Cabins and Yurts

What better way to stretch out a visit to Gatineau Park than with a stay in one of their yurts or cabins? That was my thought, too, until I noticed the NCC’s reservation site for winter campsites, cabins, and yurts is offline. It turns out reservations are on hold until the winter season opens on November 1st at 9am!
