You can’t go wrong renting this cottage. It is very quaint, with a kitchen that has just about everything you need to cook with—and then some. (Except for a cookie sheet, which we needed to make pretend pizzas... lol. My wife improvised with layers of aluminum foil.) The air conditioning kept the place very comfortable, the thick, lush towels looked new, and the sofas and beds were very comfortable and supplied with ample pillows. It wasn’t hard to get settled in and start enjoying our relaxation time.Not to mention my favorite part: sitting on the deck, which was only 10 feet from the water. Whether sitting outside or inside on the couch facing the water through the screened sliding doors, the rhythmic sound of the waves splashing against the shore rocks provided immediate stress relief and relaxation.The host, Samantha, answered any questions I had quickly. It was just my wife and me who stayed here, and we were very satisfied. We only wish we had booked a few more days!

The property was such a nice little cozy place. Right on the water, with access, with the sound of the waves every night. The property is a little secluded just with the general area it is in, but there’s a market a little down the road and just about a 20 min drive to Watertown.

Relaxing week away

We loved staying here! The home is beautiful, clean and updated. It is centrally located to many Thousand island towns, which we visited. We loved relaxing on the deck and the rocks for the waves, sunsets, and fishing. There was only one bad part having to leave! A grill, firepit and a raft would be bonuses. Mosquito zappers or citronella candles are much needed.
The sky offered a different surprise every night ❤️🌅

I'm sorry the house smelled like smoke, no one should be smoking in the house. Not sure why it smells like that.
