Fantastic place! Suggest taking a tour and visiting - so much history! Whether its your own boat or a guided tour, its worth the visit. Visiting the Fall means colder weather but not as crowded.

It is a beautiful excursion to do by boat, Boldt Castle is also very beautiful and very well presented, the boats leave about every half hour, there are audio guides and everything is well documented.

Love this area, there is so much to do: visit the small towns, do a boat ride, camp, just visit for the day. So pretty and unique, and I like the history of rich people of old buying up little islands to build summer homes on.

Cute town to visit but not much there. Most restaurants were closed. beautiful area to stop by briefly. We were on way back from Toronto. There were no tours available when we got there on a sunday afternoon. which was strange that this is considered a tourist town Don't plan an entire weekend here.

The 1000 Islands region is an absolutely gorgeous area of the river. It’s dotted with pretty islands & an eclectic mix of charming little cottages, massive summer homes, Boldt Castle, & more. Enjoy a laidback getaway with scenic cruising, recreation on the water, wineries, etc. Plan ahead for where to stay. There are some resorts, campgrounds, & appealing Airbnbs with river views & access.

Alexandria Bay is a great place. WE love less than three hours away and never went before; we will go again soon. We took a dozen photos on our weekend trip and everyone had water and boats in it.

Our original plans were to go kayaking in the Thousand Islands in the morning and visit Boldt Castle in the afternoon.
The weather report had been promising, but changed suddenly just before we left to rainy, with poor air quality from the Canadian wildfires.
Since we already had hotel reservations in Kingston, Ontario, to be able to get to Gananoque for an 8:30 kayak session on a Monday morning, we started out from Toronto Sunday afternoon for the three hour drive; there is a lot of construction on the roads and we were tied up in Toronto traffic almost three quarters of an hour.
We had not actually made the kayak reservations, so when we got to Kingston and read the weather reports, we decided not to get up at the break of dawn and instead to eat a leisurely breakfast and cross the American border and take the Uncle Sam's two hour tour of the Thousand Islands, which has a stop at Boldt Castle.
One cannot drive to Boldt Castle. It is only accessible by boat.
Uncle Sam's Boat Tours is headquartered in Alexandria Bay, New York.
It costs $12 for the shuttle to Boldt Castle, which leaves every half hour, or just about double that to add on the two hour boat tour. Parking is free in the Uncle Sam's lot.
The Thousand Island tour is very informative and takes you to both the American and Canadian sides of the Thousand Islands.
Still, seeing the Thousand Islands from a guided kayak tour is more exciting.
We hope to come back in better weather.

My husband and I went to Thousand Islands for a fall getaway on October 17th. The area is beautiful and we stayed at the Riveredge Resort, Alexandria Bay, which was also very nice. The room was great and the view overlooking Boldt Castle was wonderful. However, much to our disappointment, in researching the trip and attractions and restaurants, we did not see anything that mentioned that after Columbus Day nearly every attraction and restaurant close for the season. We were so disappointed to learn we were not able to visit Boldt Castel, even though we could see if from our room, because of the closure. The Uncle Sam Boat Tours was still running under a much reduced schedule. We were able to do the 2 hour tour which was very nice and I would recommend. The fact that most of the restaurants in the town of Alexandria Bay were closed was also a disappointment. I think this should be noted so that people realize that going after Columbus Day is not really worth the trip. One person said I should have researched better, however, I explained that I would be standing in front of a restaurant that on their website still stated OPEN but was closed for the season. Just wish the websites were updated with the information of everything being limited after Columbus Day. I would have rated this trip higher except for the limited availability of the attractions.

We spent a Thurs-Sun long weekend. Brought our own boat and spent much of our time on the water. Stayed in Alexandria Bay but went abt. 10 miles in either direction, down to Clayton and up as far as Singer Castle. So much to see and do! If you have a boat, definitely bring it. Even without it, there's shops and restaurants and events. We were just off the summer season so it was less busy (we live neat Lake George, NY and know what "the season" s like!) but still very lively.

Thousand Islands is a beautiful area on the St. Lawrence Seaway. There is so much to see, and the area is very relaxing. One may take a boat tour, charter a boat, or bring their own boat to explore the islands and river. There are so many gorgeous homes on both Canadian and U.S. sides of the seaway. One could spend hours or days out on the river.

Hi - We are thinking of heading to Alexandria Bay. Just myself and my husband and our dog. Do you think that is a nice area to stay? We have never been. Also, are there any breweries close to this area??
Thanks!
Skrivet 3 augusti 2020
I’m not sure about breweries in the area. There might be some farther down near Syracuse or Watertown.
Alex Bay in the Thousand Island area is absolutely stunning. Depending on the time of year it might be crowded before Labor Day. But after, if you’re looking for a hotel I’m sure you’ll be able to find one. But there are plenty of houses for rent, B&Bs etc.
One of my favorite areas in the East!

Is there anywhere we can rent a golf cart or motorized scooter? I want to bring my dad but he can't walk long distances.

How far is abbey road studios from the London airport? where is a good area to stay if I want to visit Abbey road studios along with attractions in London?
Skrivet 19 september 2019
Sorry, I have never been to London. Trip Advisor sent me your question because I recently went to Thousand Islands. Someone goofed.

Hi would you be able to tell me if there are any arrangements to spend a day or two for a family of three (including an elderly person) on of the islands on the USA side? Are there any resorts or places that can be rented? Is it safe and what arrangements are there for tackling any emergencies that may occur?
Skrivet 10 maj 2019
One thing I can say is there were a lot of older retirees there when we went
So .... that may mean there is a good emergency system in place

Is it nice to see in the fall when trees change? Are all the attractions and boat tours still operating.
Skrivet 27 augusti 2018
Upper NY State and Ontario are beautiful in fall due to the variety of trees. Tours are still running into the fall. While I have not seen the islands in fall I have seen the foliage and can predict the sight will be worth the trip and time.

Hi. We are interested in visiting Thousand Islands over Labor Day weekend with our 9 year old daughter and are wondering if its best to rent an RV or a room in a hotel? The experience will be very different depending on what we decide. Do you know if there are nice full service campsites with showers? Also, if you don't have a boat, can you still get around easily? In an RV? Where would you recommend staying? Thanks in advance for your help.
Skrivet 17 augusti 2018
To get around to the different islands, since many are privately owned, most do a boat tour through a tour company like Uncle Sam's so you can see either Boldt Castle, Singer castle and go through Millionaire's Row to go past the expensive privately owned houses on islands. Everything else is on the shore like restaurants, shops, zoo, museums, stock car races, etc. Alexandria bay in the main land is very drivable and has most restaurants and shops that you would want to see. Grassy Point State Park and Keewaydin State Park is in Alexandria Bay (It's a NY State park) and has camp sites available. You would need to call for fees and amenities. When we were there last it was clean, had a kids playground, a very small beach and restrooms/showers available but its been awhile so you should call. It's also nearby to historic Clayton that has an antique boat museum and some more shops/restaurants.

Hi, What would you like to know about this attraction?
Hi,
I'm single and not outdoorsy but I've wanted to visit the islands for a while. Which island do you think is best for someone like me who is more interested in walking around, boat tours, shopping and wave watching? Hotel recommendations appreciated. Thank you!

Alexandria Bay has every kind of accommodation from Plush to cheap. Nice touristy spot, beautiful area.
