Really amazing museum in the small vacation town of Clayton. Be sure to take an antique boat ride and to check out the race boat building. Wood Boat brewery is just across the street with amazing pizza and beer.

Beautiful State Park for camping. Pick a site near the St. Lawrence River to see the big ships, small watercraft, ducks, seagulls, and be in close proximity to the beach, Marina, and bathhouse. Pet friendly. As first time RV campers we were nervous. Our beagle loved it and we did too. Bikes and fishing poles are good to have too. Can’t wait to go back!

6. Zenda Farms Preserve
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 7 reviews
Zenda was a dairy and beef farm that operated through the 1950s. Now, its agricultural history is preserved by the Thousand Islands Land Trust for future generations to discover, and its pastures and hay meadows are conserved for nesting grassland birds. Zenda is now the home of the annual Community Picnic at the beginning of the summer season, as well as numerous TILTreks, KidsTreks and often, TILTKids Camp. The MacFarlane Trail is open year-round to the public, dawn to dusk, and is dog friendly. TILT's management plan for the future of Zenda Farms is to establish the Preserve as a model for land conservation through community involvement and learning within its ecologically diverse and culturally historic farm setting."

In the spring the Preserve is filled with grasses and wonderful flowers coming up. Birds singing, as summer gets hotter, different flowers, grasses, birds. The Preserve has a well-maintained trail that is 1.5 miles one time around. If you want to go for a hike and don't want to worry about ticks walk the trail at the Preserve. It is absolutely beautiful. One of my favorite places to take pics as I walk.
