We fully enjoyed the property. Hosts were very friendly including their dogs that were great fun to play with. Shuffleboard was a bonus!

The location and property were amazing. It is truly right in the heart of Alex bay. Clayton is a 15/20 minute ride by car or boat. Lake of the isles and Canada are right around the corner, and you can see Boldt castle from top of the hill. The boat dock and storage was amazing, we easily fit our two boats there.
The house was great and pictures are accurate. The loft area is a little more suited for kids or teenagers. Would be perfect for a family, or multiple couples. We would definitely stay again, the owners had great communication and were welcoming and answered any and all questions.

Fabulous location right on the river in a protected part of Alexandria Bay. Easy to get the boat out from the long and easily accessible dock, and easy to get to Alex Bay for touristy activities. Home was spacious and comfortable with all the modern amenities needed. The dogs especially liked the large living spaces and the quiet neighborhood for walks.

We had a wonderful time and would definitely return to this spot. The place was very clean and had a great location with plenty of amenities. We had a beautiful view of the river off the porch and had a short walk to the river where we were able to keep our boat docked up. Robert was a very generous host and was always there for us if we needed him. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to be on the river.

Views from the upstairs patio were gorgeous! The home was clean and well equipped. 1 mile from uncle Sam’s boat tours, restaurants and shops! Not sure why they advertise private pool. The pool is gated on to the owners private home. Overall beautiful views and close to town

A friend and I, along with my (2) small dogs, enjoyed a couple relaxing days at this lovely cottage. The home is very clean and well equipped. Great view of River and ships passing, both from the home, as well as while sitting in the beautiful yard, listening to the waterfall built into the rock wall! The big custom arch window, along with skylights t/o the home, bring in lots of sun light and allow you to enjoy the natural beauty of your surroundings even when you are inside. The (2) bedrooms are great, with (1) on the lower level and the 2nd on the 2nd floor, or what is considered the main living area with living room and kitchen. Each of these levels have a full BR, which is great. The loft area has sleeping space for (2) w/ small mattresses on the floor, so that space is best for kids. I think kids would love the space and it would add to their fun vacation. Rob was very welcoming to his property, which was appreciated because you are sharing a big open yard with his main home. He was eager for us to enjoy all the property had to offer, but he was not intrusive at all. Very nice host. A big plus is the option to use Rob's pool, which is unusual for a rental. If traveling with someone challenged by stairs, this might not be the best property as you have a full set of stairs to get to the main living area of the home (but great handrail), as well as a full set of stairs to get to the water if you wanted to access the River. Very nice accommodations and beautiful setting.

The listing did not do this property justice! Absolutely gorgeous location and the cottage was incredible!
10.0
We have frequented the 1000 Islands for 35 years and keep our 38’ boat at a nearby marina, however we rent each summer to entertain friends and family.
The property is beautifully maintained and is unrivaled for its views, proximity to the restaurants, boathouse, and homeowner. We received a warm welcome from Robert (owner) who highlighted all the property’s amenities, making us feel at home.
Property sleeps 4 adults and 2 teenagers ( loft) comfortably. Kitchen, bathrooms and living spaces worked wonderfully and met all our needs.
A great opportunity to have the best views and location in all the 1000 islands.

Weekend Getaway
The house is in a perfect location. Great views from the balcony of the St. Lawrence River. The check in process left me a little uncomfortable as they said they’d leave the property unlocked. We arrived in the evening when it was dark. Also the key that was left to lock the doors didn’t work so when we left we had to leave it open. But other than that the property was exactly how it was described and we enjoyed our weekend.

Good but deceiving
Property and location was gorgeous. We had some minor issues come up and reached out but never heard back. (Still have not reached back).
Surprised for lack of instruction checking in and out as well as timing confusion.
A ton of burned out light bulbs in the kitchen, patio, and bathroom. Photos were extremely deceiving of sleeping situations and was pretty dissapointing but we made due. Grill was missing the ignitor button, no yard lighting for night walks. Make sure to bring your own toilet paper if you like more than 1 ply airplane grade.
Overall we had a good stay but would not return.

Amazing view and location
We loved our stay the house is in a great location and the use of the dock was great. Amazing views, amazing waterfall by the water and nice chairs with pergola overlooking the river. The fire pit is really nice and there was lots of wood. The pool was small and shallow great for kids, not so great for adults. The only only negative is the house is loud so would suggest only a couple or two couples rent if staying in anything but upstairs bedroom you can hear everything.

Feel Like a Millionaire
Truly an amazing property! The grounds were amazing and allowed you to embrace the full beauty of the St. Lawerence. Although, we went off season we were able to simple enjoy the comforts of the home. Ifyou go off season be prepared to cook your meals. The restaurant options are extremely limited if the off season.

Girls Weekend
We had a great time, despite being winter. The house is the perfect location, quiet and peaceful, yet minutes away from stores, restaurants, etc. The property is beyond beautiful and very nicely kept. I would recommend staying any time of year. The location gives you the best view of the River and the main Channel! I would definitely come back.

Nice stay
The house was a little dusty and the kitchen dishes were not entirely clean. For the price per night, window dressings and extra bedding could be better. Overall, an OK stay!

Short stay but relaxing and worthwhile!
I had read the many positive reviews of this property prior to booking and was very excited for my family to go! Everything was pretty much as described however I found it odd that we were not greeted by anyone throughout the stay. Perhaps this is common of Vrbo rentals though. The day of check-out we realized there was an issue with the washer and could not wash all the linens but when we called the given number, we were told they would let housekeeping know and it didn’t seem to be an issue. I would not let any of these things deter anyone from staying at this property as it has stunning views and if you have children who enjoy fishing and swimming, then they will be well occupied! We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and it was nice to relax for a few days!

Beautiful. Right on the river. We fished and jumped off the dock. Kids had a great time as did we. Utilized the shuffleboard table nightly! The house had everything we needed to cook a few dinners. Close to town. Owner was more than accommodating. Went to Riley’s for lunch one day and it was amazing!
