Master Plan

THE MASTER PLAN DEFINES PLACES AND SPACES WHERE CURATED EXPERIENCES THROUGHOUT THE PROPERTY WILL BE MEMORABLE.

SUBDIVISIONS 
& INTEGRATED PROJECTS

Numerous initiatives are in progress to amend subdivide the property into 13 discrete lots, amend the property zoning to permit 'integrated project' regulations.

PLAN
ARRIVING
ARRIVING
TRAVERSING
CIRCULATING

  • Entry gates, base camp house, minimize visibility of garages, maintenance buildings and equipment with use of landscaping features. 

  • Draw visitors to the threshold of the main access road past the garages

  • Hub is the ‘2nd Point of Arrival’. The wow factor is imperative as visitors arrive upon the Hub and its setting

  • Arrival at the HUB in summer be by private vehicle, or shuttle from base camp in Navigator (beast) in summer / fall

  • Arrival at HUB in winter by snowcat or ATV

  • Arrival at the HELIPAD – shuttle to hub by Navigator (Beast) or pickup (Beauty) or ATV

WAYFINDING
PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION LANDSCAPING WAYFINDING

Entry Gate

  • Entry gate design to include feature lights and wood-clad gates on steel frame

  • Remote control operation, native stone columns to match base of caretaker house. Careful attention to detail of the light fixtures will be an important element of the arrival experience. The lights will ILLUMINATE the experience of arrival.

​​

Basecamp and caretaker house

  • Basecamp, by default is the point of arrival and first impression. Archtictural and landscaping elements are well in hand with SWLDA and Josee Tremblay initiatives. Maintenance buildings are in process of being improved to match the look and feel of the basecamp house with similar siding, roofs and doors.

  • Basecamp maintenance and equipment area will ultimately be visually screened as much as possible with landscape elements and visual markers to draw lines of sight to the ‘threshold’ of the access road just past the first 3 door garage.

 

First 100 meters

  • Special attention to the “threshold’ of the main access road. Passing the threshold needs to invoke an experience that defines the beginning of the journey to Grand Lac Sinclair Paradise.

PROPERTY OPERATIONS
PROPERTY OPERATIONS

  • A second ‘mid-property station’ may be located at the container garage

  • The property manager is a private contractor, lives off-site.

  • Outside property management and maintenance workers vary in number during the year based on season and special projects.

  • Expectation for year 1 is 3 or 4 outside workers full time

  • The caretaker house is:

    • the property manager’s office

    • the staff room 

    • the reception point for service providers

    • deliveries

    • trades

  • ​Personal housekeepers and staff will be outsourced “on demand” and likely be provide by hospitality rental manager
