Country Charm to Get Facelift A new owner has taken over Country Charm Resort, located just east of Ste. Anne, and has now realized it is a bigger endeavor than previously expected to get it ready to open for business after 3 years of being non-operational. Gus, who previously resided in Beausejour, is reaching out to the community as he is in need of some volunteers who would like to lend a hand doing some much needed yard work and gardening. There is also an onsite spa that needs a new tenant. The facility is fully equipped and just waiting for the perfect entrepreneur to fill the space. If you have some time on your hands give Gus a call at 204-2050487. Gus is willing to trade vacation resort stays for any reasonable work done at the resort.
