About this home

Make lasting summer memories on Downie Island in the Thousand Islands - a place where time slows down and days unfold gently along the St. Lawrence River. This is cottage life at its best: simple, comfortable, and surrounded by natural beauty. Here, expansive views stretch across Eel Bay and all the way to the mainland USA, and one of the islands' rare sand beaches invites barefoot wandering and carefree play. Little ones can splash safely at the shoreline while adults settle into the rhythm of river days - reading on the large deck, sharing meals outdoors, or watching boats drift by. Dinner might be fresh-caught fish on the BBQ - or burgers while everyone talks about "the one that got away". Tie up at the newer 60 ft. X 8 ft. Kehoe floating dock, perfect for swimming, paddling, or heading out for tubing, wakeboarding, or exploring nearby coves and channels. Evenings bring campfires, marshmallows, stories, and stargazing. Cooler months mean cozy woodstove warmth, board games, and quiet time together. The cottage comes furnished, and watercraft are negotiable - just bring your belongings and start making memories.
