Great place to stay

Awesome view and location. Pet friendly was terrific. If I had one concern it would be the small bathroom but I would stay again. Owners were great. I highly recommend them.

Wonderful week!

The property and grounds are very clean and well kept. The smaller cabins are perfect 4 a couple and young family. The 2 larger ones are much roomier. We had a wonderful time,owners are good people and very accommodating. If you fish or boat you will love it here. Quiet, spectacular view. Thank you Larry and Lee, Gods Blessings

What an absolutely wonderful place!…. The cottage is small and is perfect for a couple or a small family.The views are incredible and the outdoor access is amazing. the owners have a row of Adirondack chairs right along the beach to sit and watch the ships go by ,watch the sunset, and enjoy water activities like swimming, boating, kayaking, and fishing. Downtown Clayton is absolutely picturesque along the water and it’s about a seven minute drive from the cottage. Alexandria Bay is less than 15 minutes away. tons of boat tours are available to explore the area and are very reasonably priced.The owners are so friendly and accommodating and will do everything to make your stay wonderfulwe have already booked our trip there for next year!

Relax on the River

We really enjoyed our visit to the river. The cottage was clean and comfortable. The docking is a HUGE bonus! Watching the ships pass by is just magical. But what we enjoyed the most was meeting wonderful friends we’ll have for a lifetime.❤️ We can’t wait to return!

Relax on the River

Great location on the river to enjoy the water. Kayaking, boating, fishing, or just relaxing and watching the the big ships pass and the beautiful sunsets. Lynn and Mabel were the perfect hosts. The area is safe and great for a solo traveler. Centrally located, it's so easy to get to Clayton, Alex Bay and Wellesley Island. Thank you for a perfect getaway.

Host profile image
This cottage was built in the early 1950's and has been in the family since. Current owners, Lynn, Lee and Larry obtained ownership in 2000 and with their wives Mabel, Marsha and Susan have been sharing responsibilities and hospitality since then. We truly enjoy our renters and sharing this beautiful area known as the Thousand Islands.
We strive to keep our cottages neat and clean. some of our renters have been staying with us since the 1950's and 1960's. Many of our renters have enjoyed staying with us for years and continue to come back and we enjoy having them.
