Capeway Cottages

A Waterfront Escape in the Heart of the Thousand Islands

Capeway Cottages sits on one of the most picturesque stretches of the St. Lawrence River in Cape Vincent, New York. Founded by Steve and Lorrie in 2017, this collection of eight charming cottages has become a beloved destination for travelers seeking an authentic Thousand Islands experience. The owners’ passion for the region is evident in every detail—they fell in love with the area years ago and created Capeway Cottages to share that magic with guests.

Cottages for Every Group Size

The property features eight individually appointed cottages, ranging from cozy studio-sized units to the spacious three-bedroom Capeway House. Most importantly, every cottage arrives fully stocked and ready for comfort. Guests will find complete kitchens, fresh linens, and window air conditioning throughout. This setup makes it easy to prepare meals, relax, and settle in like you’re staying at a friend’s lake house rather than a commercial rental.

On-Site Amenities and Activities

Beyond the cottages themselves, the property provides thoughtful touches that enhance any stay. Two fire pit areas invite evening gatherings and s’mores, while a bicycle shed stocked with bikes makes exploring the village effortless. During the season, a vegetable garden supplies fresh produce for guests to enjoy—a delightful farm-to-table element.

Steps Away From Everything

Because Capeway Cottages sits just one minute’s walk from Cape Vincent’s charming downtown, the location offers the best of both worlds: peaceful waterfront seclusion paired with easy access to village amenities. The supermarket, coffee shops, restaurants, and gift shops are all within walking distance. Therefore, guests never need to drive to enjoy dining or shopping.

Gateway to Water Adventures

The public boat launch sits directly next door, making this property ideal for fishing enthusiasts, kayakers, and anyone wanting water-based recreation. Whether you’re planning to cast a line into the St. Lawrence River or paddle out for exploration, launching your adventure takes mere minutes. Besides that, swimming and water sports are available right from the property’s waterfront location.

Why Choose Capeway Cottages

What sets Capeway Cottages apart is the personal touch owners Steve and Lorrie bring to the experience. They operate with a philosophy that guests are family—not just visitors passing through. As a result, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming rather than purely transactional. The combination of comfortable accommodations, thoughtful amenities, gorgeous river views, and walkable village access makes this property an outstanding choice for anyone planning a getaway to the Thousand Islands region.
