Stayed here while on a bus trip with a group of adults. The location was great for our purpose, which was touring the 1000 Islands area, including a few castles and wineries.
Charles, the manager, made our stay enjoyable. He and his staff were very attentive and accommodating. They even bent over backwards to make sure that they gave us rides on a golf cart to the restaurant or our bus when needed.
I stayed in Big Moose lodge and the view from the balcony was great. I saw Heart island with Boldt castle, and had a panoramic view of the St. Lawrence River. Many boats went by and it was a great place for birding, reading and relaxing. This seems like a place that families would enjoy. There is a lot of space outside for kids to run around and explore. Other than the restaurant, I would not call this an upscale place.
Since I was with a group, we ate our seafood buffet dinner in the private banquet room they call the gazebo/red room since the restaurant was busy. It had a stage, a bar, a large balcony, couch, etc. It was connected to the gift shop/lobby area and restaurant. Unfortunately, it was overcast and rainy the whole time I was there (and it was just passed Labor Day) so I didn't get to use the outdoor pool, but it looked nice. The only real complaint I had was the Wi-Fi. I found it very hard to make a phone call from my room.

We stayed at the Edgewood Resort August 14th and August 15th. While I did gook a room in the 500's which is village view we where pleasantly surprised to be put in room 123 overlooking the water. The room had recently been redone and was nicely appointed new bedding and carpet. The bathroom had also recently been redone and was very clean. Beautiful deck with both a view of the Bridge and Boldt Castle. Biggst disappointment was how extremely loud it was Friday night. Between hearing several tv's and loud groups of people we almost checked out and stayed somewhere else the next night. Luckily someone else must of complained as it was much quieter the next night. Since the restaurant on site was not open, we went up to the checkin area and had dinner in the banquet room overlooking Boldt Castle. Service was top notch and food was great. They even gave everyone coming in a garlic pizza flat bread as a free appetizer. My only pointer is if you are a light sleeper this might not be the place for you as an older resort that has been updated the walls are still very thin but the grounds are beautiful and welcoming. Although we did not use it the pool looked very inviting as well. Only other thing that would of been a nice upgrade would be a mini fridge in the room

I’m not sure I have visited an accommodation with such friendly, efficient, and hard working staff— most who are three generations owners—- grandmother, mother, father, and sons. The resort seems to be under renovations and updates at all times because it is quite dated. Food was excellent and rooms are decent size as well as quiet. Downside are stairs that may be difficult for some (we were on the second floor) but a staff is frequently ready to shuttle guests, help with luggage, and offer friendly chit chat. Our room, 511 could use new fluffy pillows.
Wishing Edgewood much success in the future.

My wife and I met up with another married couple to enjoy 'Blues in the Bay'. There aren't a lot of spots in Alex Bay to stay where you are within close proximity to the downtown and we normally stay at the Riveredge (which has a nice Tiki Bar and decent restaurant too).

We set our reservations early, just as things were reopening from Covid, and the owners were very flexible for us, even upgrading us a bit. We ended up having rooms in the 500 section, which had beautiful balconies overlooking the bay. We really enjoyed sitting out on the balcony watching boats and just enjoying the time. Keep in mind that if you opt for the view of the piers that you will have to put up with the loud boats roaring in late night... it's part and parcel of the Bay. If you can't deal with it, ask for some of the rooms farther inland.

Rooms are very well apportioned and seem to have been updated recently. Everything looks clean and fairly new. Restrooms are spacious, with nice tubs/showers. Rooms have small refrigerators and plenty of drawers (and a closet). The air conditioner works pretty well and kept us comfortable. Parking is plentiful and there are some nice trails, scenes, and such to enjoy right on the grounds.

One of the downsides here (depending on your view) is that it is located pretty far off the main strip, and is reached by a long winding driveway. You can see the downtown from your room, but to get there would be a long walk or a good drive to go all the way around to downtown. If you like to be away from the hubbub and don't mind driving, this is a good thing.

The only low point that we have would be the meals we had at the resort's restaurant. Granted, being such a long walk from the downtown, it's nice that there is a bar and restaurant right on the grounds. The saloon was closed while we were there, but the first night we enjoyed a couple of beers at the restaurant. The restaurant looks nice, has a nice menu, and a tremendous view. We enjoyed hanging out with a few drinks. On the second night, we went there for dinner and were not impressed with the food. Service was outstanding but the food was lacking. We ordered off the menu and tried the blackened salmon, chicken milanese, and chicken riggies... none of them were very good. Flavors and textures were average to OK. They had a prime rib buffet going on, but we didn't try it.

Overall, this is a great place to stay - very comfortable and well appointed. I don't recommend the on site restaurant for anything much more than drinks, but it is tempting due to the proximity. There are enough nice places around in the Bay and Clayton that offer takeout that should satisfy your hunger!

We went to the Edgewood for dinner on a Friday night we had early reservations - 530 pm - the restaurant was 1/4 full we did their Friday seafood buffet at $40 a head. We were seated by the hostess and waited and waited for our server who never came the bartender came over to see if we wanted a drink after he brought us water and ice teas he said if we wanted the buffet to help ourselves. the peel and eat shrimp was frozen or soft and mushy in our opinion not safe to eat. The lasagna was hard as a rock. the broil fish was dry and crumbly the fried fish was greasy like it had been fried twice. the seafood Nuremburg had shrimp tails in it. We never tried the mussels there was suppose to be steamed clams but we didn't see any. the clam chowder was thin and taste of flour not clams. We never ever had a server, we know they were there because the other tables had them. the bus boy got our check for us. We will never recommend the Edgewood or eat there again.

We've gone many places on our senior bus trips, and the Edgewood Resort was better than anyplace we've stayed!!! The staff is the most sincere and accommodating staff I've ever encountered. The grounds are expansive and beautiful. They drive you in golf carts to wherever you need to be on the property. The breakfast and dinner buffets were superb!! I would highly recommend this outstanding resort!!!

No one should ever visit this resort. It should be condemned!!

We had several nights booked at the Harbor Hotel in Clayton but realized we were arriving a day early. In a pinch we stayed one night in their so called private balcony river room. Upon arrival we were told all the amenities are only open on Friday and Saturday. I was a little surprised at this point. No problem as we drive all day and were tired. Once we reached our room the area was dilapidated an unkempt. The room spelled overwhelmingly of Lysol cleaner. The bedding was of extremely low quality. I basically slept with my clothes on. There was also a very loud heater noise that came on and off all night. It was the worst night ever. We also were alarmed to find out that they close the lobby and don’t have a single employee on over night! What if an emergency happened? Don’t ever go to this resort!!!!

Back once again this year. The Black Bear is as comfortable as always, the view of the River, Cherry Island and Boldt Castle are old and treasured friends. Check in us as friendly as it has always been and it was just do good to be back for a weekend to relax.

After not having been back to the Edgewood for about three years, we spent the weekend in the Black Bear lodge. As usual Janine Ridley, the owner has been working hard to restore and update her beautiful resort. Many years ago the first time I stayed here it was in the hands of the bank. The next year it was in Janines hands and year after year I watched a restoration that is of the first order.
This resort is old, it has history, it has charm. To open the curtains and see the River, Boldt Castle, freighter going past is my idea of a happy place. I have over the years stayed in the room that we were in this weekend. It was renovated but the spirit of its past was there still. I have read some really nasty reviews of the Edgewood over the last couple of years and can still only wonder if these critics and I stayed in the same Edgewood. If you are looking for sleek and modern, stainless steel and black glass, it isn't your hotel. If you are looking for a beautiful, warm, charming, lovingly crafted hotel with comfy bedding, amazing views and spotlessly clean rooms...book a room. You won't be sorry.

I think that you directed your question to the traveller part of the Trip Advisor page. If you go directly to the Edgewood Resort and Conference website page, they actually have a price sheet on their site which will tell you the price. Enjoy your trip.

They are in the process of redoing the 100's (Bear rooms) but not all of them. They should be done very soon. They are the ones that face the River and have fabulous views. The Harbor rooms are also very nice, have views of the Town of Alex Bay and the Castle. Just ask when you make your reservations for what you would exactly like and they will accommodate you. Check the website ( The Edgewood Resort) and you will see pictures of the rooms. Enjoy your stay.

I was a guest who stayed Thursday through Saturday I don't know if they have monthly rates. You should contact the Edgewood desk and ask them. My experience is anything in America is possible as long as you have money and time. Safe travels. Bob
