Off The Beaten Path: La Maison Croche (The Crooked House)

  • As we were biking around the island, we came upon this crooked house aptly called "La Maison Croche". All the windows are tilted one way or the other, and apparently the house was built by a dying man who loved bending the rules and moving away from tradition. The house is open to visitors who wish to find out more about its history. Also, right across the street, you'll see a huge tower - it is home to a nightclub called "Le Donjon" (The Dungeon). The two buildings are now part of the "Hotel-Motel Ecume par la Houle" complex. A little corner of originality at 3095 Chemin des Coudriers, on the northeastern part of l'Ile-aux-Coudres!

     Voilà un magnifique endroit pour se reposer, peut être méditer ou alors faire du vélo ou de la voile.
