Like staying at Grandma's house

Lovely stay. So homey. So cozy. We stayed for 2 weeks and loved every minute. Adorable fish theme throughout. Dee is an amazing host who goes the second mile to make you feel at home. We have stayed many places, but this one is the best! We are hoping to make this an annual thing.

The apartment was great! The themed decor was cozy and super cute. There were games and dvds and anything you could think of if you needed a snack or a bandaid or a blow dryer. Hosts were very pleasant and accommodating and it was less than 15 minutes from Otter Creek Nature Preserve, a drive-in theater, and Alexandria Bay. Overall I’d give our stay a 4.75/5 and my only issues were: being woken up at 1:30am from the firehouse sirens around the corner (not to the fault of the home owners) and when I initially booked I had thought it was a waterfront property so I was surprised once we received the actual address, but that was my fault. Everything else was great!

Sweet and SO cute!!

My husband and I are in a band that was playing in Thousand Island Park for the 4th of July weekend. Everything was sold out, so we booked this not knowing anything about Redwood or its proximity to TIP. We have stayed in a lot of properties in a lot of cities, but I can honestly say this is one of the nicest, most comfortable, and well appointed homes we have ever stayed in. No detail was overlooked. Dee and Bill are wonderful hosts, responsive, and even left us a delicious homemade treat, in addition to a very well stocked refrigerator and pantry. We are looking forward to staying there again in two weeks when we play another gig at TIP!

Love this sweet place

My husband is a drummer for a well known party band and had gigs on two different weekends in Thousand Island Park. Everything was booked, so we ended up here…and I am so glad we did. Dee and Bill are the quintessential hosts. The place is spotless and set up like a little house with everything (and I mean everything) you could possibly need. Snacks? The refrigerator and cupboard are filled, and Dee leaves a delicious homemade treat as well. Entertainment? There’s an extensive library of DVDs, books, and games. Fishing? There’s a pretty lake a 5-minute walk away. We will be staying here whenever we have shows in the area, even if there’s availability closer.

The perfect apartment for a fishing getaway, with a host that was very accommodating.

The decor was perfectly fitting and appreciated for a fisherman’s getaway. Our host was very accommodating and left many many pleasantries throughout the apartment (snacks, beverages, dvds, menus, soaps and shampoo’s) - it was all great. The location is convenient for all the fishing you could ask for, plus trails, wineries, and a downtown scene. We would love to stay again!

Comfortable and cozy duplex

The duplex is in a quiet little village close to Alexandria Bay. The home is clean and lovingly decorated with a fishing theme. The beds in the upstairs bedroom are comfortable. The host Dee is very thoughtful since we were welcomed with a very well stocked kitchen and had even banana bread and a fruit bowl provided for us. Dee thought of all amenities a traveler could need, so if you forgot something, Dee has you covered! We felt more like family than guest's staying at "A Simple Roof".

About the host

Hosted by Dee Boyer

Host profile image
Long Term Care RN, began this a bnb in preparation for retirement. She and husband enjoy hosting, offering an alternative setting of VERY SIMPLE accommodations for fishermen and families traveling to or through the area. Friends and family have found it difficult reserving camps on the lakes as so many are booked early, and quite costly. Our goal is to make visiting our beautiful area's lakes and waterways a comfortable and affordable experience.

Why they chose this property

We moved to Redwood (husband's hometown) and started A Simple Roof 20 years later to offer a rustic camping experience within walking distance to the lake with free space to park and charge boats, ATVs, RVs, and tents. We provide a quiet small town atmosphere, simple, clean, private accommodations; like going to a grandparent's or summer camp.

What makes this property unique

Host lives on other side of duplex, ready to assist as needed. Can offer suggestions for area activities, fast food, fine dining.
Co-host can provide fishing tips for nearby rivers/streams, lakes - ice fishing, or surface/trolling.
