    A nice little local museum, mostly about the history of the Thousand Islands and its people. Check it out if you're in the area!

    This was such an amazing place to visit for my family! 2 little kids, 2 parents and 2 grandparents…read more We booked a ride the river boat tour and had an absolute blast! Worth every single penny plus a big tip to the captain who we learned is only a volunteer. Captain Torensen I believe was his name. My husband said we should make the tour part of our annual 1000 Islands trip. I have to agree. We own a boat but there was something about being in that woody speeding around the gorgeous scenery by an expert captain that left a lasting impression on me. We enjoyed looking at all the antique boats in the numerous buildings on the property. My kids even had a great time and were not bored. There is also a small play garden and some interactive features throughout. I honestly assumed the museum itself would be a bit boring but it was not. We ended up missing a building so pay close attention to your map as you go through. Our GPS took us straight to the main building front door where there is metered street parking but we were informed by someone from the restoration shop across the street that there is a free grass parking lot behind the the shop. There was a lovely lady at the front desk who answered so many of my questions and provided extremely helpful advice about their Tuesday free sailing program which unfortunately was postponed until tomorrow but we may try to come back to participate. We also bought some items from the gift shop and the gentleman running the counter in there was very friendly as well. 10/10 cool place to visit with wonderful staff

    Just happened to see this museum as we visited the cheese shop nearby. Stopped in to see what items…read morethey had on display. So many amazing pieces out and great explanations of what they are or used for. So many fishing items, really loved to see all the local historical photos,

    A few hundred seat theater that is surprisingly nice for a small town. Last weekend I saw a native…read moreClaytonian perform a Broadway/American standards concert, and it was a fun night out (he was very talented!). No issues with sounds or lighting, and comfy seats that aren't bolted to the floor so you can spread out a little. Clayton Opera House offers a variety of performances at reasonable prices, and online tickets can be printed at home or picked up at will call. Parking is not bad if you get there early enough to park in the O'Brien's lot, otherwise you may get stuck with street parking. One thing I wasn't excited about: there is no obvious mask policy, no signs, no hand sanitizer, no spacing of seats, and no mention of vax status, either in the building or on the tickets/email. They probably don't need all of these things, but maybe one or two. My husband and I wore masks the whole time we were there, and we were in the minority. Other than that, we enjoyed the concert immensely.

    Attended the Nat. geographic Underwater Photo presentation. It was so crowded seating my knees…read moretouched the seat in front of me. The person's head was so close it blocked out the screen. There were so many people, they overwhelmed the air conditioning. The director's response to my complaint was curt and condescending. I have enjoyed many events in the Opera House but I won't be back in their new overcrowded seating arrangement.
