For a sugar shack experience that keeps things traditional without feeling overly commercial, Au Milieu des Champs hits the sweet spot. Nestled in Mirabel, this family-run cabane delivers all the classic comforts—bacon, smoked ham, baked beans, fluffy omelettes, and plenty of maple syrup—served in a rustic dining room warmed by crackling wood stoves. Beyond the feast, guests can stroll through the maple grove, visit the farm animals, and stock up on house-made maple treats from the boutique. The atmosphere leans cozy and personal rather than large-scale production, making it an ideal spot for families and small groups looking for an authentic sugaring-off season without the crowds.
