Amazing 1000 Island Getaway

Wonderful

This house was a great place to stay for our group of 6 "mature" women. The surroundings were beautiful and the house was extremely comfortable. Everything we needed was supplied and had no worries. We all enjoyed seeing the black squirrels, which are not commonly where we live, as well as the other wildlife.

The view was even better then the pictures in the listing. The home was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The property manager proactively reached out to be sure we had information we needed to check in. Had a wonderful birthday dinner at the 1000 Islands Club about a mile down the road. Would definitely stay here again!

Girls trip...3 elder sisters plus second generation niece and her 2 daughters. We all agreed everything was perfect at this location. From bedroom choices to outside porches to full kitchen amenities everything we needed was at our fingertips. Location couldn't have been better. View of the St Lawrence, glimpses of ships traveling in the distance, perfect weather and wonderful flat hiking right in the neighborhood. The area was charming and steeped in early history of the thousand Islands perfect at this location

Family gathering for memorial service

Rented this home to accommodate family travelling from out of state to attend a memorial service for my mother. The thoughtful host had fresh flowers and a beautiful card expressing condolences for us in the home. The house was perfect for our needs with plenty if space in the backyard for the kids to play.

Very Comfortable and Great location,

We had a group of nine and enjoyed our stay, love the location’ we were a bit nervous about bunk bed shacking, house in need of minor repairs, some light we couldn’t figure out, maybe switches could be labeled’. Could not find a write up on house rules. Overall great time together, great view, could cook nice sit down meals.

Thousand Island Vacation

The house is spacious and could easily accommodate the family, including our dog. Overall, the house is clean, but the carpets in the bedrooms and the upholstery in the living room are stained. The view of the St. Lawrence River and Boldt Castle is stunning. We enjoyed the enclosed porch for morning coffee and rainy day board games. We appreciated the outdoor spaces, including the fire pit. Communication with the property manager was always courteous and responded to promptly. The only disappointment was that the house really only sleeps 10.The listing indicates that there is a twin and a double sofa bed in the common spaces, but there is not. The property is lovely and in a beautiful location.

Exceeded all our expectations

This was the perfect setting for our family retreat. The property was spacious enough to accommodate our whole family, including our dog! The layout allows for both communal family time and quiet moments of solitude. The views and neighborhood were spectacular. Everyone on the Island was friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed morning walks with the dog and had delightful conversations with neighbors who were out and about. The property was spotless and well-maintained, making it instantly inviting. All amenities were in excellent condition, from the kitchen appliances to the comfortable beds. And to top it off, thoughtful extras like dish detergent and hygiene products were also provided, making our stay even more convenient. It really felt like a home away from home. It's not often that a vacation rental checks all the boxes for cleanliness, comfort, location, and pet-friendliness, but this property managed to do so effortlessly. We left with our hearts full and minds already planning a return trip.

Nice view, fair on the inside

The view was absolutely stunning. The internet of the house needed some remodeling. Bedrooms could’ve been nicer. Master bedroom and one bedroom with bunks had televisions but the others didn’t. Several light switches didn’t work and several light bulbs were blown. Couldn’t access the freezer well. Door doesn’t open all the way. Bathroom in master bath toilet paper holder was falling off the wall and the other full bathroom didn’t have a toilet paper holder at all. Outside was wonderful and kitchen was fully stocked except for a cookie sheet.

Family getaway

Upon arrival we had no wifi as soon as I reached out to owner he messaged back right away to help us get it fixed. We never had to wait hours for them to reply it was always with in a few minutes they got back with us. The kitchen was stocked (tools/appliances) well enough the we were able to make meals every day. Rooms worked out for everyone we had myself and husband in one room our 4 littles in the 4 bunk room and the other rooms were taken by our older 3 teens. The kids loved the property it snowed while we were there the kids had a blast with all the space and the view was amazing. Looking to hopefully be able to book for the summer Down fall was the toll bridge you had to pass through when traveling to places that weren’t going towards Canada. With it off season we had to pass the toll many times. A toll pass is a must.
