We just got back from staying at the Rock Ledge Motel, and it was a great experience. The owners are super nice, and will do anything that they can to accomodate their customers. They were very friendly and went above and beyond what they needed to do. The place is extremely well kept, everything was very clean and we were very surprised to see we had a refrigerator, coffee maker and a micro wave in the room. You are very close to Alexandria Bay just a hop skip and jump, but you have total peace and quite. Also, about a 1/4 of a mile is a nice little store you can get snacks at. We also had shampo and soap in our bathroom, which was another surprise, with the cost of things many places have stopped doing that. We also had our grandchildren with us, they had a great time playing in the big front yard after traveling two hours in the car they needed to get out and run for awhile, also several other people walked the circle in front of the motel.

They had a picinic table set up outside and a grill as well if you wanted to cook.

All and all we loved the experience that we had and are planning on staying next year, maybe trying one of the cabins this time. You won't be disappointed if you book this hotel, it is well worth the money.

If you are looking for luxury accomodations in the Alex Bay region, it will be difficult to find. Throughout the years, little development or improvement has been done in the region and therefore, nice accomodations are slim pickings.

The Rock Ledge was cute on the outside, old, but extremely clean on the inside.The room was a bit musty and the walls between the units were pretty thin.

The staff was incredibly nice, parking, however was a bit difficult since there isn't a large parking area. Inside the room was equipped with a refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker, all if which went unused.

From a safety perspective, one of the windows did not lock all the way and the locks on the doors were pretty flimsy. When we left for the day, we took to taking most of our belongings with us.

Bottom line . .if you are looking for a no frills, clean place to stay, then this will do for you. It did for us. .

The hotel is very clean, in a nice quiet location. We had some confusion over the rates however: I was told when I made the reservation that I would probably get a weekday-rate for my thursday reservation, however I was talking to an employee who was not Jim or Cindy (the owners). I was a bit surprised to find out later that for thursday I would be charged a weekend rate (about $20 more per room). The reason was this: because I also booked for the Friday, thursday turned into a weekend as they have a two night minimum on weekends. They were very accomodating after I complained about the confusion, and I was quite happy with my service and stay in the end. At any rate, make sure you talk to Cindy or Jim (Jim is extremely friendly and very nice) when you call.

I hadn't been back to ABay for almost 14 years and wanted to stay with my friends, Jim and Cindy Durand. They didn't know I was arriving and when I walked up the driveway to see if they had a room for me they greeted me like it was only yesterday since we had seen each other. They got me a room and invited me to join in their youngest son's graduation celebration. It was like coming home again. The room was comfortable and the motel is close to all the activities I would want to do and to the shops and restaurants of Alexandria Bay. Thanks Jim and Cindy for welcoming me back.
