See the breathtaking Thousand Islands in upstate New York. Stay right on Millionaire's Row on the St. Lawrence River Seaway in the renovated Chalet on Wellesley Island. The Chalet was built by George Boldt, in 1895, as a guest house for his distinguished guests. Watch sea-faring and lake-going freighters glide right by your window all day and night. Islands dot the river, and your view is filled with historic homes with manicured lawns and colorful flowers. Walk to the Boldt Castle boathouse for a tour. Within minutes driving distance, take the Uncle Sam boat tour to see Boldt Castle, Singer Castle and Canada. See Thousand Islands Park, a community filled with old-fashioned charm including original merchant buildings from the mid-1800’s, Victorian-style homes and make a reservation for a memorable dinner at the four-star Wellesley Hotel. Visit the Antique Boat Museum in Clayton, the War of 1812 Museum in Alexandria Bay and enjoy good prices on shopping in area towns. Crystal clear waters make for the best fishing around. Watch the fish swim right before your eyes as you relax on the dock. Bring your passports for the short drive into Canada for more shopping, sightseeing and entertainment.

Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Wellesley Island
We chose the Thousand Islands, NY for our summer home because there is a lot of activity with tour boats and freighters gliding by right outside your window. Kids and adults can swim and fish off the dock. The summer nights are mostly cool, great for sleeping!
The Unique Benefits of this Condo
The chalet has six other unit owners and we have a lot of fun together.
