Laval-sur-le-Lac

Laval-sur-le-Lac is a small district on the western-end part of Laval and was a separate city until the municipal mergers on August 6, 1965. This gated community counts North America's oldest French speaking private golf club, Le Club Laval-sur-le-Lac, established in 1917.

The seasonal Laval-sur-le-Lac–Île-Bizard Ferry, which does not operate in winter, connects Laval-sur-le-Lac with Île Bizard.
