Wedding ceremony set up facing Lac des Sables, chairs lined up by the water

Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts, Laurentians

A lakeside
wedding venue

A private inn facing Lac des Sables: four celebration spaces, 18 bedrooms for your guests and 65 seated at dinner. One wedding at a time, and your suppliers stay your own.

Why here

A wedding venue where you are not on the third floor or squeezed between two receptions.

The Auberge du Lac des Sables is a privately rented tourist residence in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts, 1 hour 15 minutes from Montreal. We host only one wedding per weekend. The house, the grounds and the shoreline are yours from Friday at 4 p.m. until Sunday.

Your guests sleep on site: 18 bedrooms, 21 bathrooms, lodging for 54 people. Nobody drives after the party, and the next morning everyone has breakfast together facing the lake. Couples tell us this is what they remember most.

You choose your caterer, photographer, DJ and decorator. We impose no suppliers and take no commission. The commercial kitchen, tableware, glassware and table linens are already here.

Do we have to use your caterer?

No. You are free to choose your caterer, chef or suppliers. We take no commission and impose no one. We can suggest the suppliers we know well if you would rather not search.

Can we bring our own wine?

What happens if it rains on the wedding day?

The Panoramic Room and La Tourelle host the ceremony indoors, with a view of the lake. The backup plan is set in advance, not improvised that morning.

Is there only one wedding at a time?

Yes. We host only one wedding per weekend. The Auberge, the grounds and the shoreline are yours alone.

How long is a wedding rental?

The wedding package is a two-night weekend, with private use from Friday at 4 p.m. until Sunday departure.

How much does a wedding at the Auberge du Lac des Sables cost?

The rate depends on the number of bedrooms, the number of guests and the season. The calculator on the Packages page gives an instant estimate, and we then prepare a detailed proposal.

Is there a good spot for the couple's photos?

Yes: the shore of Lac des Sables, Terrasse 180, La Tourelle, and Plage Major a few minutes away on foot, one of our favourite photo spots.
