15 Best Sugar Shacks (or Cabanes à Sucre) Near Montreal | Eater Montreal

"Far from some stoic expression of rusticity, this sugar “shack” in the Laurentides embraces the festivities of the season whole-heartedly with a full-on fairground of activities that range from mechanical bulls and train rides to merry-go-rounds. First opened in 1948, before transferring to its current stewards of the Lampron family, they’re now going on six generations of boiling down sap and serving up feasts. Running from March 4 to May 1 and priced at $33 per adult and $10.44 to $13.91 per child depending on age, reservations get diners a meal as well as access to activities. Perfect for those looking for a sugar shack that the whole family can enjoy." - JP Karwacki
