Joining the country club in September is the best time of the year: membership covers twelve months—the entire 2027 season—and you’ll be able to enjoy the fall foliage season starting from day one. Here’s the breakdown for Station Chêne Rouge in North Hatley, 1 hour and 30 minutes from Montreal.
The Reflex to Overcome
“The season is coming to an end; I’ll join in the spring.” That’s just a hunch—and it ends up costing twice as much. First, because membership isn’t a seasonal subscription: it’s valid for twelve months from the date of enrollment. If you join on September 15, 2026, your membership lasts until September 15, 2027—the entire summer. Second, because waiting until spring means missing out on the best weeks of the season: the peak of fall colors, from late September through mid-October, when hiking around North Hatley is at its best and the heated pool stays open until at least mid-October.
What September Brings Right Away
Free Dayclub access throughout the fall foliage season: pool, 4 km of private trails through the maple trees, and a fire pit. The $75 credit is applicable immediately, bringing the actual cost down to $74 in the first year. Plus, a 30% discount on a weekday fall stay—often more than the actual cost of the membership in a single reservation. Full details of the calculation are provided in the membership overview.
The New Member's Schedule
September: Sign up, first visits to the Dayclub amid the emerging colors of fall.

November through April: a $25 promo code to share with your loved ones, and the 2027 season already paid for. May: the pool reopens, and you’re already at home. Sign up on the membership page.
