Cape Vincent, New York
Tall Timbers is one of a kind! Owners design. Enjoy a Timber frame stay with grand trees built into a very warm, comfortable, yet elegant and rustic home. Many features have a story. Such as the mantel was pulled out of the waters of Lake Ontario and the Newell Posts came from a Cedar Tree cut by a friend in Redwood then customized to adorn our staircase. Tall Timbers was built with over 900 hours of labor by a gentleman named Ken. We are so grateful to him for helping our dreams turn to reality along with a few others, but especially my Dad who has multiple talents. My Mom helped with many aspects from painting to watching the children, so we could work. We raised our children here and now are looking to welcome others to enjoy this amazing home and make great memories as we have. All the amenities that couples or families can enjoy you will find here. Even your dog has what we call the Daj Mahal, which is a very large kennel with 2 dog houses on a raised deck, brick pavers and fresh water available. Locking Gate for peace of mind while you are out adventuring. We do have a Ring Cameral at the front door. This allows us to greet our guests and makes us instantly available at check in.
Main Floor:
Large Laundry Room has upright front loading w/d and this is also where your dog will sleep during your stay. Just outside this door is a wrap around deck where you will find the Hot Tub and Seasonal Shower along with our Glamorous outdoor bathroom (look up to appreciate the crystal chandelier) for convenience when you are enjoying the Timber Pub by the fire (also smoking area). The Timber Pub is a Custom Bar with 2 light fans, a chandelier, a retro RED sink, and a hammock area! Also great area to BBQ, while playing some corn hole!
Back to the house: Step up to the fully equipped kitchen which has all stainless appliances along with a wine fridge and an 8' cutting board. The kitchen is a cooks dream. If it's lacking anything - lmk! It is open view to the great room, which has an oversized cozy window seat, big enough for 2 to lay down. From this space you can oversee your fur family in the Daj Mahal kennel or enjoy the birds. A soapstone gas fireplace also warms this space for fall guests. It's a grand feel in this room as the ceiling peak reaches 30'. We often just lay on the floor and look up at the cool joineries. There are double doors to the deck for outdoor dining. Under the arch you'll find the large dining space for 8, a fully equipped hutch for place settings and a buffet. Just through the pocket door you'll find the TV Room with a 60", 2 reclining chairs and a reclining double leather love seat. Behind the partial wall there is a Trundle bed for a midday nap, children or elderly who doesn't want to climb stairs.. This room has a small library for all ages and many games and puzzles.
2nd Floor:
Upstairs the bathroom has a tile shower and double sink it is located between 2 Bedrooms. To the right is the "Silver Hemlock Room" accommodating a queen bed and 2 smart lamps where you can plug in and a tv. This room is open to a loft above. To the left is the "Yellow Pine Room" accommodating a queen bed adorned with an alternative down that is so inviting and cozy you won't want to get up. It also has a tv and mirrored closet doors. Just over the bridge (here you can view the festivities below in the great room on one side and the main entry on the other) is the North Oak Suite. This room has a luxurious comfortable King that raises for reading or watching TV. You can plug your phones into the smart lamps and put oil in your spa diffuser to set the mood for romance under the large magnolia tree that is a lifesize print at the head of the bed. The ensuite bathroom has a shower, double sinks and a clawfoot tub.
Tall Timber Lodge is a great home base to explore the 1000 Islands. Well situated between Clayton and Cape Vincent, many attractions and wonderful parks are close by - including easy trips to Canada. The Lodge is unique structurally and visually pleasing. It is well appointed and clean. Beds are comfortable and linens and towels are high quality. Lots of homey touches. The backyard is a gem with a hot tub, pub, fire pit and outdoor bathroom and shower. Perfect for starry evenings capping off busy days. Becky is a great host - responsive and helpful and very nice. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would return to the Lodge when in this area again.
perfect place for large family. plenty of room to park boats also!
Stay was ok, felt like we were being watched all the time which made all of us uneasy, and to pay a cleaning fee then have to throw towels in laundry and strip beds did not make us happy But the home was nice enough a bit dusty I would not stay again
Tall Timbers Lodge was the perfect place for our family vacation. There is plenty of room for everyone to spread out and the open floor plan of the kitchen/living room area was perfect for family time. There is plenty to do while staying on the property, you can use the hot tub, play outdoor games or indoor games. Tall Timber Lodge is centrally located and a short drive to everything. We will definitely be back!
We really enjoyed our stay at Tall Timbers and the Thousand Islands region. The house was as advertised and clearly made us feel like home during our two week stay. We plan to be back again soon.
Stunning lodge with all the amenities to make a family get together memorable!
Check in process was simple. Well maintained property, kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook inside and the outside had a terrific grill. Outdoor area was beautiful, we enjoyed the spa, basketball net, ladder ball, corn hole, the tiki bar and fire pit. All the amenities were exactly as discribed, beds were comfortable and entire house was clean. Becky and Mark were prompt responding to our questions. The dog kennel was also a nice perk!! The Thousand Island area has a lot to offer. Don't pass on this place!
Came for a family reunion in Mud Bay. Tall Timbers was a great place to stay. Will definitely be back! Only disappointment was that the fitness center is no longer available. As we have a boxer in training with us- the availability of the advertised gym played into our choice of accommodations. Also had to ask for the DVD player and x box as they were not in the house. Becky and Mark were very quick to respond tho.
The Tall Timbers Lodge is beautiful. There was plenty of room, the beds were all comfortable, three full baths with showers were excellent, although one of our guests loved the outdoor shower and used it twice. The kitchen is lovely, and my daughter wanted to stay there! It is extremely functional. We loved sitting on the deck, or around the firepit at night. We only have a couple of suggestions: I was using a cane to walk, and the stairs to the kennel could use a handrail (no one else had a problem there, though) and the queen bedrooms could use air conditioning, as they got a little too warm, even with the fans going.
This was our family’s second summer at Tall Timbers Lodge for summer vacation, and we love it! All of the amenities of the house and outdoor living space more than make up for not having a rental on the river. We are already booked again for next summer. Becky and Mark are wonderful hosts. Highly recommend!
Becky and Mark could not have been more welcoming or helpful. We had wonderful weather and enjoyed museums, boat ride, tours. We visited with family that stayed at the house in addition to others that visited. All enjoyed the fire pit and smores. 8 stayed in the house and we did not feel crowded. It was a great week and we will return when we can.
Enjoyed the outdoor amenities!
First time renting a home away from home. It was a pleasant experience! Easy online booking. Hostess communicated quickly.
