Snug Harbor Cottage

Very nice hilltop location with a view of Snug Harbor. Comfortable breezes when the weather is otherwise warm & humid. Plenty to do around here. I enjoyed visiting Cape Vincent, Clayton & Tibbets Point -- also sailing my boat at Long Point State Park. This is a great place for fishermen & women, with marinas & boat launches nearby. Hosts Trang & William were most accommodating, checking up on me regularly to make sure everything was OK.

This is a 50 year old trailer in a second rate trailer park

This property description could not be more inaccurate. The 50 year trailer with 6’ high doors and 3” high thresholds could not be more dangerous other than the torn vinyl floors. All the furniture is threadbare or ripped. One woefully inadequate window ac for the 4 rooms that could not cool below 80 degrees in the daytime. A stove top with no oven, tv antenna with sporadic channels, bare shoplight bulbs for a kitchen light are just a few of the inadequate items in this trailer. It is described as being in a resort. There is a marina and sub par restaurant in the trailer park but nothing else. The burned out trailer behind this one is an example of what the owner calls a resort. The window shades are paper thin and don’t stop the sun. The windows are trailer windows that open with a prop rod The owner was unable to rectify any of these problems and ignored my request for a partial refund. Old sagging beds, 2’ wide accordion doors, 1/8 plywood walls round put this “resort” home. Be aware of what you are booking because this place should be condemned.

Cape Vincent Cottage

This little gem fullfilled all our needs. Great area. Private, lots of room. We had about 15 visitors for a cookout. It was perfect. We had lots of room. No crowding. The views were fantastic. Close to all the areas we wanted to visit. Easy to find. Perfect hostess. We would definitely rent this again. We loved being there. Could not ask for anything better. There was 4 adults. We were all very comfortable. It was great to be able to see sights I had not seen for many years. I loved everything about our stay. Thank you Trang and William.

About the host

Hosted by Trang L Russell

Host profile image
We just wanted to take a minute to introduce ourselves, my name is Trang, and my husband is William. We are locals to Rochester, NY, and we started visiting the Thousand Islands a few years ago and fell in love with the area. The sun rises, sunsets and the stars are beautiful from our cottage. We love to wake up early to catch the sunrise and go for a paddle in the kayaks, which will be accessible to you if you decide to do so. Please don't hesitate to send me a message if you would like to inquire about places to eat and things in the area.

We look forward to being your host and sharing the beauty that Cape Vincent has to offer.

Respectfully,
Trang and William
