About the host
Hosted by Megan Brewster
I currently live in Rochester, New York in the winter months and spend most of my summers at my cottage just down the hill from this Summer Home.
Why they chose this property
My grandmother purchased this property when my father was just five years old, and every summer since, the Brewster family has gathered here — traveling from across New York State, Boston, and even as far as California — to continue that cherished tradition. Our love for the 1000 Islands runs deep, and we hope you’ll feel the same sense of pride, joy, and care that we’ve poured into our summer home.
While most weeks are still reserved for family gatherings, we’re thrilled to now share The Brewster Cottage for short-term stays. We look forward to welcoming you and helping make your time in the 1000 Islands both memorable and comfortable.
What makes this property unique
This home was designed to comfortably host one large family or two smaller families vacationing together. The split-level layout makes shared travel easy — with king bedrooms, children’s rooms, full baths, and cozy living spaces on each floor, everyone has room to relax. You’ll be amazed at how spacious it feels, even with up to ten guests — plenty of togetherness when you want it, and privacy when you need it.
