Lac-Brome: a resort destination
Lac-Brome, which includes Knowlton, attracts resort visitors year-round. Accommodation, restaurants, shops, vineyards, outdoor activities and services to seasonal residents form a well-established and often bilingual tourism economy.
Tourist accommodation is regulated
Offering short-term accommodation, whether an inn, a cottage or a room, is not an unregulated activity. The sector is governed in Quebec: registration with tourism authorities and a displayed establishment number are generally required, and booking platforms now verify that information.
Add municipal rules on permitted use, often strict in resort areas, along with the lodging tax applicable in several regions.
On liability, hosting visitors on your property creates real exposure: injury, fire, damage. Home insurance does not cover commercial use. A corporation holds the operation, takes out commercial insurance and separates your personal assets from that activity.
Online incorporation, reviewed by lawyers
Our pricing includes government fees. See our online incorporation guide or start your incorporation.

Provincial or federal for a Lac-Brome business?
A tourism business operating in Quebec does not need the federal regime, even with significant American or Ontario clientele.
The property inside or outside the corporation
A classic question: should the building be held in the operating corporation? The usual answer is no. Separating the property from the operation shields the real estate from operational risk and eases a future sale. That structure is planned with an accountant.
Your obligations once incorporated
Annual updating declaration, a current minute book, a separate corporate tax return and resolutions recording major decisions.
Common questions from Lac-Brome entrepreneurs
I rent my cottage a few weeks a year. Does this apply to me? Possibly. Thresholds and municipal rules vary. Check before listing, since fines are significant.
