The farm is located on the edge of the forest and surrounded by pastures (cows, goats, and horses). Various hiking trails can be accessed directly from the farm. Surrounded by nature, it's ideal for biking and hiking directly from the house... or, in winter, for snowshoeing and sledding. Cross-country and downhill skiing are also nearby. St. Marie aux Mines, with its restaurants, bakery, pastry shop, cafes, supermarket, etc., is about a 15-minute walk away. Our guests have access to a whirlpool and a sauna (both open year-round) outside the farm. Our pool is seasonal and open from approximately the beginning of May to the beginning of October, depending on the weather. Sauna/whirlpool: Please indicate when booking if you will be using these. A surcharge of 25 E per day will be added to the total stay. In the La Foret apartment (2 bedrooms), 1-2 dogs are allowed; please indicate this when booking. A fee of 10 E per dog/night is charged. ``` Dogs are not allowed in the La Prairie apartment (3 bedrooms).
