Electric cord ready for boat recharging. Circa 1935, rustic painted wooden plank floors (may creak), updated bathroom, kitchen, mud room, screened porch.

Also walking distance to two convenience stores with gas, post office, laundromat, three churches, and nature trails. Sorry, no pets due to allergies in host family.

Just Like Home

The Vrbo was just as advertised. It had everything you would need and things you didn’t know you needed. Dee left us a loaf of delicious banana bread. Check in was easy, the bed very comfortable and lots of room with a well stocked kitchen. We will definitely stay here when we visit Ft. Drum again.

Provided more than enough of everything! Hosts kind and communicative. They even provided an extra homemade treat (wow). One tiny flaw in this older building…if you are a large person the commode may be an awkward or tight fit. Would gladly stay there again

The perfect apartment for a fishing getaway, with a host that was very accommodating.

The decor was perfectly fitting and appreciated for a fisherman’s getaway. Our host was very accommodating and left many many pleasantries throughout the apartment (snacks, beverages, dvds, menus, soaps and shampoo’s) - it was all great. The location is convenient for all the fishing you could ask for, plus trails, wineries, and a downtown scene. We would love to stay again!

Comfortable and cozy duplex

The duplex is in a quiet little village close to Alexandria Bay. The home is clean and lovingly decorated with a fishing theme. The beds in the upstairs bedroom are comfortable. The host Dee is very thoughtful since we were welcomed with a very well stocked kitchen and had even banana bread and a fruit bowl provided for us. Dee thought of all amenities a traveler could need, so if you forgot something, Dee has you covered! We felt more like family than guest's staying at "A Simple Roof".

All the comforts of home

The apartment was clean and well furnished. It has all the comforts of home; hair dryer, microwave, k-cup brewer, a desk with paper, games, DVDs, and a medicine cabinet filled with anything you may have forgotten/need. My son loved the snack basket and candy dishes! We would definitely stay here again!

Great Little Stay

It’s labeled as an apartment but it does not feel that way! Spacious downstairs and very large bedroom upstairs was prefect for 3 adults. Heat could be a little tricky to kick on but fishing was wonderful and Denise was nothing less than a wonderful host.

Must Stay

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming lakefront home again, and it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. Nestled right on the edge of the serene lake, the property offered quick and easy access to nature trails and water. The home has a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior was impeccably clean and beautifully decorated, and very cozy. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals. Their attention to detail and thoughtful touches really made a difference, from the welcome basket to the well-stocked pantry. The bedrooms were comfortable and thoughtfully arranged, ensuring that everyone had a restful stay. We especially appreciated the California King Bed! We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat.

Perfect quiet fishing house

This is the second year my family has stayed and I cannot stress enough how amazing Denise is. The house is perfect for a small group (4ish). It’s always very clean and very homey. My father stayed on this past trip with friends and everyone had an excellent week fishing and were very comfortable. Denise is an excellent host! She is very welcoming, accommodating and kind. We will definitely be back!

Close to Alexandria Bay

Dee was great to do business with. The apartment was as described. I would recommend staying here in the quiet sleepy town to being downtown A-Bay. The bed was super comfortable, and we were able to take nice walks in the neighborhood. Ice cream was just minutes away. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook, except of course, the food. We'd come again.

Super impressed with this apartment!

Wow wow wow. So clean. So neat. Dee provides more than I've ever seen in any rental from brochures to games to movies to extra blankets to microwave popcorn to coffee to snacks to ice packs to toothpicks to plenty of bathroom linens. I want to go on but you get my point. It is just as she advertised. I didn't have to do much food prep this trip but the kitchen is beyond fully stocked - dishes, tools, pots/pans, air fryer, coffee maker... I did make a salad to share and had absolutely everything I needed. Communication and check-in were super easy and very good. I'd be hard pressed to find anything at all to complain about. It goes without saying that I'd stay again.

Couldn't have been better!

Four night kayak fishing trip. Indian River Lakes. My brother and another buddy with me. It was the perfect getaway for us. A quarter mile from Butterfield Lake launch! Within 20 minutes of about 15 different lakes. (Many within 10!) we had a Ram pickup, a cartop, and a Subaru pulling a single trailer with a Hobie PA14 on it. Parking was easy, and care free. I hate to use the word "campy," but to me, thats how it felt. That, "sigh of relief, park your truck on the grass, creaky floor welcome," flipped my mind straight into relax mode. Everything Dee said in listing is true. She had snacks and fruit available for us. 2 sets of keys. Place decorated in fishing motif. Little patio set outside became our rigging station. Fire pit that was left unused by my group. Activity all around....four wheelers...trailered boats coming and going...never bothered us. Pub fare and bar 100 yards down the road. (Excellent burger! Perch fry on Friday was good as well!) Ice Cream stand next to that...gas station convenience store next. Walked to all and back easily. Fishing was great! Lakes are gorgeous! I LOVE islands that are just GIANT BOULDERS! Amazing. Just a wonderful stay!

A solid 6 on a scale of 1 to 5

Dee and Bill have thought of everything. Decorated in fun and lively “beach cottage” fishing camp theme, Dee and Bill have made their rental user-friendly beyond your wildest imagination. Compact bathroom fully stocked with blow dryer, shampoos, conditioners, bath washes, soaps, large fluffy washcloths and towels, first aid kit, even sewing kit in medicine cabinet! Setting up and connecting my 17” HP Pavilion laptop Kindle Fire tablet to the WiFi was hassle-free. Dining table, 4 chairs, full-size cabinet w/literature, maps about area attractions. Very comfortable nap-worthy overstuffed chair, matching hassock and sleepable sofa, rollaway bed tucked in closet area. Tons of movie CDs, games for kids, magazines, etc. for a rainy day. Bedroom is large w/kingsize and single bed, luggage rack, closet with plenty of hangers. Window A/C but we only used it a couple of nights as the weather cooled down at night to perfect sleeping temperature. Early morning light sweater or longsleeve shirt cool mellowing to ideal T-shirt temps during the day, no humidity. Neighbors, residents as small-town friendly and eager to help as Dee and Bill are. Well-stocked country store w/ deli & hot/cold sandwiches block and a half walk away, next to yummy ice cream/tacos/pizza setup. Post office block and a half walk, along w/great small-town thrift store, 2 churches within eyesight. Alexandria Bay 7 miles away w/Artesian Shop of local crafts and artwork and eyepopping custom-made hand-painted fishing lures, 1000 Bait Shop quick drive toward Clayton, Antique Boat Museum in Clayton, must-see Tibbitts Point Lighthouse (postcards, unique gift items) past Cape Vincent where St. Lawrence and Lake Ontario meet. We enjoyed sitting on the lawn with early-morning coffee as residents drove by and waved, and again in the afternoon and early evening as we unwound from casual take-our-time sightseeing. Oh, Butter Field Lake is at the end of a short steep drive down past the house (either good exercise or exhausting depending on your physical condition) and is well worth grabbing your binoculars and going down to sit on the boulders for a bit and enjoy the view. If you are an author or an artist, this would be the perfect peaceful rental to inspire your creative muse or try your hand at plein air painting at Butter Field Lake or anywhere along the St. Lawrence River. On a scale of 1 to 5, my husband and I give Dee and Bill a solid 6.
