A night in the longhouse in Hôtel-Musée Premières Nations
Visitors can tour the property’s Musée Huron-Wendat for exhibits that give an overview of Huron-Wendat heritage, including their skills in making traditional snowshoes and canoes. Come evening, guests can attend storytelling sessions or even sleepovers in the wooden longhouse—a short walk away from the main building—to hear not just traditional legends, but the morals behind them, too. (In a nod to the benefits of modern technology, however, the longhouse fire is heated by natural gas).
Your “pre-contact” experience includes:
– myths and Legends in the Longhouse
– labrador tea in the Longhouse
– a fire keeper who takes care of the fire and your dreams for the whole night
– a comfort room in the Hôtel-Musée Premières Nations for modern conveniences breakfast at La Traite Restaurant
