Quick stay on the river
We had a 2 night stay at this property. The riverside deck is amazing. Overall it met our needs, but any longer would have been hard. First concern: Laundry. For 400 a night, there really should be an electric washer and electric dryer at this property. I say electric since the dryer listed on the comp is literally a wooden folding clothing rack in front of a heating vent- 😳😳 Second concern: The master bed is not level. This makes sleeping hard Third concern: Lighting is needed for the stairs leading down to the deck This is a nice house with a great view that you should visit if you do not need a long stay.

Beautiful Memories Made
We had an amazing time staying at this home. It is situated in a private setting and has picturesque views. It was beautiful. It is located close to stores and sight seeing opportunities. We loved having our morning coffee on the gorgeous and spacious deck and watching the large ships go by. We had extended family in town with us from The Netherlands and we made wonderful memories here. We highly recommend this home to anyone. It was great.

1,000 Island Oasis
Tucked away on a private road the property offered everything listed and more. Clean and comfortable for our family of ten over the stay. The weather was unfortunately awful which prevented much use of the outdoor deck and fishing but we were able to cook out and enjoy the ample space inside as well as make quick trips for dinner and breakfast in Clayton and Alex Bay given their close proximity to the house. Only 1 issue was experienced during the stay which was the a/c unit not working in the master bedroom which I reached out to the property manager and they said they would have it looked at. Besides that we can’t wait to return to enjoy this property next year when hopefully Mother Nature cooperates better. Thanks from our entire family for a wonderful week together!

Great long weekend stay!
My friends and I had a great time visiting the cottage. The house has beautiful views and is only a few steps away from a dock that is perfect for lounging and enjoying the sunshine. We experienced two minor issues: both showers filled up with pools of water when in use and we did not realize that only 2/5 bedrooms were air conditioned, leaving many of us quite warm at night.

Dissatisfied
The temperature was in the 90’s with high, unhealthy humidity. Only one working portable Air conditioner leaving us sweltering and difficult to sleep. One towel per person with no dish towels or bathroom hand towels and no washer/dryer was highly inconvenient. NO shades on windows was hard to sleep past day break. Would have been a nice view but too many trees blocked. Open staircase was scary and I find it hard to believe it is up to code. No wifi topped off the inconveniences.

Girls Trip
We had a great time. The property was well equipped. There were 7 of us & we had plenty of room. The bedrooms were very comfortable. There weren't closets in all the bedrooms but there were hooks . The one downside was the entrance to the property. It was 2 long sets of stone steps with no railing. It was quite difficult to get up and down the steps.
