Great property along the St. Lawrence! Home adjoins a marina where you can literally walk over for local river tours. Spacious deck looks out over the river with a fire pit below next to an available dock. If you'd ever told me what I would enjoy most on a vacation was sitting in the evenings looking out at the water I would not have believed you. I was wrong. Would definitely go back again!

Can’t beat the location right on the river.. large deck is perfect for outdoor enjoyment. Having a dock available made for easy fishing. Charming cottage on the St. Lawrence River!

Last minute booking made easy. Fishing trip with my dad. Perfect location to get out and get on your fishing spots. Definitely stay again.

Great to walk out back door onto dock & boat for fishing.

Guys fishing trip. Would stay again.

This property could not be located in any better! Between Alex Bay and Clayton and right next to Clayton boat rides. Very spacious home. We spent most of our time on the new back deck or by the fire pit. Nice long dock to fish off of as well. We enjoyed preparing our meals while staying there for 10 days. Everything you needed was there for you to use. We would definitely stay there again.

Spent summers on the St. Lawrence and it was the perfect location to enjoy all the area has to offer and to see the area after 36 years of being away. Darla was great and responds quickly. Everything we needed and more was available in the house.

Wonderful location!!! Close to everything and the view is breathtaking.

Uneven floors are tricky after boating all day. Low ceiling fans. Hit my hands couple times. Not good if you’re over 6’. Air conditioners only in bedrooms. Deck, dock and location can’t be better. Ramp and trailer storage walking distance. Only 100’ away. Very convenient. Perfect location, location and views. Oh yea, washer didn’t work. Overall liked the cottage and totally enjoyed.

Kitchen updated and nice. Bedroom with twin beds needs electrical fixed- unsafe- when light or air on for 10 minutes, wall socket became hot. We let the owner know. Cottage needs updating, sounds like they are working on that. The deck is great and there is a beautiful view! Owner very nice.

I have been going to the river for years and recently into Canada for early fishing trips. This year due to no access to Canada went back to the river. This cottage was super convenient, close to a marina and boat launch where we could store our trailers. On the water with a nice view, close to Clayton where you can boat and tie up to public docs for a visit, lunch, etc. Nice new deck with lots of space and table for six. Would definitely come back again.

Couldn’t get into Canada this year, so we tried the St Lawrence near where we cross the border. The rental is in a great location for easy river access with a good dock and boat launch next door. Cottage had everything we needed to chow down between fishing sessions and had comfortable sleeping arrangements. We had a fun week even though we had trouble zeroing in on the smallmouth.

We had an amazing stay. The cabin was beautiful, it could use some updating but it sounds like they are going to start doing more work to it. There was plenty of room for the 4 of us and our golden retriever. The Sunsets were breathtaking and I enjoyed going out on the its kayak to watch them. Overall a good experience.

Great place on the water. Excellent location and dock.

The property manager was very responsive and met us no problem. The house was a cozy rustic place overlooking the river. The sunroom and deck were lovely. We had a fire in the chiminea the first night and were very happy with the setting on the water. We kayaked and took our canoe out onto the river and fished. Even caught a large mouth bass right near the dock. We had comfortable beds and the air conditioners were a plus in the heat. We had some taller young boys and adults and they had to be careful to not hit heads on the ceiling fans. Otherwise we were happy with the rental.

We enjoyed our stay at this place in Clayton. The location was great- central to everything. And the views from the back were gorgeous! The cabin was quaint and clean. The back deck was situated perfectly to catch the last rays of sunlight. The owner was very nice and responsive. Being “pet friendly” was a big bonus for us as well. Overall it was a good experience and I would recommend staying there.

When calling to cancel our stay, Darla stated that she would give us 10% off the bill. When asked about the difference, she said 'oh I only meant the balance'. Upon arriving, there were fallen shelves on floor in bedroom, which we cleaned up . Washing machine was broken when arrived, fixed only to have her dog pee on the carpet and pillow on the floor. Was cleaned up by a paper towel. Washing machine broke after a week on 7/30, she said it would be fixed on 8/9. When asked her comment was, 'I have invested an extremely large amount of money into the repair of this machine already and I am going to work with the company I have selected.' My comment 'to wait a week and 1/2 is ridiculous. Also we have spent a lot of money to be here with the expectation that there would be a WORKING washing machine, a clean cottage and drinking water. This is our vacation which has been interrupted with nonsense. Which obviously you don't care about at all'. The cleat fell broke off the dock and was not repaired. There is mold in shower. The camp fell off it's foundation and floor is slanted so much that the sliding door in the living room can't be opened. We had to buy our own water which was not mentioned in the add. The water dispenser button sticks which she knows about. Spider webs on ceiling all over the camp which was noticed on our arrival. Ice cube trays filthy on bottom. When texting about the conditions, Darla's comment 'The fan is unserviceable in bedroom but there was an air conditioner. The bed was not to your liking even though there was another adult bedroom with a firmer mattress and air conditioner.' (The firmer mattress that she is referring to in my text, was a mattress with a date of 6/8/98 with 2 egg shell foam mats on it.).' There was not ONE solid surface where we could put our 'stuff' as there was chachki stuff all over the place. Her used toothbrushes and toothpaste were in the bathroom, including her clothes and miscellaneous junk. The cottage has extremely low ceilings. This is absolutely no way for a rental property to be. We rented the place for a month to celebrate my 70th birthday. We could only stand it for less than 3 weeks, due to the mold, mothball and mildew smell of the place. When asked to receive a partial refund, her comment was NO. I am sending a copy of this letter to the Village of Clayton, NY as it is unhealthy.

Everything about the cottage was fantastic. Great location, awesome deck right on the water, and a beautiful view. The private floating dock providing easy access to the river was great. The cottage had all the amenities you need, and the cable TV came in handy on one stormy night. I would definitely stay here again.

The positives are location and view. The negatives are plenty, but foremost was the inadequate electrical system that was unable to support the several electrical space heaters and just about anything else. You could warm bedrooms, and you could warm kitchen and sunroom, but not at the same time. When the bedroom heaters were running, you could not have any other power draw, not even a light, or the breaker for that portion of the cottage would trip. In addition, there were no smoke detectors nor fire extinguishers. The next issue that caused problems for us, was the overpowering smell of mothball crystals found in the bottom of the kitchen trash can. One of our party vomited and another developed a migraine that lasted days. Other negative issues include; though noted as having them in the listing, there was no washer nor dryer. The owner assured us a refund on a pet fee when we decided not to bring the pet, we have not yet received the refund. It’s more than a month since the promise was made. Other negatives could be listed, but these are the ones that make it hard to recommend this as a place to stay, particularly when it is cold enough outside that you want heat on the inside.

My dad and I went on a fishing trip at the beginning of October and this cottage exceeded all of our expectations. The kitchen and sunroom looked right out into the beautiful st. Lawrence river, it was a perfect setting to wake up with a cup of coffee and watch the big ships pass by. There is a big deck and a nice floating dock where we were able to park the boat that we rented. We had a fantastic weekend and will be back again.

Comfortable home equipped with everything you need; fantastic deck for dining out & watching sunsets; and the WiFi allowed me get some work done (and I'd rather be there than at my desk any day). I would definitely stay again.

Rented a boat and having at your own dock was great.

We recently spent a few days celebrating a family reunion. My wife and I and 2 of my adult children, with their spouses spent a long weekend at the cottage. The cottage is in a lovely location, right on the river with its own dock. There are 3 bedrooms, and eat-in kitchen, sun room and living room. We spent most of our time in the sun room due to its airiness and beautiful view. The cottage came complete with linens and towels. The kitchen had everything we needed though to be honest we only ate breakfast. Parking is limited to 3 vehicles. I would definitely use again.

great spot to be at
