Overall, this was a great location for kids and family to explore the 1000 Islands, in any direction. The fact we could walk to many restaurants, shops,restaurants and a beautiful park on the river was a definite plus!We could have used better lighting in the kitchen at night and a lamp and waste basket in the smaller third bedroom, but everything else was great.I left a beloved baseball hat behind, and the owner, Ashley was very kind in offering to send it to me!Thank you so much to the owners!

This property was just what we needed for our family vacation in Alex Bay! The house was big enough for our dog kennel and the yard was great for him to run on a tether. It was within walking distance to the shops, restaurants, and boat docks. From the lookout point you could see Bolt Castle. It was perfect!

The house was very clean and the owner was great about answering my questions. The location was ideal! We were able to walk to everything. The only issues involved the porch door which didn’t fully open and the porch steps which need replacement. I would stay here again.

Delightful stay in Alexandria Bay

My family traveled to Alexandria Bay for a wedding on one of the islands and we loved our base at this house. It was in an amazing location, walkable to the main street where the shops, restaurant, bars and churches were located. The hostess was very professional and attentive. We had very good interaction.The house is lovely, we enjoyed having coffee on the front port in the morning. I would stay there again when another chance comes up to visit the area.
