- Welcome to The Ledges Resort & Marina! We are located directly on the St. Lawrence River across from Boldt Castle. We have views of the castle, Sunken Rock Lighthouse, and the main shipping channel. We have decks, docks, hammocks, and gazebos across our six-acre property. There are so many great places to relax, read a book, walk, or go fishing. We have a beautifulnewly renovated in-ground pool. There are outdoor fire-pits where you can warm up under the stars. We even provide the firewood! There are plenty of open lawn areas to play catch, lawn games, or just take a walk.
The Ledges offers a peaceful getaway with six acres of landscaped grounds along the water. While the grounds provide privacy and lots of space, we are not in a remote location. It’s a quick and easy walk downtown Alexandria Bay. We are close to all of the attractions. At the Ledges you have the best of both worlds, relaxation and convenience!

Nice place to stay. It's a couple of blocks from the center of town and quite a walk but you can drive into town quite easily. Just hard to find parking in town during the busy season

Beautiful location & homey feel
This beautiful location on the river is a beautiful perfect spot for intimate getaways or a family vacation! I booked 4 locations as the Ledges Resort which housed 24 of my friends and family for a long weekend. We were all quite impressed with the staff, amenities, and overall experience. We walked to Main Street for dinner almost every night during our stay.

So much awesome in one place
This was our first time to A Bay and the Ledges and we loved it. We stayed in the Island cottage and we used the outdoor kitchen almost the entire time we were there because it was so incredible. The grounds are impeccably kept and the owners are super nice. We used the kayaks and hammocks but didn’t have enough time to use the unground pool this time! It was a cute, simple, affordable getaway that left us with not much else to do but have a good time and we soooooo look forward to going back!

Nice week away.
Island Cottage is basically an efficiency apartment for two best suited for the warmer months, if you plan to do your own cooking. There us heat and it works well so when eating out the property would work for all seasons. The kitchen area (stove, grill, small fridge, supplies) is on a covered but not screen in porch. There is a small kitchenette inside with a microwave, coffee pot and another small fridge. Management was responsive to reported problems and were on top of them quickly. When we arrived, we discovered that the small fridge on the porch was running but not cooling. It was replaced with a functioning unit mid-week. Given the odd size of the fridge this is impressive. They also offered the use of a Yetti cooler and ice until they could install the new unit. Friendly and fery customer service minded. The property is well groomed with lots of yard area. There are fire pits behind each cottage/cabin. There is a small area with a couple of chairs where guests can sit at the water front between two neighboring private properties. The view of the shipping channel from this cottage is over the top of the boats in the marina. Not impossible/not perfect. The gazebo on the ledge or the area by the shore mentioned above provide a better view. The addition of some play ground equipment might make the area a bit more child friendly. There are some cottages away from the water for those who find that a concern.

Comfortable bed, clean room and great view.
Overall the stay was very nice, a well stocked kitchen area, clean rooms, comfortable bed and great views. My only concern is the listing was for a King bed & I'm pretty sure there was a Queen is the room. My husband is very tall so we always try to book King rooms.

A Nice Suprise!
This resort is right on the water with a close view of Boldt Castle. The grounds and cottages are immaculate. Don't be weary staying so close to a marina, we were never disrupted by the boats or noise. A very quiet, relaxing resort. The property owners thought of everything, dishes, utensils, fire pits with wood, hammocks, gazebo to watch the sunset, kayaks, an area for fishing, off street parking. It was just what we were looking for and will definitely go back again!

Dynamite time in A-bay
This was the perfect little getaway in a perfect spot. The outdoor kitchen was awesome and being on water was unbeatable. Close to town and in walking distance from pretty much everything. Dave, the groundskeeper, was a cool dude, very helpful and friendly.

A perfect little cottage for a couple. The scenery was beautiful - boats coming and going and a nice view of the Castle on the horizon. Our accommodations could have used a deep clean, but were overall well maintained and had plenty of amenities. Bring some food to grill - they have all the plates, utensils, etc! Fire pit access, hammocks, and a kayak/canoe (all community shared) were great activities.
