SCENIC BOAT CRUISES he most popular way to see the Tislands is aboard a boat cruise! Tours depart throughout the day to cruise visitors past fairytale castles, stately mansions and historic lighthouses. Tour boats zig-zag among the islands while guides entertain with true stories of pirates and bootleggers and point out homes owned by titans of industry and secret societies.

Cruises range from 1 to 5 hours; some include stops at Boldt Castle, Singer Castle and Rock Island Lighthouse.

You can pair your sightseeing cruise with a luncheon or dining excursion or enjoy a twilight tour that includes tastings by local wine and beer producers. Be sure to check for themed-party cruises, fireworks outings and other special tours throughout the season.

Fall is a popular time to cruise because visitors are treated to a “mirrored-effect” of colorful fall foliage from the islands reflecting off the water. Cruising season fluctuates depending on weather but most tour companies start in late April and wrap-up in November. ¡ 800-847-5263 visit1000islands.com 7

BOLDT CASTLE ew York City hotelier George Boldt N(Waldorf-Astoria) built this six-story, 120-room mansion as a gift to his beloved wife Louise at the turn of the century.

Her untimely death left the dream unfulfilled and the castle lay abandoned for nearly a century. The stunning restoration of the castle and other island structures has topped more than $45 million and leaves visitors—many who come back annually to see the progress—in awe.

Visitors can also tour the Boldt Yacht House, home to a collection of antique boats including several owned by the Boldt family. A shuttle boat ferries passengers between Boldt Castle and the Yacht House every 30 minutes.

Visitors can tour the castle and other island structures at their leisure; tours are self-guided and aides are located throughout. The castle is accessible by tour boat and private watercraft and is handicap accessible. Visitors arriving from Canada must provide border- crossing documents. ¡

ibbetts Point TLighthouse stands tall at Cape Vincent the very edge of Lake Ontario NEW YORK where the Great Lakes system funnels into the St. Lawrence River. The lighthouse is an extension of Cape Vincent—the community where lake and river meet—and a place not to be missed by those who want to get an up- close view of this majestic waterway.

Cape Vincent is a historic community that takes great pride in its French heritage. The colorful French Festival is held every year near Bastille Day, the second weekend in July.

Visitors enjoy strolling through the Village Green for concerts, craft fairs, vintage auto shows and farmers markets throughout the spring, summer and fall. “The Cape” is home to a winery as well as a brewery, both serving locally made beverages. Events take place year round including a Sports Weekend in July which includes the Tibbetts Point Run, Cape Street Hoops 3-on- 3 basketball and a cornhole tournament. There are outdoor concerts on Saturdays; the “Take a Stroll on Broadway” in August and Oktoberfest in September. Winter brings a Christmas Parade with Lights and the WinterGreen Volleyball Tournament.

Some of the best freshwater fishing in the islands begins at Cape Vincent on the St. Lawrence River with easy access to Lake Ontario just upriver. The Cape is also a great place for bicycling, kayaking and paddle boarding.

Looking to stay in Cape Vincent? Options range from a historic hotel to longer-term cottage rentals along the shoreline.

Horne’s Ferry, the only international auto passenger ferry crossing the St. Lawrence River to Canada, departs May to October. Take the path less traveled by hailing the ferry to picturesque Wolfe Island before heading to metropolitan Kingston on the Canadian side. ¡

his quintessential river town has Tundergone a revival in recent years to offer new places to stay, dine and play while preserving the small town vacation traditions that has made it a favorite among visitors for more than a century.

Clayton brought in luxury with the 1000 Islands Harbor Hotel, an up-scale Four Diamond Rated AAA hotel perched along the St. Lawrence River. Balance that with the traditional family-run motels and fire- pit and volleyball net cottage colonies along the water and you learn why more and more people are basing their 1000 Islands vacation in Clayton.

The community is harvesting the fruitful products of its inland properties and staking a claim in the craft beverage market with a brewery, two wineries with vineyards and a pair of distilleries.

Clayton’s museums immerse visitors in river culture. The Antique Boat Museum is home to North America’s largest collection of wooden and classic boats, many of which still venture onto the river! The Thousand Islands Museum houses the Muskie Hall of Fame. Some say it’s the local fishing community who came up with the famous Thousand Island Dressing that shares the region’s name.

The Thousand Islands Arts Center showcases handmade textiles and offers exhibits and workshops for seasonal and short-term visitors. Private galleries and the Clayton Opera House bring the arts to Clayton for all to enjoy.

Head downtown and discover small shops focused on river- and cottage-themed apparel, keepsakes and more. Enjoy a quick bite or meticulously planned meal while seated outdoors, often with a stunning river view. Make Clayton your first-stop for diving into the 1000 Islands. ¡
