You may have a ~little~ bit of trouble pronouncing the name of this lovely french-influenced town in Quebec, Canada, but trust me — it’s worth learning how to say Saguenay because it’s just a beautiful town. It has been described as an oasis, a picturesque town on the banks of the Saguenay River. And, there is just so much to do here, like tour the pulp mill (La Pulperie de Chicoutimi), hit up Mont Lac Vert for some skiing, snowboarding, and tubing, or visit the pyramids; not the great pyramid of Cairo, but the Pyramid of Ha! Ha! a monument made in commemoration of the Ha! Ha! River. There’s still more — Saguenay is still a lively town with bustling city center full of amazing restaurants. So, while in the area definitely sample the blueberry pie at Moulin de Pionniers, craft beer from Microbrasserie du Lac Saint Jean, touriere from Marie’s House, and cheese from the Cheddar Museum or the Formagerie Medard or Boulangerie Medard. With so much to eat and do, you just have to make a trip to Saguenay, so be sure to check out these Airbnb vacation rentals so you know where to stay to have a great time.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on February 02, 2024.

Finally, the home is close to many notable attractions as it’s only less than a kilometer (0.6 miles) from Rosaire-Gauthier Park while several supermarkets, shopping malls, and the city center are only 2.2 km (1.3 mi) away.
