Saint-Lazare's riding and walking trails, Lac des Deux Montagnes and Sandy Beach in Hudson, Mont Rigaud and its trails are the large spaces; the Hudson Village Theatre, the golf courses, the stables, the arenas and the pools complete the offer.

Pro: Space, woods, horses, an English-speaking lakeside village in Hudson, and the West Island twenty minutes away. Con: Lived by car: the Hudson train is rare, and there are no condos or services on foot.

Less so for those who want a frequent train, a condo or services on foot: the sector is lived by car, and its high end negotiates.
