Joliette’s Dobedo Camps Showcases Growth of Eco-Lodging in Quebec

Dobedo Camps, located in Joliette, Quebec, has been recognized as one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2025, highlighting its growing appeal in Canada’s outdoor hospitality and glamping markets. 

Spread across 100 acres of private land adjacent to a nature reserve and Tremblant Park, the property offers guests an opportunity to experience a mix of seclusion, wilderness recreation, and rustic lodging options within easy reach of Montreal.

The destination features a log cabin, guesthouse, and a selection of eco-campsites designed to immerse visitors in nature while maintaining modern comforts.

The 1,500-square-foot log cabin was built over five years using timber sourced from the surrounding forest and can accommodate up to six adults. 

It includes two bedrooms, a wood and propane stove, a private lakeside dock, and Wi-Fi access, providing a blend of off-grid aesthetics and essential amenities. 

A smaller guesthouse, designed around a natural rock face, sleeps four guests and offers front and back verandas that provide views of the lake and the surrounding forest.

Dobedo Camps also includes minimalist “Escalade/Cliff Camps,” which cater to adventure-oriented guests seeking a basic, sustainable stay near climbing areas. 

These sites feature compostable toilets and a communal outdoor kitchen, emphasizing eco-conscious design and low-impact recreation.

For outdoor hospitality business owners, Dobedo Camps exemplifies how operators can balance rustic authenticity with modern expectations to attract experience-driven travelers.

Its recognition by Hipcamp underscores a growing market demand for immersive, environmentally sensitive stays that go beyond traditional camping. 

As travelers continue to seek off-grid and sustainable experiences close to urban centers, the model used at Dobedo—combining nature-based activities with small-scale, thoughtful infrastructure—may serve as a guide for future glamping and eco-retreat development across Canada.
