This restaurant has good pub food, French cuisine, and its own ghost story (ask the waiters). But the real reason to go is for the lake view on the terrace; many Montrealers drive one hour to Hudson just for this. Have a lakeside drink or meal on the terrace of the Auberge Willow Place Inn restaurant, from where you have the best view.
