    If you’ve ever fantasized about living in a glass box among pines, Le MICA (Chalet Micro‑Element) might just be your incarnation. Perched on Mont Tourbillon in Lac‑Beauport, Quebec, this high-end tiny home blends architectural daring with forest immersion so cleanly you’ll want to stay longer than your plans allow.

    The first time you catch sight of it, Le MICA nearly disappears into the trees. Its sleek lines, expansive windows, and muted palette whisper rather than shout. From its altitude — about 550 meters on the Maelstrom private estate — you’ll spot mountains stretching into mist, treetops swaying, and the kind of silence that vibrates. That silence is its signature.

    Inside, the layout feels generous for its footprint. Upstairs lies a queen-size bed made for lingering mornings, where you wake behind floor-to-ceiling windows framing forest vistas. Downstairs, two bunk beds and a sofa bed accommodate guests if you brought friends (or children). The kitchen is fully equipped — espresso machine, modern appliances, cookware galore — so you can both cook and lounge. Bathrooms are crisp, functional, with comfort in mind, not aesthetic excess.

    Underfloor heating and climate control ensure that even in frigid Quebec winters, you’ll feel cocooned. A gas stove warms the air, while thoughtful insulation keeps the wild at arm’s length. The marriage of comfort and exposure is handled deftly — you see the forest, but don’t suffer for it.

    Step outside onto the deck and let your lungs breathe. This is where Le MICA reveals more of itself. An outdoor hot tub invites you under open sky, where clouds drift over ridgelines, stars emerge in velvet night, and conversation slows. Nearby, a wood-burning fireplace and barbecue stand ready for al fresco dinners, twilight whispered toasts, or quiet solitude with a glass of wine.

    But Le MICA’s power is in what it enables, not just what it is. It’s 25 minutes north of Quebec City, a UNESCO World Heritage gem. Within minutes lies a grocery, a bakery (yes, fresh croissants are possible), local restaurants — the comforts of civilization before you ascend into forest quiet. And that private road — about 3 km — demands respect: in winter (Nov 1 to April 15), an all-wheel-drive vehicle with winter tires is required. A shuttle service can be arranged if your ride isn’t alpine-ready.

    The setting, Maelstrom Estate, offers more than a view. Trails spider into forest and slope. In every season — biking, hiking, skiing, snowshoeing — there’s a way to meet nature. MICA is both retreat and launchpad.

    Pricing tends to sit in the premium zone for its class. But you’re not paying for a box — you’re paying for a moment suspended in forest, for design that listens rather than imposes, for those mornings when light moves like liquid across your walls. It’s not perfect — small spaces magnify quirks, and that road is real. But when memory settles, it’s not the minor friction you remember. It’s the quiet, the view, the gentle wonder of having a forest as your neighbor.

    If your idea of escape includes seeing treetops at eye level, hearing your breath sync with pine wind, and staying somewhere that feels alive rather than staged — Le MICA is worth that shaky winter drive. Pack long underwear, your curiosity, maybe a book. Then let the forest do its work.
