Au Pic de l'Aurore

Gaspé Peninsula


Perched high on a cliff overlooking Percé, the sprawling grounds of the 'Peak of Dawn' offer something for everyone: chalets with or without kitchenettes, motel rooms and even a whole four-bedroom house to rent. Interiors have a cozy log-cabin feel with pine furniture, and there's a bar with outstanding views.
