Canoe-Picnic Point is the place to be! That is, if you have a boat or are like a fish in the water. You see, this secluded island on the St. Lawrence river, is well, an island. Automatic coolness factor, +10. The park is on Grindstone Island, which is one of the largest islands in the famous “Thousand Islands” area. (Rumored as one of the most beautiful places in the state). As you would expect, the boating and fishing is excellent and is what draws most people, but the island itself is quite pretty with picnic areas scattered about and secluded, forested campgrounds. Canoe-Picnic Point is a wonderful visit and only accessible by boat… how cool is that?

Our main goal was to escape the noise and take our dogs on a fun trip before the end of summer. This was an amazing, quiet get away where we spent most of our time walking dogs, listening to birds, and just relaxing. The dogs also enjoyed nearby Forest Park trails.

What a lovely little get-away this was. The hermit thrushes tweeted gently all around, the fairy lights along the paths and cabins lit up after dark, making the whole place quite enchanting, day and night. We were the only folks who happened to be camping there and so we enjoyed absolute solitude and all the summer sounds of the old woods.
While there I could tell so much thought and care went into making this place as cozy as can be. Savanna was beyond gracious, through and through. Thank you, again, for making our stay so comfortable.

You'd be hard pressed to find a better location for a quick get away, or an extended camp stay.
The property is gorgeous and well maintained. Our cabin was in clean and equipped with a fan, heater, lighting, ect...
The hosts are so gracious and care deeply for everyone's experiences on their property.
With mini golf, roller skating, trails to walk, a river to swim in, and so much more - This location truly has it all.
We couldn't have asked for a better stay and we can't wait to come back!

Lovely and cozy cabin in a private area. The hosts were great and super helpful. The cabin is solar/battery powered but they ran a quiet generator to refill the battery when it ran out. The bathroom building is right by the cabin and has a flush toilet and hot shower. The running water isn't potable, but they provided a water cooler for drinking water.

So welcoming and peaceful! When I met Savanna upon arrival, she said, “the camp is a labor of love.” And it shows! She and her husband Brad have made a little slice of heaven in a beautiful stand of hard woods and mature white pine. The cabin is off grid but powered up by a high-capacity battery. Super comfy and cozy, it’s a great one-room refuge. Bonus points for the screened porch entryway and easy chairs.
A bath house is a short walk with an outdoor work sink and a lovely interior with tile floors, nice shower, and bath sink I’d be proud to have in my home. Warm, clean, and inviting, it’s a beautiful bath house.
Tho there is no wi-fi, cell works well-enough to stream a movie or podcast.
Highly recommend!
