30 Jan The Montreal Vacation Home

The Montreal Vacation Home

This past year I had the distinct pleasure of getting to meet a colleague of mine from Texas who made the decision a few years back to invest in a vacation home here in the Le Plateau neighborhood of Montreal. She originally came to visit Montreal in the fall of 2000 and loved it so much, she returned and rented a place in the Plateau for 30 days in August of 2002.  Finally, in May of 2006, after contemplating for several years, she and her husband took the plunge, purchasing a lovely pied à terre by Le Fontaine Park in Le Plateau. For years now, they have enjoyed spending their summer months in our beautiful city and consider it one of their best kept secrets. I guess that is until now! She recently created a website that tells the story of her Montreal journey along with sharing some great information about what to see and where to go when in Montreal.  This is her open love letter to Montréal!

Since first publishing this post, I’m happy to say that many others are discovering the beauty that the city of Montreal has on offer. It’s wonderful to see how many people are considering Montreal as their perfect vacation home, for some, the changing of the seasons has much to offer!
