Thousand Islands Winery has always been my absolute favorite, truly some of the best wines I've…read moreever had. I love them so much that I sent a selection to a friend in Florida for Christmas. When the package arrived in Florida, UPS made an error and sent it back to the winery. That's when Patty at Thousand Islands Winery became a true Christmas angel. She stepped in immediately, handled everything with such care, and made sure my gift was rerouted to ensure delivery. Her kindness and dedication turned a stressful situation into a wonderful experience. Thanks to Patty, Thousand Islands Winery has now made a big splash in Florida too. I already adored their wines, but now I love everything about this establishment, the quality, the service, and the people behind it. Highly recommend, every time.

My family and I had dinner at Jake's on the Water during our recent trip to Potsdam. Unfortunately,…read morewe couldn't sit outside because of the rain, but our table inside still offered a great view of the water. The restaurant wasn't crowded, but there were enough guests to give it a nice atmosphere. It felt comfortable, relaxed, and not noisy at all. We started with the Kung Pao Cauliflower, which was excellent. Even my kids, who don't usually enjoy vegetables, ate every bite. For their meals, both kids ordered brick oven pizzas. My older child had the Labrador and finished the entire pizza by himself, while my younger child ordered the Authentic with pepperoni and really enjoyed it. My wife ordered the fish of the day, and I chose the scallop special. Overall, the food was very good, the service was pleasant, and the waterfront setting made for an enjoyable dining experience. I would definitely return the next time I'm in the area.

My wife and I came up to this neck of the woods while visiting family and had a great meal here…read more The location is beautifully located on the water (unfortunately our visit was more gray and gloomy outside). All of the staff we interacted with were great and friendly. Our family from this area raved about their poutine, but a recent menu change got rid of it. Despite that they had a variety of starters/apps, sandwiches, pizzas, steaks, plus other entrees including some specials on a separate little menu. Included on that was two cocktails that we tried, I had two of their Strawberry Rhubarb Collins that was light and easy to drink with just enough strawberry and rhubarb flavor. My wife had their special sangria which had tons of flavor. Both fantastic drinks! As a group we split some pretzel sticks as well as some bang bang shrimp. With both being great bites before our meals with the beer cheese and mustard for the pretzels along with the shrimp sweet chili aioli being perfect dips. Lastly for the main event my wife and I were on the same wavelength and got their Vodka Chicken Parm, that originally was to come on top rice pilaf but both substituted for house made pasta. Everything from the vodka sauce, to the house made pasta, to the chicken were fantastic! Would gladly get it again. If we lived around here I would picture this being a regular stop for us! Friendly and welcoming staff with well made drinks and delicious food! Give it a try!

This Restaurant has comfortable seating and a pleasant atmosphere. The South wall of mostly…read morewindows, overlooks the golf course. The restaurant is carpeted, with plush furniture, inviting diners to enjoy intimate conversation; a rare dining pleasure in many restaurants these days. I don't recommend the Thai noodles (don't get this), but I highly recommend the chicken piccata. It's fabulous! Unfortunately it's not on the menu every day. The French onion soup and shrimp tacos are also very good. Especially when they have the Thai chili sauce version. I will be back for the chicken piccata! But unless they put it on the menu I'll need to call ahead first to find out if it's featured as a special. I will also be back for the comfortable enjoyable atmosphere.

Unfortunately, during our visit to this area our last meal was here and compared to everything else…read morewe had it just did not really impress us. Now compared to many places this general area does not have world class dining so comparing quality needs to be factored in. It also needs to be said that this is a hotel restaurant so if you are staying here and don't want to leave for a meal then give it a try. I can only speak to breakfast, maybe they are far better for lunch or dinner. The inside is kinda what you expect from an outdated hotel restaurant and could use some sprucing up. The highlight of the overall vibe is the window view of the golf course. Staff was friendly but speed wise of how long our food took was extremely slow especially considering so few tables were taken the day we went. Lastly, the food was forgettable and breakfast wise would be a skip if you were to ask me. Menu is also quite small and limited, look elsewhere before deciding to dine here.

Otter Creek Tasting Room is another must stop when visiting the Thousand Island region. It is a…read morecharming little shop to taste and purchase their local grown wines from Philadelphia New York. Most wines are semi sweet to sweet wines, and offer one dry. The cold climate dictates what grapes are able to be grown in the region. I'm a semi sweet girl so the wines are perfect for me. Staff was friendly and offered generous pores during tasting! Wine slushies are also available and old fashioned sodas they also make, that look so fun! I purchased a bottle of Wooly White and a gift item. There is also a gift shop next door that sells locally made soaps, candles, and other novelties. Definitely add this establishment to your list of places to visit!

The Red wine slushy was great! Tastes just like grape juice! Sweet, refreshing, great summer drink!read more

Apparently, almost everywhere in the vicinity is closed on Mondays with the exception of this brewing company and McDonald's! Raquette River brewing won! Normally, we're not too big on places with food trucks; however, this place had four food trucks, two of which looked like we would order from. Their beer was absolutely terrific! Couldn't recommend their wines though. I ordered their double IPA while my wife ordered one of the local wines they had on their list. The wine made it for two sips and I truly enjoyed the double IPA! My wife ended up switching to a blackberry sour they had on tap. We utilize the marketplace food truck. There was a combo special paste it on their side for smoked wings and smoked ribs. Combo with one side. My wife ordered the meat eaters flatbread. We also ordered an additional side of shoestring fries. I thought my smoked wings and ribs were absolutely delicious! After some seasoning, the shoestring fries were OK. Unfortunately, the meat eaters flatbread really needed some additional seasoning. Italian seasoning? Oregano? Just something more. That said, we can fully recommend the Raquette River Brewing! Great beers, and a very clean and lovely environment. PS, our server did a great job as well! She was friendly and professional! We even walked out with a crowler of American IPA!

I was greeted upon entering and had little to no wait to order. I went with the raspberry lemon squezzy! Light citrus, raspberry and refreshing, some club soda to give it some bubbly! I have had their slushies on prior visits but it was on the cooler side this visit. They also carry wines from local wineries. Modern trendy style atmosphere, with a good selection of boutique items or spirit and wine accessories. Large bar area plenty of tables and outdoor patio for seating.
