About this property
Spacious Peaceful home in the Woods on Wellesley Island
Comfortable Spacious House in the woods on Wellesley Island in Westminster Park.
Our magical hideaway in the beauty of the Thousand Islands sleeps up to 10. This is the perfect place for a family to gather or a group of friends to relax and get away from it all. Our home, The Rectory, has 3 bedrooms and a sleeping porch. It has 2 full baths, washer and dryer upstairs and a half bath downstairs. The well equipped kitchen makes it easy to eat in or heat your favorites from home.
As you arrive at our wooded driveway you will love the mossy grounds, tall trees and porches.
There are plenty of windows to let the dappled light in. Our collection of local art gives interest to the clean white walled rooms with beautiful dark wood floors. Both new and antique furniture are mixed to offer interest and comfort.
The kitchen near the main entrance has a great island for drinking coffee and hanging out. The kitchen has large counters making it the perfect place to cook. There is a dishwasher, large refrigerator, oven, stove, toaster, coffee maker and microwave. It is stocked with stainless steel pots and pans as well as basic baking equipment.
With a treehouse like feeling, the beds are on the second floor. Looking out of each window gives the feeling of being in the treetops.
A large screened in sleeping porch on the second floor has a lot to offer. There are two futon bunk beds with a single on top and a double on the bottom. The double can be made into a couch for lounging and reading books. There is a swinging chair and a table and chairs for playing cards or relaxing in the woods. Imagine waking up to the summer birds beautiful songs and the sounds of leaves rustling in the fresh summer breeze.
The Primary bedroom has a very comfortable king size bed and a mini crib, it has a private feeling at the end of the house with four windows and two large closets. Two other bedrooms each have a queen size bed, dresser and a closet. Each side of the beds have built in lamps and a shelf for your things.
There is a wonderful living room with a large screen tv and Wi-Fi. The two full couches are well-suited to playing games or watching a game together.
With a peaceful location on Wellesley Island, Westminster Park, is close to amenities but away from it all. It is 5 miles from the Thousand Islands Bridge. Just a mile away from the Boldt Castle Boathouse you can step back in time as you take the ferry to Heart Island to tour the famous Boldt Castle. The Heart House offers morning treats and specialty coffee drinks to start your day off right. The Thousand Islands Club with fine dining in the River are 1 mile away. There are two golf courses and 8 pickle ball courts less than a mile away also. It is less than 7.4 miles to TI Park where you can walk through the idyllic community of Victorian Style cottages, a 5 star restaurant and an ice cream and lunch spot. You will enjoy listening to music in the Lounge of the Wellesley Hotel or walking to main dock while enjoying an ice cream cone from The Guzzle. The Minna Anthony Nature Center in Wellesley Island State Park is a great place to find activities to delight all ages, trails and an interpretive center with people ready to share their favorite spots. The State Park has a large beach, marina with boat rentals, a general store and places for your favorite athletic activities. The home is in driving distance to Alexandria Bay and Clayton. While not on the water, this beautiful newer home, has views of the water and is close to several state parks with water activities and access.
Across the road from The Rectory, you will find a quite chapel that is perfect for meditation, prayer or simply to read a book. This property boasts a great area for exploring, biking and hiking.
