Everything was as advertised. It was a beautiful location and a very clean and comfortable cottage. We had a great time and especially enjoyed seeing the large ships traveling the river. There are nice restaurants in the nearby towns of Claton and Saint Vincent.

The host is absolutely wonderful to work with. Friendly and addresses any concerns immediately. The cottage is a nice cozy place and right on the water which we love. The best part is that its pet friendly so we don't have to leave our Daisy home. Close to Alex Bay and Clayton so you can shop and on the river so you can watch ships go by. We always enjoy our stays here.

The cottage was amazing. Great location to fish or swim. The house was nostalgic and allowed for great family time. The view of the lake from outside or inside was phenomenal. My daughter and I made lifetime memories from all the fun we had.

Great place to stay for a long weekend in the Thousand Islands. Great if you have a boat and are looking for great fishing. Owner was very cooperative and communicative with the whole process and stay. Only issue we had is that the AC units are directly above the beds. Would stay again.

Joel, Thank you for your kind words and for taking such good care of our cottage! As for the AC units, unfortunately those were the best locations for them as the other window in each room provides ventilation when the ACs are not in use. In addition, the rooms' dimensions make it impossible to place the beds in different spots. I'm sorry to hear that this caused you an inconvenience.

We just returned from This cottage in Cape Vincent and we loved it! We especially loved the living room and kitchen with all the windows looking out at the lake! We spent time on the deck grilling and relaxing and love fishing off the marina dock. The owners checked in with us which was so nice. We will definitely rent again. Tyyyy so much. Ellen and Gina

We enjoyed our stay in Cape Vincent despite the bad weather and the may flies (not sure that’s what they’re called but man there are a lot this time of year—who knew?) which, of course, had nothing to do with the property. Fun being so close to the water and had everything we needed. The communication was easy and the location is convenient. I would recommend
