Welcome to ForestHill, a unique ranch, born from an inspiring story and where a calming energy reigns. This impressive estate includes a stable with an arena and paddock, two charming cottages, a magnificent barn equipped with a loft, an inspiring art studio, and an imposing bigenerational property with a 5 1/2. Proudly built in a region where recreational tourism is growing…ForestHill is an adventure, a project, and is now looking for a “gentleman farmer” to continue its story. Follow us for an introduction to the history of this extraordinary place. It was in 1987, following his return to Quebec, that Norm contacted his old friend, Alain Hill, owner of an impressive plot of land in Mauricie, to ask for permission to build a small camp. This is when the adventure began… His wife, Lise, suggested he build a place to accommodate the whole family. Norm then began building a small chalet on stilts, completed in 1995. It remained small until 2003-2004, when expansions were made. In 2005-2006, Lise and Norm joined forces with two friends to develop an innovative and ambitious project on the site. Initially called La Forestière, the project was renamed following a shareholder’s suggestion. The entire group of partners agreed to pay homage to the family that owned the land, the Hills. From then on, the place was renamed ForestHill. In 2016, following the foundation repairs, the property was completely renovated. ForestHill’s mission was to become a quality recreational tourism provider in a municipality that is confirming its vocation. The site was intended to become a true artistic forest resort, complete with a spa. Blacksmithing, wood painting, and sculpture were the targeted techniques for the artistic vocation of the place. Natural baths, using the waterfalls located on the site, were also in the plans. To maximize the experience of future visitors, several accommodations and teepees, spread throughout the site, were to be built. The challenges were as follows: – Deploy an integrated system where the mandate of the main players, such as the municipality, the national park, and the company, are respected in sustainable development management. – Demonstrate the variety and originality of the regional tourism product. – That this initiative attracts an ever-increasing number of visitors and is the prelude to the most exciting experiences in all seasons. Offering an impressive area of nearly 1,600,000 square feet in a magnificent natural setting, this exceptional estate represents a range of possibilities.This property offers a unique investment opportunity. For ForestHill’s next chapter, you can consider diversifying products and services, maximizing revenue potential, and expanding the site. The zoning offers several possibilities! A wealth of additional information about the history and highlights of this location will be provided during the site visit. This is simply magical.
