Description
A beautiful look at the houses and cottages of The Thousand Islands sure to delight anyone interested in interior design, architecture, island living or a rustic getaway. Featuring 24 cottages, ranging from modest to grand, in the Thousand Islands region of the St. Lawrence River, on the border between the US and Canada. Dating from 1864 to 1990, the houses collectively epitomize the dream of summertime waterfront living. Here the fantasy is made real—and has been realized for us in gorgeous photography, showing both wonderful interiors in a variety of styles, great exteriors ranging from Victorian Gothic, to Rustic, to Colonial, to Classical, all set within the extraordinary environment of the 1000 Islands region.
