We love it here. My family had a cottage on the island. So bringing my kids up to the River and sharing my summer experiences with them is awesome. They love swimming, fishing, gocart driving, and boating. We have relatives in the area to visit and catchup with. Not one rainy day this visit even though we need it. Thanks for everything! See you next year!

We will definitely be back!

We had an absolutely lovely stay. Everything exceeded our expectations. We had three generations staying together and we were all very comfortable with lots of beds to choose from. The house is close to everything, clean, well stocked and the location in the trees is beautiful. Can't say enough about the house and we will most definitely be back!

Great location and wonderful host!

We recently stayed at Sliver of the River for a few days while family was in town. Susan and Coleen have thought of everything! There were tons of sleeping options for the kids, lots of towels for swimming, and the grill was in amazing condition. We loved being able to walk or bike into town but feel somewhat removed from the crowds and enjoy the peace and quiet. We would absolutely stay here again!

Vacation

This cottage covered it all. Very comfortable, very clean, plenty of fans in the house, good kitchen. Loved the location. It is not on the main Street . The screen porch, where we spent a lot of time, was perfect. If needed, numbers available to communicate.

Great location, but a few issues

Loved staying in T.I. Park. Love the idea of the porch, but it was too cold to enjoy. A few issues with the rental: 1) Host changed booking from 7 nights to 4 nights just three weeks before travel; 2) Porch roof leaked, soaking our open suitcase (near washer); 3) Photo shows two SETS of bunk beds (4 beds), but there was only one set; 4) Since there weren't enough beds, my 10yo child slept on couch, and woke up with bed bug or flea bites all over her arms, face, torso. Still itching a week later from that one night. 5) Amenities list hot tub, though there is not one 6) Parking is in front of house, but there's no access to the front door and no walkway to the back. Prepare for wet muddy shoes if it's raining. The bathroom decor is very cute and we appreciated the water bottles in the fridge. We enjoyed playing games together and visiting nearby attractions. The listing and house do need some updates though.

Our family of 4 truly enjoyed our stay at this cottage and all thoughtful touches the hosts added to make it comfortable and welcoming! The cottage location is very peaceful, the wrap-around porch provides plenty of extra space, and during our week the AC units were truly a blessing on hot nights. The kitchen was well stocked so we could cook meals and we had everything we needed. We would absolutely stay here again for future vacations to Thousand Island Park!

Amazing

This cottage was perfect for us. It was very roomy and we loved the porch. My kids love being in TIP and this cottage made it possible. The owners were very accommodating and always quick with their communication back. It was a great overall experience! We highly recommend :)

Beautiful Cottage

This cottage is lovely! It is set back a tiny bit from the majority of the houses so that you feel like you are surrounded by nature yet you are in walking distance to all of TIP. The pictures make it appear a bit run down but inside the cottage has been renovated and has a massive screened in porch, great kitchen and bathroom. It was very clean and the owners are wonderful to work with. We all enjoyed our stay and highly recommended this cottage if you are visiting Thousand Island Park.
