Why the Owner Chose Clayton
Clayton is a small town with many events that happen throughout the year. I love to go up in the fall and watch the leaves change.

This was sent to us by email..... We had a wonderful weekend at your cottage. The men got to do some fishing and the woman folk spent sometime shopping in Alex Bay and Clayton. We did some hiking on the island, played a little tennis and enjoyed the atmosphere. The place was very peaceful. Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay at your place.

This was from our guestbook....If you are looking for the comforts of home, island life, and adventure, this is for you. The cottage offers you the comfort of home all you have to bring is yourselves. We loved the screen in porch which offers a gorgous view, tables to dine at and a sitting area for you to enjoy a bug free evening. We went hiking on the trails and got to see a fox. We also used the tennis court and checked out the post office where you can learn about the Frontenac Hotel. This will be an experience that we will not forget.

This island house was perfect for 5 couples that shared it. Plenty of room, practical furnishing, and very relaxing. Swimming off the boathouse was good for the swimmers in the group, and particulary enjoyed using the big screened in wrap-around porch. We had two boats to get around in and we would boat to Clayton's free docks and walking across the road for ice cream. We also enjoyed boating over to Alex Bay and dining at the floating dock restaurant that is next to Capt. Tompson's. Of Course Boldt Castle is a must see, but just cruise among the islands is lovely. Round Island has a tennis court on the grounds of what was the Frontenac Hotel. There are boating charts of the area available in the house, so that boaters can stay out of trouble. If you are looking for luxury, quiet life, the water, and a bit of adventure, I think this property fits the bill.
