About this cottage rental

Luxury Waterfront Retreat in the Heart of the Thousand Islands

Welcome to a private waterfront escape in the heart of the Thousand Islands. Situated on a beautiful island accessible by bridge, this peaceful setting offers sweeping river views, stunning sunset skies, excellent boating access, and world-renowned fishing, creating a truly special Thousand Islands experience.

This thoughtfully renovated cottage blends modern comfort with original charm and offers three private bedrooms and accommodations for up to six guests, making it perfect for families, couples, or small groups looking to experience the magic of the Thousand Islands.

The Property:

The cottage sits privately in a quiet bay near the International Rift and enjoys long south and west facing river views, incredible sunsets, and unspoiled scenery. The bay and surrounding channels are known for excellent bass fishing and the calm water also makes it an ideal place to kayak or try your balance on a stand-up paddleboard.

One of the most special aspects of the property is the natural setting:

In front is protected state parkland
In back is federal parkland
Across the water lies the United States shoreline

This rare combination creates remarkable privacy and uninterrupted views — something increasingly hard to find in the region.

You’ll also notice the unique boat traffic of the International Rift just a little off in the distance, where fishermen and families travel through the islands. These waters are famous among anglers for exceptional bass, pike and muskie fishing.

The Living Space:

The cottage has been carefully renovated while preserving its original character, with a bright open-concept layout designed around the multiple water views.

The main living space offers:

Large windows with two beautiful river views
A comfortable seating area
A propane fireplace
A smart, Frame TV
Shuffleboard Table

Whether you’re watching boats pass by, enjoying the fireplace, or gathering with friends, this space is designed for relaxing and spending time together.
