Jul 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful family vacation on the River We reserved this location for our annual family reunion. Our group was 12 people and we had no issues. The house was clean, very well maintained and the layout was great for our group. Plenty of bathrooms, which was important for our group. The house was solid. Our room was on the basement level and we did not hear any footsteps overhead. We were there for the hottest week of the summer, so far, and the climate control handled it just fine. The appliances were modern. The grounds were peaceful and we even caught largemouth bass off the dock! The available kayaks were enjoyed by the younger members of our group, but waters were weedy and no one was tempted to go swimming. Close enough to town, but not a short walk. It was adjacent to a marina, but that posed no problems or issues. The owner was quick to respond to any inquiries we had and easy to deal with. Bottom line: would definitely consider returning here again in the future.

My 8 family members and I enjoyed this beautiful home. Kitchen was stocked. Home was very clean and owners always available. ##### Jammie S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael M.

The home had everything we need for my family to enjoy our week away. An A plus property. ##### Michael M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean M. Aug 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Vacation and Great Experience This property is not your typical "cottage", but a beautiful house. This home was everything that was advertised and more. This was the first time that I had rented a home for a family vacation, and I was extremely pleased with the entire experience. The home was very comfortable, and there was plenty of space for the 8 of us. It could easily accommodate 12 as advertised. The back deck was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy morning coffee and a glass of wine later in the day. The property manager/caretaker and owner were very easy to deal with. The property owner even called me to check in and make sure that everything was good. You can tell that the owner takes great pride in his property. I would certainly rent this property again and certainly recommend this house to others. 5Stars!!! ##### Jean M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt C. Aug 12, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing property and location! Secluded enough for quiet but close enough for a walk into Alex Bay. The overall experience was perfect. Couldn’t have gone better. Kayaks on site for use as well with all the necessary amenities to make you feel like you are at home, if not even an improved home! A++ ##### Matt C. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful! I can't say enough about Carnegie Bay Cottage. The home was beautiful, clean, and very well appointed. Perfect location and close to everywhere you want to go. Pride of ownership shows in this home. Melody was a dream; so helpful in every possible way - from suggestions on where to eat, what to see, and where the best swimming spots are. We would definitely stay again! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stewart S.

The kitchen is incredibly well equipped with all manner of pots, pans, coffee makers, containers, and gadgets. The back lawn has plenty of room for games. The location is a narrow bay off the river which allows for easy docking of a boat. The owner was eager to make our week-long stay pleasant and enjoyable. ##### Stewart S.

The kitchen was great to cook in and had everything you could need. The owner Paul is very hospitable and the caretaker Melody is very helpful too. The location is convenient for anything you want to do. We had a great stay and we're already planning our trip back! ##### Allison T. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy H.

Excellent communication and hospitality from the owner! ##### Kathy H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick S. Sep 2, 2018 #### Wonderful accomodations and attention to detail! We had seven people staying for four nights (four adults, three children) and the house was great. Every time someone thought we had forgotten something we found it already at the house (coffee filters, BBQ equipment, sandwich griller...). This house is easily accessible to downtown (less than two mile walk), nice bay area for kayaking, fishing off the dock, it is just a nice place all around. Beatiful deck for coffee in the morning, unwinding in the evening. Paul and the caretaker, Melody, were great as well. The house alarm went off the last night we were there and Paul called immediately to make sure everything was OK (which it was, it must have been a glitch in the system). Completely recommend this house if you are looking for a place in or around Alexandria Bay. ##### Patrick S.
