Chalet
Le Corbeau
Between lakes, forests, mountains, and skies
Lac Clair, located in Sainte-Christine d’Auvergne in the Portneuf RCM, sits near the Parc Régional de Portneuf, a region renowned for its striking geomorphological features.

The owners of this family retreat had owned a lakeside property for several years before bringing their vision to life. A winding footpath navigates the 30-meter elevation change, connecting the upper plateau to the lakefront dock. Nestled into the steep terrain, the Le Corbeau cabin seamlessly integrates with the natural topography. From a distance, a familiar silhouette emerges through the trees—its simple gabled roof recalling the iconic shape of a Canadian tent. Arriving from the upper plateau, the building evokes an A-frame cabin, whereas on the lake-facing side, it cascades over three levels, following the landscape down to the natural plateau.
Designed as a warm gathering space that embraces its surroundings, the cabin fulfills the owners’ desire to host family and friends in an environment that feels deeply connected to nature.
