5 BR Water Front House på 700 Acre Nature Bevare på Private Island
Opdatering i 2019: Vi har hævet vores dock og skabt gangbro over stranden på grund af højt vand i år ved Lake Ontario. Derfor er plænestørrelsen lidt mindre end angivet nedenfor (men vand falder hurtigt fra begyndelsen af juli 2019).
Dette er et velholdt fire soveværelser sommerhus, (en ekstra sten sommerhus huser det femte soveværelse, men har ikke badeværelse) med en laden (med 'game room' på anden, ufærdige, gulv med ping pong, foos ball, vægte) og dock (holder fire både) ved foden af Grenadier Island (ingen bro!), som ligger ved mundingen af St. Lawrence Seaway og er en del af de tusind øer. Alle værelser har en fantastisk udsigt over Lake Ontario og / eller Basin Harbor. Huset ligger på ca. 700 hektar privat bevarelse, på en 1200 hektar stor ø, der er fantastisk til eksklusive naturoplevelser. Du lejer meget mere end bare et hus! Selve huset er på syv hektar græsplæne, med sten brand pit ved kysten. Bemærk venligst at nye i 2019 vil være AC i hele huset med ductless ultra quiet enheder. Vi har også købt en kommerciel insektfogger til at eliminere (eller tæt på det!) nogen myg eller andre insekter omkring huset. Spraying udføres regelmæssigt, når gæster ikke er til stede. Huset har charmen af et gammelt stenhus med de bekvemmeligheder og en ny hjem. Der er et stort soveværelse med egen balkon og ensuite kastet marmorbadeværelse, et soveværelse med en queensize-seng og en anden med et par enkeltsenge og opholdsstue (inklusive udtrækssofa) samt en 4 sengs køjeseng med en loft. Den separate stenhus indeholder en fuld størrelse seng. De to andre badeværelser (alle badeværelser har mindst et brusebad) er forholdsvis nye og fliser i marmor. Det fulde køkken har næsten alle bekvemmeligheder; herunder et køkkenhjælp, ismaskine, opvarmningsskuffe og vaffeljern.
Grenadier Island hedder 'The Kings of Kings' (men også Queens). På øen du kan vandre, svømme (brug af en privat strand i spidsen af øen samt, flad sten strand ved huset), båd, fugl se, mountainbike, fisk, vand ski, rør, og meget mere! (forsynet med udlejning er: kano, 2 kajakker og en padle bord. Der er endda et restaureret 19. århundrede en historie skolehus på ejendom med originale skriveborde. Klik på video knappen i 'Video' sektionen ovenfor for at se aktiviteter på Island og beach (sammenlagt på GoPro af min søn som en del af sin weekend i september (vejret kan stadig være meget flot i september). Bemærk venligst, at cliff hoppe ikke var på øen, men en del af en båd tur ind i de tusinde øer i nærheden. Alle andre billeder er på øen eller stranden på vestsiden. I september / oktober, er der stadig masser at gøre, fra æble plukning (mange æbletræer på ejendommen, vandreture, bon brande ved nyrenoverede brand pit, eller bare læse de to pejse. Hvis du vælger at forlade denne bid af paradis, så kan du gå i land, hvor du kan finde tennis, golf, shopping, film, museer, barer, restauranter, etc., eller gå over til Kingston, Canada, der er omkring 40 minutter væk med båd. (Det er lidt længere, hvis du tager færgen fra Cape Vincent), eller gå til Cape Vincent med 15 minutters bådtur for at besøge en af sine butikker eller restauranter ANVENDELSE AF BØD KRAVET at komme til og fra øen (5 til 10 minutters bådtur). Båd leje muligt med ejeren. Vicevært vil møde dig i marinaen, når du først ankommer og følger dig ud i din båd og viser dig rundt. Alternativt, hvis du ikke vil have stress med at leje og betjene en båd eller ikke planlægge meget båtliv, kan der arrangeres vagter at transportere gæster frem og tilbage. Valgmuligheder: 2 ATV'er ($ 775 / wk plus depositum), 4 pladser Polaris, med 4 person trailer ($ 775 / wk plus depositum) (rabat hvis kombineret) og bådudlejning ($ 950 / wk plus depositum) også muligt.

Some of our family were nervous about being able to go do stuff off the island seeing how it's only boat access. Nobody ended up going anywhere because no one wanted to leave. There is no reason to leave. We fished, we hiked, we played cornhole and bocci. We are a family of people who like to cook and there was nothing that was missing from the kitchen. Both the owner and the caretaker were readily accessible and responsive.

Thank you for the very nice review. You and your family were terrific guests, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime.
I’m glad you mentioned your family’s initial concerns about being on an island. As you discovered, there’s plenty to do—fishing, hiking, swimming, games, and simply relaxing. But the mainland is only about a five minute boat ride away. In fact, I’m on the island now and heading to the mainland later today for a bike ride, and tomorrow I’ll be golfing with friends.

A relaxing getaway
This was our 4th year back to island and as always it was a great week. Lots to do exploring the trails on atv’s, fishing, swimming or going to the beach across the island all while enjoying the awesome scenery all around you. Then at night watching the beautiful sunsets every night with drinks in hand. It doesn’t get better than this.

Another great vacation on the books at Grenadier Island! The house is very comfortable, even for my crew of 10 people! Lots of places to hang out, cook and eat together too! The views from all of the porches are fantastic. Loved the addition of the A/C throughout the house! There is so much to do on the island that we hardly ever left the place! John (the owner) is very accommodating and responds to requests immediately. This is our favorite place to vacation in Cape Vincent. We will definitely be back next year!!!

Amazing island paradise!
Once again my family and I had a fantastic time on the island! The house is super-comfortable with plenty of places to hang out. The views from the deck are spectacular. The island has lots of nooks and crannies to explore, including a white sand beach. The house and garage are stocked with everything you would need (including extra beach chairs - a nice touch), and the recent addition of a commercial icemaker makes island life a lot easier. The owner is great to deal with and George the caretaker makes sure you are always well taken care of. This is our favorite vacation spot by far. Love this place!

Magical island getaway!
Our family travels quite a bit, but this island now occupies a special place in our hearts! John (our host) and George (the property caretaker) both went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and make sure we had everything we needed. The house is both elegant and comfortable, and we felt at home immediately. We woke up to jaw-dropping views in the mornings, then went on day-long adventures all around the island. No one day was the same, and we kept finding new surprises and delights. We built a fire by the lake every evening to watch the stunning sunsets, and then we'd retire to the cozy library to collapse in the comfy chairs and enjoy our books or a movie. We left yesterday and I miss the island already!

Awesome Adventure!
I stayed at Grenadier Island with my family as well as my brother's family. In total, 4 kids, 4 adults and 2 dogs. We had a blast! The views were spectacular, the atmosphere was truly breathtaking. The house was very nice, plenty of bed space and room to operate, and service upon arrival was excellent. We rented the boat as well as a couple ATV's which were a big hit as we explored the Island on a daily/nightly basis and the kids loved it. The fire pit was fun, the beach was nice and found the entire week very relaxing as a family. If you are into Boating, Fishing, ATV's, Sunsets, Sunrises, etc you will LOVE this spot!
We will definitely be back! Thanks to John (owner) for everything.

Island Paradise
My family had an amazing time on Grenadier Island. If you are looking for a place to escape and enjoy nature (with all the modern conveniences) then this is the place for you. There is plenty to explore on the island and the natural beauty of the place is unparalleled. Wild life is plentiful - we saw deer, foxes, mink, cranes, herons, geese, snakes, frogs, osprey, eagles, and numerous other types of birds. The house is incredibly comfortable and has everything you need during your stay. Our family only left the island once during our stay for provisions. The owner John and his caretaker George are incredibly helpful and made sure we had everything that we needed. You can tell that this isn't a normal vacation rental -- it is a family home that clearly John and his family cherish. We will definitely be back next year.

Fantastic spot, great owner
We stayed over the week of July 4th. 3 couples with adult kids. If you like the water, water sports, relaxing, nature and unbelievable scenery....this is an amazing place. The island is a short boat ride away and offers up a fantastic view in all directions. We took advantage of the kayaks, canoes, firepit by the lake, cornhole on the sprawling lawn, tubing, fishing, sunsets, ping pong, hikes, drinks on the deck, cruising on the lake and generally having a great time. John, the owner, is fantastic...great communication & information, responsive, etc...Although we spent most of our time outside, the house was spacious, the rooms comfortable and generally speaking, it had more amenities than we expected. The caretaker George is also super knowledgeable, thorough and accomodating. We'll be back!

Paradise and Privacy!
What an amazing place! My family of 7 adults and 2 kids had a blast. The house is super comfortable and very spacious. There's plenty of space for everyone to hang-out. The views from the house and all around the island are breathtaking - from the sunrise to the spectacular sunsets..... ship watching, wildlife and the acres and acres of wilderness.... this place is a photographer's dream. We rented the UTV to explore the island (highly recommend this if you have more than 4 people) and made several trips to the white sand beach on the back of the island. This place looks like the Caribbean and is basically like having your own private beach. There is so much to do on the island; swimming, hiking, bird-watching, hanging out on the beach, fishing or just spending time on the huge porches enjoying the sunsets. John (the owner) and George the caretaker were great to deal with and very helpful in making sure all of our needs were met. We will definitely be renting here again.... true Paradise in Cape Vincent!

My family of 6 (kids ages - 15, 13, 7 & 7) and our 2 labs had the most wonderful time at John's place. We spent all of our time outdoors - jumping from the boat, to the paddle boards, to the ATV's/Polaris. The scenery was gorgeous and having the island to explore everyday was so much fun. Long walks, catching frogs, turtles, and fish and than water front fire pits nightly made for an amazing get away from it all! Thank you John! And thank you to George for all your assistance!

Amazing island retreat!
This was our first time using VRBO and visiting 1000 islands. John, the owner, and his caretakers, George and RJ, were trustworthy, honest and extremely accommodating! They were very easy to get ahold of and responded to emails, calls and texts very quickly...
They made us feel very comfortable through the entire process and everything was perfect, just as the ad stated.
The house was very clean and everything worked perfectly. The island was amazing for exploring and/or hunting and the house location is perfectly situated! We saw sunrises and sunsets from both the patio and living room! You can't ask for a better location! Wish I could post pics because they were amazing. I'll send them to John so he can post in the ad if he chooses because it was breathtaking.
We didn't see a single person as we explored the island, so if you love solitude, this place is perfect for you.
We took full advantage of the amenities that the house and property had to offer and it made our vacation even better than we expected.
I highly recommend this property and owner, and I doubt you'll find better service, cleanliness, accommodations and especially location!
We will be back again...
John thanks for everything!

What a Find!!!!!!!!
We have stayed at many vacation rentals and this rental is the best!! Our family has nicknamed this rental "Surf and Turf" because there is just as much fun to be had on land as there is on the water. We had three generations with us and had so much fun together ...BOATING...ATVS ....BONFIRES.....FISHING....BEACH DAYS...LOOKING FOR FOSSILS ON THE COAST...BIRD WATCHING.....AND JUST RELAXING . The home is VERY PRIVATE, beautiful and had every ammenity we could ask for. We are all cooks and enjoyed making family meals in the well stocked kitchen. The porches provided hours of entertainment having coffee or cocktails while birdwatching or watching the sunset. We had teenagers and preschoolers and everyone was outside and entertained. The owner (John) is great! He had Bill (the caretaker) meet us upon arrival at Martin's Marina and follow him to the rental to show us around and answer any questions we had. We would like to thank John for sharing this gem of a property with our family. We can't wait to return next year :-)

Never bored
Hi John,
I can't even begin to describe how much we enjoyed your house and the island. It was perfect for us in so many ways. The boat and ATVs were such a huge hit and enabled us to enjoy the island on many different levels. My sister's children, ages 4 and 6, were free to enjoy the surroundings without the fear of cars or other hazards. My boys, ages 11 to 23, had an absolute blast. Not once did we hear the typical, "we're bored" routine from any of the kids! The adults truly appreciated the opportunity to unplug. It is such a special place, I think we all agreed we'd like to return same time next year.
Again, just an incredible place. Thanks for making it available to us, as well as your attention to detail. It has been clear to me that you want your guests to enjoy their stay on the island. We typically rent vacation homes twice a year and I must say that this experience, both the rental itself and your ability to make your home feel so welcoming to guests, exceeded all of our collective expectations and experiences. By the way, I loved reading the newspaper article in the downstairs bathroom about your 6 hour event on the ice, as well as your son's detail of the fall journey to the island in 8ft swells! Sounds like a lot of memories have been made on Grenadier.
Take care,
Meg

The owner is extremely reasonable and fair! We had internet, TV, unlimited use of nearly any appliance you could imagine, a fully useable kitchen and information galore. The owner truly feels that whoever stays there should feel comfortable. We brought our own boat and Jet Ski which I would recommend if not renting one. One day we took our 30' boat to Kingston Canada -- just a one hour ride across the channel. We also rented the owner's ATVs to explore the 1000 acres of untouched property.
The home is far away from any neighbors so it assures the renter of quiet privacy. This place is a "re-do" annually for us going forward! It is a short 2.5 hr drive from Rochester. The VRBO description by the owner is understated..... Our entire family recommends this home without any reservation whatsoever! Truly, by far, one of the nicest vacations we have taken as a large family ever -- and THE nicest rental we have ever made thru VRBO.

Thanks Cheri. Of course it really helps to have great renters. Island life is not for everyone, but am really glad you enjoyed the island and its history. Thanks also for fixing our purple martin bird house: I had been meaning to do that, and hopefully they take residence next Spring! john

Great Weekend
We had a wonderful time last week in a fabulous home. So nice and peaceful up there. I could spend all day just sitting on the deck. The sunsets - wow! and going back memorial day weekend!

Om værten
Vært: John Uhlein
My wife and I have four children (ages 32-38), and 6 grandchildren, and currently just one yellow lab We all love the thrill of a new adventure, and this island really helps bring the whole family together. We all become kids again. My kids brought their kids out when they were just a few weeks old.
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
My family is originally from the area, and the Island has been in the family for over seventy years . My four kids and their families still love the island; so much that they have cross country skied across the lake to get out there in the dead of winter. There is so much that you can do out there, you will never have enough time to fit it all in... I am still trying.
Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt
I have just taken up mountain biking on the island, so if you don't want to rent the ATVs, bring your bikes....or just walk/hike. There is a LOT of history to the island which you can read about in The Bedford Journal(written in late 1800s) left in the house, or in the newly restored School House, mid island. Many renters tell me they stayed up late at night reading about life on the island in the 1800s. Half of our rentals are repeat renters.
