With two terraces and two patio heaters, everything is in place to stretch out your evenings under the sky, even when the air gets crisp. It’s also the only cabin on the mountain that offers a true hot/cold thermal experience, a real treat for mountain biking enthusiasts (and fans of our bike & sleep formula) looking to unwind after a day riding the region’s best trails. Start with a soak in the hot tub or a good sweat in the sauna, follow it with an invigorating rinse under the cold outdoor shower, and enjoy full-body, mind-clearing relaxation.

At Nanok, you’ll love lounging, with only the gentle serenade of the surrounding nature as your soundtrack. Close your eyes and let this symphony lull you, soothe you, transform you.

"If Quebec is on your travel radar, this place is an absolute must-stay. Picture-perfect design, awe-inspiring vistas, and an ambiance that oozes comfort and luxury await you. The sauna alone is worth the visit, and thoughtful touches like fresh flowers upon arrival elevate the experience. From a fully equipped kitchen to blissfully comfortable beds that guarantee the best sleep ever, every aspect was meticulously crafted for our enjoyment. Count me in for a return trip – without a doubt, this one’s a solid 10/10."

"The Nanok was just as described; we were fortunate to have some fresh snow on day of arrival and pure (cold) sunshine for 2 full days. Seeing the sunrise was absolutely stunning, the use of the Electric Sauna was a huge plus as we used it several times per day. The heated floors were also great given the extremely cold weather. The Hiking/snowshoeing trails are just down the road and can be accessed very close to here. Although they did have recommendations for restaurants in the area, we opted to enjoy the the place and cook. Overall, really great experience for when you're looking to escape the city and enjoy nature."

"We had an amazing stay at NANOK.The pictures in the listing is a very good representation of what the place looks like. The floor-plan is extremely well thought-through with functional spaces in mind. The colours and interior are well composed letting the surroundings and breathtaking view take centre-stage, giving a feeling of continuity. This was really the perfect getaway for us, both being very tired and in need of re-charging our batteries. The proximity to Quebec City allowed us to effortlessly transition from cityscape to being immersed in nature depending on how we felt in the morning waking up. Haven’t slept this well in months. We ended up extending our stay an extra night."
