In Quebec, a Smart Cedar Cabin in the Land Beyond What You Know
Hinterland is a German word dating back to 1888 and meaning "the land behind," referring to the land beyond any coastal settlement or urban area. Hinterhouse, located in a densely forested hillside with sweeping views of the Mont-Tremblant Valley, shares the spirit of remoteness.
Designed by Montreal-based Ménard Dworkind, this home will strengthen your connection to nature, starting with its sustainably-harvested materials: cedar, red pine, and Douglas fir. Flanked by windows, the 930-square-foot living space provides forest views from every angle and centers around a rotating wood stove.
Seeming to emerge from the hillside itself is a sauna-as-replica of the main house – accessible via a winding staircase, carved out of the earth. Engage in the detoxifying Scandinavian spa pastime, followed by a splash of cold in the outdoor shower, and a rest in the hammock.
Speaking of restoration and cycles, the Hinter company plants 10 trees for every booking. We can't think of a more stunning base camp for exploring the regions beyond. Skiers and snowboarders will enjoy its proximity to Mont Tremblant's resort: just a 15-minute drive away.

This compact vacation rental in Quebec has two bedrooms and one bath within an open-plan living space. Sliding panels smartly hide TVs at the end of each bed, offering a unique movie-watching experience. When hidden, light, and forest views prevail. A ceiling cove surrounds the house, allowing for recessed blinds and indirect lighting. Enjoy views of the forest from the large window bathroom. This is a home that transforms based on your mood – sliding open to let in the light and views or closing entirely from the elements.
AROUND
The cabin is a 15-minute drive from Mont Tremblant and its well-known ski resort. However, proximity to other parks and trails makes it a great year-round destination. Spend the day at the 1,500-acre Domaine St Bernard, with its hiking trails, swimming, biking, cross-country skiing, and snow-shoeing. Tremblant and St Jovite have a variety of good restaurants to choose from, and the Scandinavian baths at Spa Scandinave offer a 50% discount to guests. When it's not snowing, the Mount-Tremblant resort has a race track, golf courses, ziplines, and other outdoor activities.
