Our History

Domaine Kiamika is part of the history and development of the Upper Laurentians, and that particularly of Kiamika. Over the last century, the Valiquette family established themselves in this region. The road that leads to the region is called Valiquette Road. In addition to the forestry and farming to support the family, Lorenzo Valiquette saw the potential of the site surrounded with its lakes, river, and abundant wildlife. Thus, in 1938, he created the Domaine Kiamika Outfitter, which became very popular over the decades. In the 70s, many families spent their summer vacation there, several of them from the United States. Many loyal customers still remember having met Herman Valiquette, Lorenzo's son, in the 80s and 90s.

The year 2000 was a turning point for the Domaine. Marcel Paris and Manon Demers took the reins for over 15 years. Expansion of the main house, new cottages, and construction of a huge stable, were among some of the couple's milestones, enchanted by the magic of the Domaine since the beginning.

2021 marked the arrival of new key players to revamp the Domaine. Major investments are currently being undertaken, ith the objective to broaden the clientele and diversify the activities to welcome people year round.
