Great location

This cottage was perfect for my son and I. We rented a boat and were able to dock it at the property. By boat it is very close to Boldt Castle and Alex Bay. It is also very quiet since it is tucked inside a bay on the island.

Wonderful Island Cottage

This property was so nice! The rental is clean and well maintained and the furnishings and fixtures are lovely. We absolutely loved the view out of all of the windows, especially the picture window, and we really enjoyed exploring Wellesley Island and the 1000 Islands area in general. The owner was very pleasant and quick to respond if we had any issues. If you are considering this place, don't hesitate.

Relaxion and fun

We loved this property. The views of the lake were beautiful. We woke up to the most wonderful sunrises right from our rooms. We enjoyed the private dock and the lake was perfect for swimming and kayaking. Lynnore was so helpful with recommendations for things to do and places to eat and for letting us use the kayaks. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. We enjoyed going to the nature center and beach at the state park and Alexandria Bay and Clayton were very close. We hope to come back soon!

Thank you for the great review Amy!! It was a pleasure having you here. It didn’t go unnoticed that you and your peeps Thoroughly enjoyed being here! My neighbors even noticed how much you relaxed on the dock and in the water they said, they thought you liked it better than we do!! Hope to see you next year❤️

Sunshine, fishing, boating, and rest

This place was perfect for myself, my husband, our son and his wife. The dock was great for our 24 foot boat. The guys fished all week. We enjoyed some spectacular morning sunrises from our windows upstairs. It was so easy to come and go by boat to explore the Lake of the Isles and the St. Lawrence River. We loved the view as we cooked and ate our meals either upstairs or on the deck below that was our hang out spot. The neighbors were friendly and helpful. I t was quiet and peaceful during our week there.. The host was wonderful. I would recommend this place.

Wellesley Island Getaway

The apartment was just as advertised. It is clean, quiet, right on the waterfront, and the owner is super friendly. It is a cute little apartment full of windows and lake views. On the island there are multiple state parks, and awesome little nature center, hiking trails, beautiful flora and fauna. The Thousand Islands Club restaurant was delicious. There is a ton to explore, and it is an outdoorsman's paradise. There is a dock for a boat and world class fishing. Alexandria Bay and Clayton are within 10-15 minutes, and there are plently of attractions. This was a wonderful stay and we highly recommend! One issue was the size of the beds. I am a huge guy, and it was a little tough figuring out where to sleep. It gets hot up there, so use the AC!

Thank you, Jason for the great review! I’m glad you enjoyed reminiscing. 🎣 I wish I could fit a king size bed for bigger people. There are two weeks in July that really make it difficult to stay cool hopefully the portable AC units provided you were able to maintain comfort. Hope to see you again!

If you want to be babysat by the owner this is your place to stay

Owner babysat our stay making it very uncomfortable to stay at the property. She also charges a cleaning fee when booking the reservation and states that if you leave the cottage as you found it that you will receive a refund of your deposit. The place was left as clean as it was when we walked in with the rugs vacuumed and the tile swiffered however she REFUSED to refund the cleaning fee. She wants the place clean, but she doesn't clean the spider webs all over the house. Would not stay there again. It was also VERY HOT in there not an ideal vacation spot. There is only an in room air conditioner unit not central air. When we arrived it was about 94 degrees in the house and all night really hot and next day it continued to be 84 degrees the entire day. If you want to sweat all day and night and be babysat stay HERE!!!

This tenant booked a reservation for three adults only to find four small children, and two adults in the property and yes I will babysit when they are 4 little children (2 with baby bottles in hand) running up and down three flights of steps there is a huge liability as to the reason why only four people are maximum for the stay And I do indicate that it is not safe for children. As to the cleanliness of the property you were on the water there will be cobwebs all day long and you left dark brown stains all over the living room carpet which had to be shampooed. Swiffer ring was not done I have the pad to prove as I provided you. I have been booking this property for seven years this is my first complaint. As far as the warmth of the property I provided you within 24 hours of a second air conditioner due to your complaints.

Perfect fishing getaway.

Our previous fishing plans fell through and we were lucky to find this rental semi last minute. The owner has just refurbished this property inside and out. It was perfect for two of us. There is one bedroom and another sitting room that can be used as a second bedroom with supplied mattress. There was also a fold out couch in the living room which we didn’t use. Good dishes, cookware, utensils, coffee pot, toaster, microwave, blender were in the kitchen. An AWESOME gas grill outside was put to use for steak and chicken dinners…. Outdoor cooking utensils supplied. We needed a sizable dock and theirs was in excellent condition and more than large enough for a 21’ boat with 4 feet of depth. The outdoor deck had brand new chairs and lounge chairs on brand new decking with beautiful landscaping. Perfect for chilling at the end of the day. The views were beautiful from inside and out. The owner was prompt to answer any questions we had. And….. we had really good fishing.

Awesome location. Modern interiors

Location is perfect, but slightly hard to navigate to. Space was very efficiently organized and clean. WiFi wasn’t great. You have to bring your own linens for bedroom. Need clear instructions for all the remotes and electronics.
