Pleasant Walk

This little lake and small Chateau were just a short way from where we stayed. A very pleasant walk around the lake and there was a cafe on site.

Be certain to get the audio guides for the Musee de Conde
We arrived at the Chateau on the day before the annual weekend races, and parking was a little restricted. Once we avoided the bus backing our of the closed area and found parking, it was about a 500 meter walk to the Chateau. The chateau is worth visiting on its own, but the Musee Conde in the interior is the place we would return to. It has a wonderful audio guide with many options for in depth listening about the pieces that are of individual interest. The collection includes many pieces that I had not heard about or seen pictured since taking a survey course to fulfill my fine arts requirement in college. When we have to spend a night near CDG airport again in a few months, we may go early in the day just to have an opportunity to visit again and spend more time learning about some of collection we could not see during this visit.

A hook from Chantilly's Castle
The Lake was originally part of the Castle of Chantilly Property. It's 10 minutes from it, and I recommend to stop there if: - you go from Paris to visit Chantilly's Castle by car , especially in the early morning - you want to stop for lunch/dinner along the lake where you'll find a restaurant providing pancakes and any kind of beverages.
