Over a century in the maple game and still going strong, Cabane à Sucre Lalande delivers a polished, crowd-friendly sugar shack experience just outside Montreal. Open year-round as an event venue, it shifts into full sugaring-off mode from mid-March to late April, serving up traditional feasts with all the classics—tourtière, baked beans, and syrup-drenched everything. The space is built for big gatherings, making it a go-to for large family outings. Beyond the meal, there are horse-drawn rides, taffy on snow, and a rotating lineup of live entertainment. And if you miss sugar season, their legendary Mother’s Day brunch is worth marking on the calendar.
