Relaxing week away
We loved staying here! The home is beautiful, clean and updated. It is centrally located to many Thousand island towns, which we visited. We loved relaxing on the deck and the rocks for the waves, sunsets, and fishing. There was only one bad part having to leave! A grill, firepit and a raft would be bonuses. Mosquito zappers or citronella candles are much needed.

Beautiful and relaxing!
What a great place! Beautiful property - great view- so relaxing! The property is exactly as described and shown in the pictures! It is super clean and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. We had busy days traveling to the other small towns in the area but loved coming back to the house to relax on the deck overlooking the water. The host Samantha is very responsive although we really didn't need anything from her. Check in was easy and convenient. If you are traveling to this area, you should consider renting this home!
