Just over the bridge from Berthierville and within D'Autray, the community offers easy access to nature—think quiet coves for paddling around the Îles de Berthier—and to history along the storied Chemin du Roy. Families appreciate everyday essentials nearby and a calendar filled with small-town festivities, while weekend explorers enjoy quick drives to Joliette, Trois-Rivières, Repentigny, or even Montreal via Autoroute 40.
Local learning is supported by the French-language Centre de services scolaire des Samares, with secondary options in the area, and the English-language Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board serving eligible students. For higher education and continuing studies, the Cégep régional de Lanaudière in Joliette broadens academic opportunities close to home.
On the cultural side, race fans are a short hop from the famed Musée Gilles-Villeneuve, and regional outings come easy with inspiration from Tourisme Lanaudière. Commuters and day-trippers appreciate reliable regional service from exo, and municipal services across the county are coordinated through the MRC de D’Autray.
