Morning Star Cottage

Charming cottage nestled in the heart of Clayton Ny, in the Thousand Islands. Voted one of the coolest small towns in North America, the cottage is now open for your vacationing pleasure.

Just one block from the majestic St.Lawrence river and walking distance from the Antique Boat Museum. There are many shops, restaurants and marinas to choose from. By the way, Clayton is located between scenic Cape Vincent and Alexandria Bay.

If you get tired of shopping, the fishing is great as well--, located near French creek and Frink park where you can fish from the wall or bring your boat and use the ramp by the Antique Boat Museum. Why not see a performance at the Clayton Opera House while you're in Clayton.

Darling
Best way to describe this cozy little place. We've stayed before & will book, again, next time we travel to Clayton. In fact, we won't travel to Clayton unless we can stay here. It's completely charming, close to the Boat Museum, an easy walk to the central shopping/eating area, and a long stone's throw to The River. Communication with the landlady is easy & thorough. Parking is a breeze. All photos posted are accurate & true. It's a charmer!

Our favorite VRBO rental to date. One hesitates to say more for fear of sharing a special secret too widely. We've given it all the stars available, but cleanliness, location, communication, and downright adorability are the stand-outs.

Cute cottage - short walk to water and center of town
This cottage felt very cozy and like home. It had everything we needed in terms of toiletries, linens and kitchen items. The bed was amazingly comfortable and the ceiling fan was wonderful! Very nice outdoor space as well. Owner was easy to deal with and very pleasant. Location was close to the water and walking distance to town. No need to drive if staying local and only a short drive to other towns and attractions. It was a great home base for our week in the Thousand Islands region. Thank you Kathy!
