Eco-Odyssee

Unique experience, very well done. If you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing experience, this is great. One suggestion is to not get the paddleboat if you want peace and quiet, since they do make some noise when paddling. We went by canoe and it was great.
The bathrooms were really clean. The docks for the canoes were well-planned so that getting in and and out was easy.

Very cool eco-trourism site. Family oriented and good experience together in the water maze, animal scavenger hunt. (But a bit pricy)

Belle première expérience a cet endroit, ça été plaisant, nous avons pris un pédalo pour cette première fois, pas facile, la prochaine fois nous allons utiliser un canoë je crois que ça sera une meilleure expérience.

The kayaking trip was great. We were able to go around first thing in the morning and it was just us on the water. The trails were good and the environment was nice.

Great experience and the staff were very helpful. As someone with limit French skills all the staff was very polite and accommodating. Highly recommend!

What a fantastic outdoor activity. If you want peace and quiet, nature and calm, this is the place to go! Friendly, courteous, and professional staff, clean boats and facilities, absolutely loved the experience! If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would! Do yourself a favour, go do it!

We had the walking trail just for us. It’s short but perfect with kids.
Just wanna come back to skate in the maze.

Belle endroit pour patiner, je m’imaginais l’endroit un peu plus dans la forêt mais sinon les pistes étaient belle et bien entretenue

What a beautiful, magical experience. Skating was awesome with breathtaking scenery. So peaceful and quiet. We really enjoyed having our hot chocolate beside the fire.

Make sure you have 4 wheel drive and snow tires! The hill in and back out is quite challenging and scary.

Would highly recommend making the detour to visit this gorgeous property for the skating labyrinth if staying in the Ottawa / Gatineau area in the wintertime. It’s only a 30 minute drive outside the city, and is well worth the time and ticket price.

We came on a Friday late afternoon and almost felt like we had the place to ourselves! We easily spent 2 hours here enjoying the skating paths in this beautiful natural landscape, stopping for a hot chocolate break and to warm up at the bonfire. The extensive winding ice paths had a natural surface to them that was more textured in some spots, but were quite smooth and well-maintained overall (check ice conditions online before you go). The hilly, snowy scenery and soft music playing in the background as we skated around made for a really beautiful, serene experience. This ended up being a highlight of our trip!

Did the pedal boat ride at night. Super fun activity. Would highly recommend chosing a canoe or kayak though as the pedal boat is loud and difficult to navigate in the maze.

Great outing! Refreshing change to enjoy an outdoor activity without being bombarded by music or other noise. We could simply enjoy the surroundings. Well laid out facility. Staff very friendly and accommodating. The actual water maze (we used kayaks which were comfortable) took us less than 90 minutes, shorter than we would have liked but overall great experience. Great for kids and adults.

The outdoor water maze is beautiful and the staff is super friendly and happy to answer questions. My only issue was that there are a lot of novices in canoes and paddle boards and more direction should be provided to avoid collision of the water vehicles especially at night.

We did this on July 20, and it was pretty hot. This isn’t a complaint, more of a suggestion.if you are a larger person (I’m 6’4” 285lbs, and the paddle boat was TIGHT! If you’re within the weight limit, get a canoe or kayak! The paddleboats are a workout if its hot! And they’re slow. But overall, its pretty neat, and worth the money!

Accueil très courtois à la réception et lors de la prise de possession de l'embarcation. Très belle activité en famille (ado). Nous avons fait le labyrinthe à la pluie en pédalo avec toit. Parfait pour la pluie. Je recommande le canot, le kayak ou la planche à pagaie (pour les habitués) par beau temps. Ces embarcations sont silencieuses et vous ne ferez pas fuir les petits animaux. Environ 2h pour faire le parcours. Très agréable.

We just got back from canoeing on monday aug 1st.what an experence.all the staff where freindly and helpful.it was fun canoeing thru the maze finding hidden animals we found 3 of the 5.the routes were well marked out.what an great idea this man had.we had seen it on Still Standing and was coming to Wakefield for a wedding and wanted to do it. Wish we lived closer but we are from windsor ontario and cant get up to this area. I would highly recommend doing this if you are in wakefield.thank you to the staff for a great experience

Good experience! We did the 2-person canoe, and did it twice - once in the morning, and once at night for the Perseid meteor shower.
Pros:
Overall neat concept - the maze is fun with games in between to find animals. The water is pretty shallow but still maneuverable and it can be a bit crowded if there are lots of people in the water, but that added to the experience for us. Saw lots of frogs and turtles. The customer service was pretty good too. The night experience was cool because of the mist/fog rolling off the water and having to search for clues with the light. Again, overall a good experience.
Cons:
They don't give you the right sized paddle, pretty much whatever is available. The biggest downside was the Perseid night experience. They had overbooked by over 100 boats (insane!) and moved us up from our 10: 30pm slot to 9pm. They only told us about it day-of, which was frustrating. It also wasn't a great opportunity to view the Perseids meteor shower because it was crowded with people and there was nowhere to safely stop and turn off your light (headlamps in our case), so we didn't see any. We actually drove to a different location after to watch the meteors, so I wouldn't recommend the Perseid night experience here.

Amazing natural ice experience. Nice fire to warm up, chill music for ambience. Bring a head lamp if skating after dark.

Le personnel est extraordinaire, et l’environnement est magique! The staff were incredible and the environment was magical!

Delightful, fresh, amusing, safe, exercise in nature. We were concerned it could be lame or small or unchallenging.it was none of those things. Staff we ere delightful and helpful and attentive.

The website could be smarter, especially on mobile devices, regarding default language selection, how YouTube videos are embedded, and reducing friction/hesitation for new users eager to register by making the generous cancellation rules (e.g. Weather) and the amount of flexibility there is upon arrival regarding start times for bookings more apparent. In other words, the website does the product a disservice.

So don't hesitate: try this. Everyone in the family should enjoy it!

Beautiful setting and pleasant ride through the water maze. Could easily do this on a regular basis. Great option to bring family or outside visitors to experience. They have different routes you can take inside the maze and night options as well. Highly recommended.

Belle expérience! Tous les employés rencontrés étaient très gentils. Pensez à apporter eau, casquette et crème solaire.

We went on August 7,2021. For some of us, it was their 1st time, for others, their 2nd time and for some others, their 4th time. Two of their paddleboard must have had weed stuck underneath the paddleboat as despite pedaling harder and stronger, those pedalboat were extremly slow and hard to manoever. Our 20 years old pedalboat at home was easier to manover and faster than theirs that only have a few years! The staff told us that they remove the weeds only once a day, by lack of time, and not between each client's use. People using the malfuncionning pedalboat were drenched. 2/5 for the maintenance of their equipment, poor signalisation and the animal words not fitting on the low dash. Too expensive for what it's worth plus they have increased the priced during Covid. Improvements to be made for sure.

Amazingly well organized! The maps, the water trails, the maze, just a pleasure to enjoy this magical place.

Nous avons fait le "labyrinthe d'eau" en famille avec 2 pédalos. Les parents et les enfants ont adorés. C'est comme une excursion en forêt, mais sur des canaux d'eau.

Magnifique site avec des employés accueillants et à l’heure. Nous et nous ados avons beaucoup aimé le labyrinthe sur l’eau et la rencontre du propriétaire qui nous a surpris avec son corbeau sauvage qu’il apprivoise tranquillement. Nous leur souhaitons bonne chance dans tous leurs projets à venir (patinoire labyrinthe, tir à l’arc, etc).

Interesting place to visit, and lots of frogs and mosquitos, so don’t forget to use repellent insect before to sit in paddleboat.

Superbe expérience et originale. Un labyrinthe en canot Spectacle multimédia très intéressant.

Belle expérience avec les enfants, les tortues, les grenouilles, la vue! J'y reviendrai assurément. On est retournée sur nos pas questions de trouver tous les indices cachés. Les consignes sont claires et les employés très sympathiques! Pic nic sur place, l'endroit est magnifique, Je vous recommande.

Great! First time using paddle board! Great staff, great scenery! Loved it would recommend it to anyone. Lovely!

Do not get the paddleboat! I can't stress this enough, it's slow as heck and drives like pudding. I was alone in my canoe, 2 friends were in a paddleboat and we had to macgiver a raft with both vehicles to get them some speed. It was fun but not for the right reason. I repeat avoid the paddleboat. Maze is kinda hard too, multiple tracks, etc. Especially at night

Lots of fun for a small group! We opted for the 2-person canoe and recieved a map to help us through the maze. Get ready for an arm workout. It took us almost 2 hours to finish!

Belle activité. On l'annonce pour une durée de 2h, mais ca nous a pris 1h15 parce qu'on prenait notre temps

Great place to go if you're looking for something to do with the family or even a friend.
Friendly staff and a all around fun experience.
We did the paddle boat and it took us roughly 2 hours.
If you love the outdoors, then check this place out.

Belle activité pour la famille! Idéal pour l'initiation au canot ou au Pédalo en circuit fermé et en eau calme. J'y suis allé de jour, en juillet. C'était un peu chaud. Privilégiez le matin ou la fin de journée avec les activités de soirée possibles?

A terrific place to spend a few hours in a beautiful, natural setting. Excellent for people of all ages, but those with children should particularly enjoy it.

What an experience! It was our first time to use a canoe and it was amazing! The staff are really nice and helpful everything is well explained and the ride was very calm and fun. Will definitely be back!

We were 8 adults, ages 20 - 67, on 4 paddle boats.
It was a warm sunny afternoon, some of the canals were cool ribbons in a lush green oasis, some were more exposed.
We got separated in short order, everyone saw turtles, birds, and jumping frogs. Good memories were made.

Superbe expérience! Le personnel était sympathique et enthousiaste. Une expérience a recommencé

Belle aventure sur un plan d'eau. Les rires et le plaisir est au rendez-vous assuré

Pour répondre à votre question:
M ou Mme Eco Odyssée le 5 aurait été fait si je n'avais pas eu à payer un canot en surplus 60$ (forfait réservé ; eco noctura canot 3 personnes) ça ne dit pas que 3 adultes c'est NON parce que capacité maximale du canot est de 500 livres ‍️

Quelle mauvaise expérience! Le marais est tellement mal nettoyé que les pédalos n'avance plus. En plus les pédalos sont sales. Les indices pour la découverte du site sont très mal fait également, il est facile de se perdre. Je n'y retournerai plus. C'est beaucoup trop cher pour ce que ca représente, ne guaspillez pas votre argent.

Vraiment super expérience pour tous les âges. Les enfants ont vu des tortues et des canards et ils étaient enchantés! Le labyrinthe est vraiment amusant et pas du tout compliqué.

Very misleading website. It says in FAQs that there are hardly any bugs. It was a swamp and full of mosquitoes. I booked two paddle boats for family and one of them had spider webs with rusted flapped that was pain to move.

We followed the turtle path and half the turtle signs were either missing or under water.

Waste of time and money. Did half of if and returned.

Une belle expérience, La vue est belle et le terrain aussi, les canots sont de bonnes qualités, petit jeu disponible trouver des noms d'animaux en plastique, petits animaux en bois à suivre pour trouver son chemin, si jamais on a besoin d'aide un numéro sur la carte est là.

Les points négatifs, le resto, pas grand choix et cher pour la quantité, nous avons manqué 4 étapes parce qu'un des animaux en bois pour nous guider était disparu (sûrement tombé),

We come here every year and it just keeps getting better & better. It was a little busier than it used to be but we still had lots of fun!

Best i can say is its ok. Interesting concept, beautiful location and the setup is nice. It just gets really boring really quick. I actually don’t think its suitable for young kids especially if your kid has a short attention span. We had a four year old with us and he lost interest pretty quick. My older kids were ok with it but got bored fast like i did. Some people would like this but its not for me.

We had an amazing experience! Great customer service and breathtaking location! I would highly recommend going with friends and family for a fun adventure or as a couple or even by yourself to enjoy the environment a bit more. I will definitely be going back soon.
