This is the 3rd year our group has traveled out of town for a long weekend. This property was 100% true to the listing and actually had more room than we expected.
Dick was easy to work with and would stay there again if we find our way back in Alex Bay.
5.0
The home was clean, the kitchen well stocked and the beds and furniture were comfortable. The family enjoyed the multi level patio/decks and sitting on the dock.I’ve spent a lot of time on the St. Lawrence, and it can be hard to find a spot that has enough bedrooms/beds that can accommodate a group comfortably, has dock access for a boat, and adequate parking. Appreciated proximity to A-Bay and grocery stores. Dick was an excellent host. We hope to return for another trip next year!

We went up for a college graduation weekend and while the place was a little larger than we needed (someone couldnt make it) it turned out perfect for our group. Wonderful views of the St Lawrence and we saw some massive ships go by. Even caught a fish off the dock as we fly fished one evening. The house: Spacious kitchen, high-end large grill which worked great, nice large dining room table for 14+ and plenty of beds for all to sleep comfortably. Nice linens and towels. Could use some shampoos in the bathrooms as an extra touch. Exterior of the house could use some work as there is paint coming off in numerous places and decking could use a power wash. The driveway: Slightly odd location off the resort access road: you end up driving down a small part dirt part paved lane past a dumpster and heavy equipment/trucks and outbuilding to get to the property which itself has a nice paved driveway and shared lane. Odd access. Met the neighbor a few doors down when her dog came to visit and she was very nice as was the caretaker next door. Overall a very nice stay and I would stay here again knowing the "quirks nad features".

Best rental experience ever!!!
The property was better then i could have imagined. Stayed for 5 days over Thanksgiving with family of 14. Plenty of room for everyone. The house was spotless and had everything you needed from towels, linens, cooking equipment, etc. Dick was a super host and provided the best communication I have had using VRBO. Would highly recommend this property. Thanks again Dick for a wonderful vacation.

Great Location and space
We had a family reunion that accommodated all 13 of us as we had plenty of towels, outdoor seating and beds. We enjoyed having a covered patio and the area on the deck! Having the piano was a plus! We will be back!

Had another great long weekend. Weather was great. Hope to be back next year!
Our family stayed for the second time at this spacious location. Plenty of room for 15 people with all having their own space. Missed having the use of the hot tub as it was not working. A few of the beds we believe could use new mattresses. But overall a great family space. Hope to be back next year!

Absolutely Beautiful
I did not give this property a 5 star rating..Reason being The property owner did not have any communication what so ever...Never was told anything of any codes to get in..Had to figure everything out on are own at arrival..Don’t get me wrong the place was absolutely beautiful & we had a great time but there was an issue with the hot tub..One of the main reason for renting the property & feeling about spending extra for that reason just to find out when getting there it was not in working order nor were we informed...Contacted the owner after trying several times to get a email back a day later the brain was gone on the hot tub...Don’t mind spending the money for something if everything is in working order & never did he offer to knock some money off for it not working....Other than that we had a great time...

Wedding Memories
We had a wonderful wedding at this property and we’re blessed with great weather as well as a great location. The house easily accommodated 30 people for the reception and was very comfortable for everyone staying and visiting all week to enjoy boating, jet skis, etc.
Thanks Richard

A week in paradise!
The 1000 Islands has to be one of the prettiest places on earth. It was a wonderful week for my wife and me, our 2 children and their spouses, and our 3 grandchildren. You can not miss renting River Royalty and its wonderful host/owner!

Great Location
This property accommodated our group that fishes on the River each year. The property was clean and comfortable, amenities plentiful, and the location was perfect for getting on the River. The owner even brought fresh vegetables from his garden for our "chef" to use during our stay. Can't ask for more than that!

Gorgeous Home.
The home is gorgeous and very comfortable. Our stay was during the pandemic so all meals were eaten in. If you are fussy about your cutlery you'll want to bring your own. Everything else was fine and the fridge is new and upscale. Richard was very good to us and the side yard was wonderful to throw balls for our young dog. The deck is the best! We pretty much lived out there - loved the chaise lounges and it was easy to block off for our dogs even though our little one did escape and join the neighbors party. When we realized he was gone we found him sitting in someone's lap! We had a great view of the massive ships on the river and in our cove all motorized vehicles went very slow. The only negative is that it wasn't as private as we thought it would be and as we prefer and there is apparently a boat engine repair shop across the way. The new landscaping is beautiful and the side road to get to the house is a nice place to walk. It's also an easy walk into town and the state park down the road had nice trails. It was a lovely and relaxing vacation overall.

Wonderful stay!
We just returned from a wonderful stay at this this excellent property. The house was very clean and met all our our needs. It is an excellent layout for a large family group, we had an extended family gathering of 13 people. The house has plenty of space for large groups and lots of nice quiet places when you want some quiet time- -the large wrap around deck, the lower garden area, the water deck. The house is very nicely furnished, has a large, well stocked kitchen, a large dining room table that was perfect for meals and playing card games. The master bedroom has a private bathroom with a jetted tub , that was, thoroughly, enjoyed at the end of a busy day. I can't say enough about how much we all enjoyed the house! Also, 2 boat ramps, for if you bring your own boat or rent one. The owner even left us delicious tomatoes from his garden. So much to see and do in this area. Would love to stay here again!

Best Location, Vacation House and Value for large family!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The pictures do not do justice to the amazing outdoor space. Dick, the owner, upgraded the outdoor space earlier this year . . . and it is amazing. The house is also incredibly nice and very spacious. The kitchen is very functional, two fridges, two dishwashers and we loved spending time in the house. But who wants to spend time indoors with this great location and wonderful views of the River and Alex Bay.
Thanks again Dick, for making this a wonderful vacation for our family . . . we will be back!!!

Thanks for the Memories at "The River"!
Just returned from one of our families ( 3 generations ) favorite vacations. Such a great place to social distance during these times. Accommodations are top notch. Beautiful porches and waterfront oasis. Our grandchildren loved fishing off the dock. Our host Richard was great. We can't wait to return to this wonderful location.

Best Stay in the Thousand Islands
Directly across from the "A-Bay" harbor, the location is a 20 minute walk or 2 minute boat ride into town. Being in a cove that travels back into the Edgewood Park, the house is in a perfect location for kids to kayak safely. The house contains plenty of seating areas and dining areas for large families to gather. All cooking, sleeping, and bathroom essential items are provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and cannot wait to be back!

Perfect!!
Thank you so much for the use of your beautiful home. We were five couples and two small dogs, and we never once felt cramped. When we were home, we spent the majority of the time on the expansive porch watching the ships and boats. And, we enjoyed the "fresh from the garden" vegetables brought to us by the owner, Richard. Another year on vacation with close friends making wonderful memories. Thanks again for the use of your beautiful home, and we will definitely be back!

May Girls Getaway
This property was exactly as pictured and it was beautiful. There were 8 ladies in our group and we loved the house so much they want to plan another trip. The owner and property manager were always in reach via phone or email. Very clear instructions about arrival and departure. Lots of great resturant and sight seeing suggestions. A delight to work with. Hopefully we will stay again!!

Fantastic Place to Stay Inside and Out
A group of twelve 60 y/o bicyclers stayed here the week of 09-16 Sep and what a delight. The home is huge and has everything you would want and more. It easily accommodated all of us with respect to beds, baths and dining. Lots of room to spread out. The setting is heavenly, on the water looking right down into the St. Lawrence, wrap-around deck, summer kitchen, room to store 12 bikes, dock to fish off. Lots of privacy but close enough to many shopping and eating amenities. The owner (Richard) stopped by to greet us and followed up to make sure all was well, and believe me it was with all of us. If you are planning to stay in the 1000 Islands area with a large group or just your family, this is the place to stay. You won't be disappointed.

Incredible house
We had a fairly large group stay in this home for 3 nights. What a great place. Pleanty of room and very clean. We came up during a snow storm and the driveway had a ton of snow on it. I called the owner and he had someone come plow us out within minutes. Get location!!!! Huge, beautiful home!! Highly recomended!!
