About this property

Grindstone Island Getaway-My Reverie, Private, Waterfront, 1000 Islands

Imagine waking up to breathtaking views of the blue waters of Picnic Point and Eel Bay, the tranquility of a secluded island enveloping you. My Reverie, a charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath cottage nestled on the peaceful leeward side of Grindstone Island, offers a unique opportunity – approximatley12 families a year get to experience this private paradise. This is the truest island living experience you can have!

Accessible only by boat, My Reverie allows you to escape the everyday. Relax on the private two teired deck with plenty of seating with a high/low water dock, with deep watres that can accommodate boats up to 30 feet. Enjoy sunbathing, jumping right off the dock into cool waters or simply soaking in the beauty of the Thousand Islands.

Inside the meticulously maintained cottage, you'll find 3 season comfort with brand-new mini-split AC/heating units. Relax with Wi-Fi, a fully stocked kitchen with a dishwasher, a washer/dryer, smart TVs, and plenty of space to unwind. We welcome well-behaved children and pets for a memorable family getaway. Explore the island's walking trails, enjoy the provided water toys, or take a leisurely 45-minute walk to the nearby Grindstone Winery.

We are happy to recommend boat rentals, liveries, and the best access points for launching your boat. Guests are solely responsible for transportation to and from the island.

Please note: This is not a fishing camp. We prioritize a peaceful and respectful environment for our guests and our property. During peak season (mid-June to early September) My Reverie is available for weekly rentals, Sunday to Sunday only.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Hi! My name is Brooke, my husband Phill and I bought My Reverie in 2022 after vacationing at it for several years and we are so very happy to share our Oasis with you! I am a Realtor and Broker just south of the Poconos and Phill works at our local high school. We are responsive and pride ourselves in our prompt, honest communication.

Why they chose this property

It's EVERYTHING we were looking for when we decided to buy in the 1000 Islands! It's private, and easily accessible, with a deep water dock that you can jump off of! It's close to everything while being just removed enough from the vacationing visitors! Being on a leeward side of an island protects us from heavy winds, our bay is calm, and you can see Picinic Point off in the distance.

What makes this property unique

Staying on an island, in a private location is the MOST authentic 1000's Island experience a person can have!
