"Our family loved this house and the location right on the St. Lawrence River. We enjoyed swimming and fishing. We visited nearby Clayton for great restaurants that our host recommended which were all excellent. We rented Kayaks one day; we took a boat tour to Boldt Castle, we walked around Alexandria Bay.The property was spacious outside and has a wonderful deck with the view of the river which we enjoyed in the evening; one night we made Smores at the firepit.The kitchen was well stocked with glassware and cookware; we did cook at the house a few nights, and used the grill as well.I would love to return someday!"

Private 4-Acre Retreat • Sleeps 13 • Fire Pit • Playground, 5 min to State Park

10/10 Excellent

"This is an absolutely beautiful place to stay on Wellesley Island, NY. Tanya is a wonderful host - very responsive. We stayed 2 nights (Husband, wife & 18 y/o son). We really enjoyed the snack basket the host left for us - a very nice and thoughtful touch! The kitchen is well-stocked with everything you need to cook meals. We actually used the outside grill on the amazing outdoor deck to cook burgers one night. Although we don't drink coffee or tea, there is a very well-stocked area for guests to enjoy. We liked the ability to do a load of laundry the first night too. It is very tastefully decorated, warm and cozy. Everything was very neat and clean. Beds and pillows are super comfy. I forgot q-tips and makeup remover which the host had those and other items readily available for guests to use. We enjoyed several games of cornhole one night. There are lots of amenities there to make this house very family friendly. Unfortunately, we were not there long enough to spend much time outside so we didn't get to sit around the firepit or enjoy sitting out on the deck. Everything about this house is very well thought out for guests. If we ever return to this area, we would definitely stay here again!"
