We had a wonderful time. The bay is perfect for viewing boats, fishing and the pedal boats and kayaks were a bonus! The house was fully equipped, very clean and comfortable. The location is perfect. I highly recommend!

The property was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. It was nice that the cupboards were labeled in the kitchen. It had a nice view. It was nice sitting on the deck and watching the freighters go by.

All was good !

Beautiful river and bridge views. Beautiful home and dock. Wake up to the river out of your bedroom ever day. Don’t be worried about the rules. Every Vrbo has them. Didn’t have any issues at all. Great stay well be back next year.

Start with the view and add fishing, boating, location, and gracious amenities and you have a perfect vacation home. Easy access to grocery shopping and half way between Clayton and Alexandria Bay. We went down river to Alexandria to watch fireworks over the castle. Great time.

Location: Perfect! Halfway between Clayton and Alex Bay. Tucked in a bay off the main channel. We didn't mind crossing the bridge to get on and off Wellesley Island. Accommodations: This house was perfect for 4 adults, 2 teenagers, and 2 kids. Two bathrooms were a plus! Appreciated the well-equipped kitchen, A/C, and plenty of seating. Everything was clean, towels and linens were nice, furniture was comfy. The back deck area was wonderful! Groceries: There is a new Price Chopper off the Alex Bay exit of 81 before you cross the TI Bridge. Very nice and big. For the Fishermen: Swan Bay Resort directly across the river from Brown Bay (the location of this house) has a boat ramp. It is free to put in and out if you store your trailer in their storage area ($5 per day). There is gas multiple places including Alex Bay, French Creek, and elsewhere in the vicinity. The boat dock at the house is in need of repairs/renovation but it got the job done this time. There is also no electric (that we could find) at the dock for your trolling batteries.

A great set up with family room and deck views of the St Lawrence river. Much closer to the water then I thought which made it easy to get down to the kayaks and for throwing in a fishing line off the dock. Also liked how everything in the kitchen was labeled for easy reference when looking for mugs, silverware, dishes etc.

We enjoyed our stay at this vacation rental- the view is absolutely stunning. The rental is well taken care of and very clean. We had mostly everything we needed. We did think their rules/fees were a little excessive. However, we understood to a point because we are sure not everyone is respectful when it comes to renting spaces. With thay being said we think they could relax a little on that part. Communication with Property manager was good. They do have a septic system and did state not to over do it with laundry because its sensitive due to the bay, we are a family of 5 so having to do a few loads of laundry is always a must for us. Had to scale it back because of that. Over all our experience was positive and really enjoyed our stay.

Clean, spacious, smooth rental process. Second year we have stayed there and plan to return next year.

This property sits nicely on the St. Lawrence with great views. It was clean, well-equipped, and could comfortably accommodate a large group (4 bedrooms, plus couches and 2 baths). Although there were no restaurants right on Wellesley Island, there were some good ones relatively close. The only area where I felt there could be some improvement is communication. Our departure day fell on a Monday, which is the day the trash can needs to be placed along the exterior paved road, (about an 1/8 mile via a gravel road). The instructions at the rental specifies the renter is to take the trash can to the roadway and then return it onto the property after the trash is picked up. We had an early flight and thus would not be able to return the trash can to the property after the trash was picked up. We sent two texts to Nathan the night before our departure explaining the situation. We never got a response back. Ultimately, we took the trash (and someone else's several bags of trash that was placed in the can) to the designated area of the paved road. Fortunately, I was able to contact the house cleaner who said she would take care of bringing the trash can back to the property.

The property was just right for us. My husband loved being able to see the freighters go past and the state park was close for taking the dog for walks. The property had wonderful views and was in a quiet area. Also Clayton and Alexandria Bay were only about 15 minutes away for shopping trips and siteseeing.

This home is beautiful with an absolutely stunning view of the river!! Everything’s great and has all you need including a game room The downstairs bedroom does need another end table or dresser and maybe some nice wall hooks for hanging things. The stairway is a bit treacherous for us older folk. Again, these are little things and this place is awesome !!

We stayed here last year and loved it! Booked our vacation for this year before leaving. The owners are very nice and there home is our favorite. We pretty much lived on the deck. Which has very comfortable seating. Ate our meals at the table, cooked on the grill watched ships, stars daily and just unplugged and enjoyed our stay. The only negative I can come up with for our week long stay, is that when our vacation ended we had to leave. We are planning for next year already. If staying for a week buy the discounted pass for the bridge, it will save you a lot.

We had a great vacation staying at this property. There were 7 of us total (5 adults and a 2 year old and a 10 month old) and we had plenty of room! The view is amazing and having the ships pass by so close made my dads day(s)! The house is well equipped with everything we needed and more. The outdoor deck area was great! We spent hours just sitting out there as well as fishing off the dock and floating on tubes we brought! Would highly recommend this property!

This was the perfect house for our family! Everything went smoothly and we enjoyed our week together!

Really great location. Communication with the owner was fast and easy. Lots of room for the 8 of us. Incredible views from the house, deck and dock. The new owners are working to smooth out a few rough edges but can't beat the view or the location. Lots of room on the dock for our 4 kayaks and it was easy to dock our rental pontoon. Can't wait to go back.

This home has so much potential but small things that would make it a more comfortable stay are overlooked. The good: This property is in a beautiful location on the River and the scenery can’t be beat. Plenty of linens and quality towels and enough room for a party of eight to coexist comfortably. The dartboard and shuffleboard area gave us something to do in the rain and the master bedroom has a gorgeous view of the River. The patio has plenty of seating. The not so good: Two of the three bedrooms do not have a closet or dresser There is literally nowhere to put your clothes accept to leave them in the suitcase. There are small cubby-like spaces that have cheap plastic slides in front of them which implies a closet, but are really storage cubbies that were being used for just that. It was not a space I would want to put clean clothes even if there were hangers, which there were not. The shades are very inexpensive throughout the house and do nothing to deter the 5am sunrises that the River is famous for. The kitchen is not stocked for big meals, and the only colander was a metal one that was completely rusty. The coffee pot is an old school Mr. Coffee that takes forever to brew. A Keurig would be an inexpensive add that offers value as not everyone likes the same kind of coffee. Also, take note that this property does not have a dishwasher. The listing does not say that it does, but it didn’t even occur to me to check for this in the listing as I have never rented a home that didn’t have one. The gas grill was unusable when we got there. The bottom was literally rusted out and it wouldn’t stay lit. The owner did replace it but it took three days. In the meantime we had to use a small charcoal grill which wasn’t ideal for feeding a large group. Make note that while the patio has a ton of seating, all of it has cushions. If it rains, you are required according to the rules to put the cushions away. We had a lot of rain and therefore spent a lot of time pulling out and putting up cushions. Another inexpensive upgrade would be to replace at least some of the seating with Adirondack chairs. The house has cameras on the exterior, including the patio. I guess I can understand given that it’s a rental property but it felt invasive and uncomfortable. This is a beautifully located property and the owner was responsive to issues. As seasoned renters we expected a bit more at this price point.

The house was beautiful, located on a Bay close to our fishing spots. It easily accommodated 4 couples, 2 dogs and 3 boats. We had a great time.

Comfortable home with a great view. Easy access to the water and nice docking for a boat. Owner easy to communicate with and very friendly.

We have stayed on the river for over 24 years. This home fit perfectly for us. Everything we needed, gorgeous views, excellent views of the river. We did not want to leave believe me! But unfortunately we don't own the home. We can't wait to come back again.

This place is awesome! There was plenty of room for our family of 2 children and 6 adults and 1 dog, and just as much outside seating as there is on the inside! The house was clean and very well stocked with all of the essentials. We especially enjoyed the pedal boat, 2 kayaks and watching the ships, geese and swans from the deck. Check in was a breeze and Nate was very quick to respond to any questions we had. We would highly recommend this place if you want a nice quiet getaway on the St. Lawrence River. We loved it!

Loved this place so relaxing ..and waking up seeing the water outside was wonderful

Nate this was a lovely trip! Thank you. Please add that there are two very nice kayaks in the boat house as well as chairs and tables for dock area as well as wonderful seating area for gas fire table on top. Our favorite spot each night! The umbrella and large deck chairs dining set with cushions and the seating area with cushions next to the four burner large grill. The couch covers are a great idea too. The game room has puzzles, books for kids another table and chairs with folding set. The shuffleboard and dart board were perfect for after dinner. We never turned on the TV.

This rental home was great! We had a fantastic stay with our family. It's perfectly located to enjoy Alex Bay, Wellesley Island & Clayton or just sit on the deck and enjoy the view of the main channel. We would most definitely stay again!
