Unique property, former Coast Guard station and handicapped accessible. 120 foot pier to fish, boat and swim. Deep water. Kids should always wear life jackets. Also, a private river rock beach. You can fish fron your wheelchair.

Decor is institutional but functional - includes washer/dryer, refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, garbage disposal, Cuisinart coffee pot with grinder, lobster pot and propane cooker, two Webers and a propane barbeque grill with additional burner. Most furniture is Stickley, please use coasters. 3 Picnic tables and other outdoor furniture.

Large, flat, almost one acre lot that includes lots of paved area for safe biking or playing with chalk. Horse shoe pits, too. Great for kayaking and sunbathing. Whips for keeping your boat off the dock. Also a 40 foot boathouse. Located in the village with water and electric, walking distance to library, church, stores and restaurants in Cape Vincent. 3.5 miles to the lighthouse.

Two doors from the only the only international car/passenger ferry on the St. Lawrence River. Goes to Wolfe Island where you will check in with customs. Be sure you have the paperwork you need. In Marysville, there is an additional free ferry to Kingston, Ontario for many activities, like rock-climbing, street fairs, theatre, restaurants, and Historic Fort Henry.

Also, gorgeous, white sandy beach on Wolfe Island called Big Sandy Bay, just a few miles from Hornes Landing, (check it out on the web) reachable by boat (IF GOING BY BOAT, FIRST CHECK IN AT CUSTOMS AT FERRY DOCK ON WOLFE ISLAND SO YOU WILL BE LEGAL) or, if driving or bicycling, walk from your car after you reach the entrance to the park. No cars or bicycles allowed on this protected beach or dunes. Very secluded amd wonderful swimming.
