부동산 — Motel Bic

Motel Bic sits on the edge of the St. Lawrence River near Parc National du Bic, a utilitarian but clean roadside stop that suits self-sufficient travellers who want quick access to the park and the village of Le Bic. The lobby is basic, with a front desk that doubles as a small convenience shop selling snacks and ice. Rooms are plain but functional, with laminate floors and dated furniture. It’s the sort of place you sleep, not linger.

Quebec 연대기

Le Bic began as a small fishing and farming settlement in the 18th century, its deep harbour serving river traffic. In 1914, the railway arrived, connecting it to the rest of Quebec. The post-war period saw the rise of the park as a conservation area, protecting the dramatic fjord-like coastline. Today, it’s a quiet village that lives off tourism and a handful of local services, with a seasonal population that swells in summer.

방문하기 가장 좋은 시간

Quebec 완전 가이드 →

최고의 달

June to September: warm weather for hiking the park’s trails and kayaking the river, with July and August offering the fullest range of boat tours and wildlife-watching.

Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리

Mid-July to mid-August is the peak, driven by the summer holiday crush and the Fête du Bic (last weekend of July). Hotel prices double from the shoulder season; Motel Bic often sells out by early June.

Budget Shoulder 시즌

Late May, early June, and September are the best budget shoulder months. The weather is still pleasant, trails are less crowded, and prices drop by around 30-40%.

날씨 & 포장

Summers here are notoriously mosquito-heavy, especially near the marshes. Pack strong repellent and a long-sleeved shirt for evenings, even in July.

City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Quebec

  • The Route 132 bypass around the village centre has new roundabouts that went live in late 2025; watch for reduced speed limits entering Le Bic from the east.
  • Parc National du Bic now requires online reservations for kayak rentals and the popular 'park bus' to the Cap Enragé lookout; book at least a week ahead in July.
  • A new brewery, Brasserie du Bic, opened in the old railway station and serves ales from local barley; closes Tuesdays in summer 2026.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Motel Bic, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the second floor facing away from Route 132. The rear side overlooks the Bic National Park forest, offering better insulation from road noise.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Ground-floor rooms near the main entrance and the ice machine alcove get footfall and machine hum. Also skip any room directly above the reception, as desk calls and early-riser check-outs can drift up.

🪟

Best views

Ask for a unit on the south side – those face the Bic National Park and Saint Lawrence River estuary, with good sunset views across the water.

😴

Quietest floors

Second floor only – the building is a single-storey motel with no lift, so all rooms are ground level (first floor is effectively the only floor). Opt for an end unit away from the office.

🔊 Noise notes

Route 132 is the main coastal road in the Lower St. Lawrence region; expect moderate traffic noise from 7am–9pm but little overnight. The motel’s gravel parking lot can crunch under early departures.

Insider tips

1. Request a room at the far east or west end to reduce neighbour noise through shared walls. 2. Parking is free and right outside your door, but pack a torch if arriving late – exterior lighting is minimal.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
