This is our 2nd lift in the Notre-Dame-du-Laus area, we build inclinedelevation.com/portfolio/16 in 2008. The photos below were taken by the owners and they shared these comments with us.
We have been the proud owners of Lift 113 (Panorama Corbeau) for about a month. Since John and his excellent crew finished their work we find ourselves gazing out the window at it (so cool!) and finding excuses to ride it up and down the hill. There has been a steady parade of boats going past at snail’s-pace while the occupants rubberneck, and our neighbors half-jokingly offered to purchase a season’s pass. It’s really quite a novelty for our modest lake.
Our hill is all sand, which posed some specific challenges. It is vulnerable to erosion if not cared for. There is a narrow track that descends across the face of the hill, which is needed for small earth-moving equipment to maintain the slope. Inclined Elevation’s two-pitch technology allowed enough clearance under the lift for the equipment to pass easily. We also required that the footings supporting the lift, and the installation technique, disturb the relatively unstable soil as little as possible. John and his team came up with a simple, effective solution and took care to be gentle with the slope. They are creative people who are dedicated to their craft…and the quality of the product really does speak for itself.
This investment made a major dent in our particular pocketbook, but we have absolutely no regrets. It really amounts to the same thing as an extension to the house – one that brings the lake right up to the patio door! We look forward to hanging out at the beach much more than before. And our property’s value just jumped significantly.
Bravo John, Jason, Sarah, Ryan, and Nathan! And thank you – our lives are better because of your fine work.
This lift needed to span a tractor roadway used for landscaping and had to be high enough to allow the tractor with a full bucket underneath.
We started with a string-line to define the track to ensure the lift met all design criterion.

The upper station fit really nicely into the space the lift owner built ahead of time.
Getting the tractor under the track was a must.
