Very interesting if you want to know the history of some of the wooden boats and car races in the Alexandria Bay area
Great history museum. Love it.
This museum is great if youre an antique boat enthusiast.
A neat little piece of history with exhibits on the history of the store (ca. 1880s I believe), and some local boat makers from the 1930s.
A great little museum that covers the history of the 1000 Islands and Alexandria Bay!
The lady there is extremely knowledgeable and willing to share. Amazing free history lessons.
Beautiful museum b y the river, great displays, books, and video of shipwrecks.

2021-07-31Great little free museum and a good addition to round out the day after a boat trip out of A-Bay. Good place to while away an hour if its raining too.

2019-08-15A wonderful little museum with a great mix of local history. Skiffs, boat history, street races in late 1930s, printing, and family history. Three floors. If that is a problem, just the main floor is worth it. Donations accepted.

2019-08-13The volunteers who run this museum are heroes for preserving a town’s (and region’s) history as thoroughly as this. They’ve given a great gift to anyone interested in the history of the 1000 Islands.

2017-08-24A very neat place to check out in Alexandria Bay, it offers a wealth of history of the local area and some nationally known pastimes as well. They are tucked away off the main drag, so you definitely should venture over and check the museum out. There is no admission charge, but donations are graciously accepted.

2021-03-02If you enjoy history this is a definite stop when in A Bay. I was amazed at all there was to see. I could have easily spent two or more hours looking and talking to the caretaker which is like talking to a favorite uncle you havent seen in a while.

2018-01-04Interesting. A good portion of the museum is boat and water focused, which isnt my favroite,, but I still found it overall interesting. And hey its free!
