Beautiful waterfront view with great outdoor space. All basics provided - beds comfortable - host provided great communication. House was clean, tidy, roomy but definitely old with dated bathrooms. Would return & recommend but the cost is very overpriced for the accommodations.

Family memorial gathering

The location was perfect for our needs - weather cooperated so we enjoyed an afternoon on the deck. House provided nearly everything we could need with plenty of extra paper product back up as well. This was a “necessary” stay - not getaway or vacation - otherwise I would NEVER have paid the price to reserve here. The quoted daily price was HALF the total costs once all fees were added. COMPLETELY overpriced considering the age of the home & the lack of “luxury” amenities. Would not book again unless priced accordingly.

Large bedrooms, small bathrooms. Several step ups and down, not perfect for a toddler. Had a musty smell, had to purchase glade plug ins. Needs a couple of non stick fry pans. Would suggest having the property sprayed for spiders and deep cleaning under sink and cabinets where mouse traps are.

We had the best time. The house is clean and right on the water. We enjoyed a daytrip to Boldt castle and another jaunt to sachets harbor. FYI - this house is not great for mobility challenges or overly tall folks. The online pictures don’t totally show how low the ceilings are. My friend is 6ft 8- and was routinely hitting his head on moldings and lower thresholds. The floors have many different levels so you will be stepping up and down as you go. No reason to worry if you’re under 6 feet. Thanks for letting us stay!!

Charming little home with pretty decor. Lovely home right on the water. Walking distance to some local places. Winery is 1/2 mile down the road. Host is very responsive to texts and calls. We would recommend this rental. We would gladly use it again.

Get-away on the Bay

We enjoyed the back deck immensely - lots of room and beautiful peaceful views. The house had most everything we needed but is unique in layout. There is an ensuite downstairs, with the other three bedrooms up a narrow stairway that may be difficult for some to navigate (it was interesting to get the luggage up). Location is nice – just outside a small town, within easy reach of lots of sites and adventures. All in all, we enjoyed our stay, and would stay there again.

Perfect for a large family!

Cottage was fully stocked.The house was big enough for a large family. Several games to keep the family busy on a rainy day. The host was great with communication. There was an issue with one of the showers and the host communicated immediately before we arrived to try and fix the issue. He did have to come back to work on the shower but was very polite to ensure he was not bothering us during our stay. The issue was resolved. Beds were comfortable. Are family had a good time. Close restaurants, ice cream stand. Great location to the Thousand Islands.

Ice Fishing Trip 2025

We were excited to ice fish the famed Chaumont Bay for trophy walleye. Unfortunately the fishing didn't go as planned. The house was great, very clean and comfortable for our group. There was a minor issue with the boiler that the manager solved very quickly. I would definitely stay here again if the fishing was better. If you are headed there to ice fish, you should be aware that access to the water from the cottage is via a set of narrow stairs, and getting a shanty to the back yard is probably not possible. A jet sled fits, but you will struggle with anything wider. The kids did some fishing out in front of the cottage by carrying their equipment down, but for our trips onto the main Chaumont Bay we drove over to the state launch and left from there. Parking at the cottage is tight, with just enough room for 4 vehicles. The snow banks wouldn't allow for on-street parking of any additional vehicles.

Nice place

We enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and comfortable. We stayed in the downstairs bedroom so I can’t speak to the upstairs rooms but the downstairs bedroom has a super comfortable bed, super soft sheets, and a great AC unit! So we were cool and comfy. As others have mentioned the house is older but the owners have definitely done a number of upgrades. Indeed the ceilings are low and there are steps up and down throughout. I would call the house ‘quirky’ — in a good way. I enjoyed trying to envision what the original structure looked like and how it has evolved. It was a great location for our stay in Thousand Islands.
