Description
We are two brothers with our team running a small glamping resort (34 cabins and a spa area) looking for some help with our thriving business.
We do everything in-house from designing to building cabins. We also have several projects ongoing at the same time, from improving our site, landscaping to creating art projects to renew our offer. We love creating things and coming up with a bunch of different ideas and it helps to have people from around the world contributing to this kind of big communal project.
If you would like to know more, please feel free to send us a message ! ;)Types of help and learning opportunities

We do many things in-house from designing and building ecological cabins, landscaping or taking care of farm animals and of our little garden.

I'd been chasing this place for two years. This was THE place I absolutely wanted to go to while in Canada, whether as a worker or a WOOFer I did not care - I just knew I had to go... and I'm so glad I finally did! I spent four weeks there in October 2022 and I had a wonderful time.
First of all, I did… read more

I spent about 5 weeks at the Repère last summer, and I had such an amazing time. I am super grateful I got to spend some time in Les Eboulements, and to take a much needed break from my life.

We tend to attract beautiful personnalities with our project and Grazi didn't proove us wrong once again as she brought her own sweet, quiet but strong energy throughout her stay. I would recommend her anywhere she goes. ;)

The place is beautiful. I can only… read more

She has a great sense of humour which is a good thing here :P
Having her around the team felt natural, like if she has always been there.
We recommend her without a doubt!
Good luck in your next projects Yoko!
I spent three weeks with the host. Three awesome weeks of jokes, nature, good food, snow, music, family, spatime and not to forget the work. Your work will be cleaning and preparing the lovely designed cabins for customers in a team or alone. The team is not a team, it's a big family and you'll be a part of them. If… read more

Cependant, tous les autres aspects de ce bénévolat sont excellents. La maison louée pour les volontaires est spacieuse… read more
