Au Pays de Réal Massé,
then and now
Based in Saint-Zénon in the Lanaudière region, this outfitter was founded in 1928 as “Club de Chasse et de Pêche Léonard Bellerose.” Nearly 60 years later, in 1986, hunting and fishing enthusiast Réal Massé purchased the property with a dream in mind: to create an industry landmark.
Only 6 months later, disaster struck and a terrible fire ravaged the outfitter, leaving Mr. Massé hospitalized. Thankfully, this dedicated, visionary builder never gave up and set about rebuilding his dream the following February. His goal: to rebuild the inn and cottages in time for the opening of the fishing season in May. It was a tall order, and one that Réal Massé and his team met with flying colours.
40 years later, Au Pays de Réal Massé is still run by the family and is one of the most coveted hunting and fishing estates in Quebec. Mr. Massé’s daughter Nancy, her husband Gilles, their daughter Stéphanie, her wife Karina, and the entire team are involved at every stage in developing the outfitter’s offering, with a focus on preserving its essence and ensuring that the founder’s legacy lives on.
More than ever, we’re happy to say that all roads lead to Réal Massé!
Stories of hunting,
fishing, and fun
My best fishing experience ever, and the #1 site in Quebec. Réal is a great guy… bravo again for your work.
Wonderful vacation at your outfitter. I tasted trout pies for the first time in my life, and it was just wow. We caught trout weighing more than we could have hoped for. The staff was very courteous to us, and what can I say about Mr. Massé’s kindness? We’ll never forget our stay at Réal Massé Outfitters.
Another wonderful stay in paradise! What a beautiful place! Always a great pleasure to spend time at this wonderful outfitter. We’ll be back next year, without hesitation.
It was really a beautiful weekend and we had fish for every taste!
Monique and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary with our children and grandchildren. We all loved our memorable experience. Thanks to Réal and his entire team for these wonderful moments with your beautiful family.
A memorable day despite the gloomy weather, but that’s when the fish bite! Very happy with the beautiful lake trout I caught on the fly with my partner Émélie St-Georges. If you’re looking for good fishing, there’s only one place to go, and it’s Réal Massé.
A wonderful and unforgettable stay with my little sister Caroline. Extraordinary fishing with the biggest trout of my life. We spent 3 days in a buggy and had a great time. An enchanting, clean site, staff who are always friendly and ready to help, and food worthy of a gourmet restaurant. Thanks to Mr. Réal, the whole team, and the Massé family.
Un séjour remarquable dans un décor tranquille. Des repas copieux avec un personnel toujours disponible et toujours souriant. Des hérons, des huards, des aigles à tête blanche qui viennent prendre leur repas sous notre nez.
Nous sommes allés l’année dernière à la pourvoirie avec ma famille, mes parents et mes beaux-parents. Depuis plus de 20 ans, nous allons toujours chez Réal Massé. Quand j’étais petit, je venais ici avec mes parents et c’est maintenant à mon tour d’amener mes enfants ici. Merci à la pourvoirie Réal Masse de nous faire vivre de beaux moments en famille.
Be part of the family!
