timbo Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 Krissy, Sabra and I have been riding out of Montagne Coupee in St Jean de Matha for the last few days and are enjoying a jumbo good time. Trails have been good. In the south they need a foot of snow, but riding has been average to good. Past St-Zenon, north, mid-winter is here. Can't say enough good about Montagne Coupee. Mebbee not for those who wish to travel "budget city", but if you are traveling in La Belle Provence and want to have a special time with significant others, this place is off the charts. Mom, or Jennifer, will like it. Play Hard might want to chime in. Saw him here last winter when I was passing thru. Timbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida Snowman Posted January 24, 2015 Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Hey Timbo, Glad you like Montagne Coupee. Stayed there for a week with my wife & 3 kids 10-12 years ago. Great place. Loved the food & service. Glad they are still doing well. Enjoy! Tom Edited January 24, 2015 by Florida Snowman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbo Posted January 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Just got back to Slowville. We left the Coupee at 8AM and pulled in at 5PM. I had forgotten just how delightful it is driving thru Montreal late morning on a Sunday, compared to the traditional jug-screw weekdays. From the security standpoint, they were most accommodating at the Montagne Coupee. The "barn" is large enough that I parked my 4-sled enclosed Worthington inside; together with our three sleds and about 25 other machines. Kinda nice when it comes time to load-up and head home, and your rig has been in a heated (55F) space. They have "opened" another smaller garage adjacent to the big building, and they can accommodate another 15 or so sleds in there. As always, the cuisine is outrageous!! Trails, both north and south, good to very good the entire 6 days we were there........Including the areas around Louiseville where they were having the big snowcross event this weekend. Haven't seen so many sleds on the trails since we went to Valcourt 15 years ago. They were grooming big time. Obviously, I'm sure the groomer operators would have appreciated more snow-cover, but they did a great job with what they had to work with the last couple of days with heavy traffic and no new snow. Montagne Coupee. A gem in Lenaudiere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbo Posted January 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Andyman Thaddeus and I are psyched for our excursion, as well. I'm glad I have 500 miles on the new AXYS switchie before we go on our 14 day "galavantation" across QC and ON. The new sled is the tits!! See you trailside on the way to 100 Lacs. If you happen to wander into Dave & Eddie stumbling around in the puckerbrush that morning, police-em up (:-). timbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PLAYHARD Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Play Hard might want to chime in. Saw him here last winter when I was passing thru. Timbo Hell yes! Thank goodness for a few riding buddies who prefer a "spa" tour each season. This place kicks major ass. But watch out for friendly folks at the next table sending over local fire-water!

timbo Posted February 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Good to hear from you, Playhard! Hope your winter goes well. Try to avoid the "local firewater" ! timbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 Beautiful place but the theft from there has been terrible. Don't know about recently however. I had to go up and pick up friends who had everything stolen. Their servers at dinner did everything they could to stall them and then one of the went outside and everything was gone! The folks at the hotel did not seem to care one bit and were frankly rather flipped about it. Perhaps they have changed their ways. The accommodations and food were outstanding.
