Awesome place. Quiet, great views, clean, the owners care about you. Not a place for small kids. This place is for people who don't want to deal with the larger places in Alex Bay and costs half as much! We will be making the Channelsyde our favorite place to stay. We loved every minute of our stay. Got to see... more

Had the pleasure of spending a few days at this marvelous private motel located directly on the channel. A spanse of luscious green lawn and a variety of lounges, chairs and tables with umbrellas allow a totally unobstructed view of the channel and its activity. This is a perfect place if you're seeking a quiet and relaxing visit. Hope to... more

We stayed here for only a couple of nights and wish we could have stayed longer. The owners were very gracious and gave helpful information about the area. Beautiful lawn fronting the river where we could sit and watch the ships on the seaway. Room was quite comfortable and well decorated. This is the cleanest place we have ever stayed... more

Stayed 4th of July weekend for first time. Great location, right on the St. Lawrence. Clean rooms and grounds. We will be back. more

It was nice and quiet, no noisy kids. The grounds are really nice. The rooms are a bit small but adaquate and clean. The owner was very friendly. The neighbors were all friendly. It was a very relaxed atmosphere. Would consider coming again. It's so great you have to book well in advance if you want a room. Worth the... more

Pete and Sue and their son are wonderful hosts. The rooms were spotless and freshly painted. The view from our front "balcony" allowed stunning views of the sun setting over the Channel while boats of various sizes cruised by as well as the occasional freighter headed south on the Seaway. They even had a small boat that they rented for... more

We stay at Channelsyde every year and this IS the only place to stay in Alex Bay. The owners are WONDERFUL, and will do anything to make your stay comfortable. Channelsyde is quiet and peaceful- and it is close enough to downtown Alex Bay. You get the best of both worlds!! The rooms are immaculate and well decorated. You will... more

My wife and I just concluded our forth multi-day stay at the Channelsyde, and there will be many more. The rooms are very clean, although small. The lawn going down to the river is immaculate with plenty of lounge chairs to relax in while watching the big boats manuever up and down the St. Lawrence. There's fishing off the docks... more

We've stayed here twice before and loved it. However we went back with our daughters family and it was a nightmare. Because the 3 and 6 yr olds played like children and made noise, stepped on a flower we were told never to come back. Another family with a young girl were yelled at for letting her play with a... more
