Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our home is situated in the town of Magog, in the Eastern Townships. Because of it's close proximity to lake Memphramagog and as it is in the shadow of Mount Orford, Magog is a very attractive town for both residents and tourists. Summer and winter bring visitors to our parks, beaches and our mountain trails. Our many festivals will entertain and our lovely sceneries will leave you with pleasant memories. We have cruises on the lake and a tourist train will show you charming villages around our area. We are 90 minutes from Montreal, 20 minutes from Sherbrooke, 3hrs. 30 minutes to Quebec city and 2hours 30 minutes from Ottawa. The U.S. border is only 30 minutes away. We love our many brasseries, restaurants and shops and there is golfing for everyone at the many courses around. We love to drive into Montreal to enjoy the city's culture,shows and restaurants. In Magog we have the joie de vivre in both English and French. Come and join us.
