4 Day Fishing Trip on Jolly Island with Friends
We had a fun & relaxing time on Jolly Island mid-August. It was our first time staying on the St. Lawrence river and I would highly recommend it. The property owner Hayes was super responsive and the property offers incredible views of the river, basketball hoop, tennis court and a sand volleyball court. The main house is a bit rustic and was built circa 1930 and updated over the years but it was exactly what 9 fishing buddies were looking for and we'll be back again in the next year or two.

Another jolly week at Jolly!
Our group of 10 aging Fishermen had another awesome week at Jolly Island. Great location to get away while being close enough to civilization if you need something you can't live without. Property is awesome, we had one spectacular sunset after another to cap off long days of fishing. Hosts are awesome as well, quickly responding to questions with great communication throughout. We look forward to heading back there again next year!
