I'm in Kamouraska, the land of my maternal ancestors. My mom and brother and I booked an entire inn to ourselves. It's noice. The St. Lawrence River is actually saltwater up here.

Right around Ile d'Orléans close to Quebec City.

The St. Lawrence - Baleines en direct

The St. Lawrence River originates in the Great Lakes on the border between Canada and the United States. Stretching 2,000 km (excluding the Great Lakes), the watercourse is divided into three sectors: the River, the Estuary and the Gulf. The Saint-Lawrence alone collects 1% of the rainwater that

Yeah. I think the whole region is struggling to attract peeps here in the winter, there's no ski resort or anything. Used to be a fishing town. Now it's a bunch of inns that get booked during the summer.

It's absolutely gorgeous, but also kind of desolate.
 
One cool thing about being a Quebecer is that the Catholic church has always kept amazing records.

Our first plan was to book the historical house that once belonged to my mom's aunt, but they didn't want kids around their pool for insurance reasons. Anyway, a simple Google search reveals that aunt's full name, date of birth and death, location of her tombstone, and the fact that her house once belonged to the guy who wrote the original lyrics to O Canada. :ohmy: :canada:
 
Yah, probably need to hire specialized contractors. The owners live in more modern construction next door. Lots of inns are set up that way here. I'd be interested to look at their financials, it seems like a tough business to be in. Way too seasonal here.
