The Island Boat House is on a private 2 acre island in the 1000 Islands near Fisher's Landing, NY. You may bring or rent a boat, or we can provide rides in our boat for arrival and departure.
This rustic & charming two br living space has a double & queen bed in the main room with a double bed in a separate room. An historic boathouse over the water, guests enjoy a private deck, with shower, dock & grill downstairs. Enjoy the majesty of the St. Lawrence River - fishing, swimming and sunsets!!

The space
The Island Boat House is just that, the upstairs of a dry boathouse, consisting of two upstairs private rooms connected to a large deck above the boathouse. The windows look out on one of the most beautiful places in the world -the Thousand Islands in the middle of the majestic St. Lawrence River. We face the main St Lawrence Seaway shipping channel with 750 foot ships passing frequently. The boathouse has plenty of deep water dock space. The trip to the mainland is very short, even manageable by canoe or kayak in good weather. The boathouse has a small kitchen upstairs with a sink, a coffee maker, toaster oven, microwave oven and small fridge. Fresh drinking water is also provided. Also, upstairs is your private 2023 composting toilet. Downstairs is an enclosed private walk-in shower, full size refrigerator with freezer and a gas grill. The upstairs deck is large enough for meals and relaxing. This is glamping at its very best. All your towels for showering are provided as are all linens ...do bring your beach towels for swimming.

Guest access
Guests have access to the Boat House apartment, docks & deck. The rest of the two acre private island is shared with the family hosts living in the main house.
