Service With a Heart -…read more Recently visited a Service Ontario location and witnessed first-hand how a manager responded to a situation involving someone who had clearly been without shelter for quite some time. The manager took the time to speak to them and went above & beyond to put the individual in touch with someone who could ensure they were taken care of. The staff at the counter and front desk were equally kind and attentive, and the service I received was on par with what I witnessed. We need more people like this!

I visited Service Ontario to change my provincial health card and driver's license from NS to ON. I…read morefind the general information on the website confusing, so I armed myself with my passport, proof of address, birth certificate and every form of ID I could think of so the experience would go smoothly. This location gets busy, so expect a wait. But, the employees are all very friendly and helpful. My only disappointment is that I could only get my health card transfered; for driver's license I need to visit a road test centre, even though Service Ontario issues car related things like license plates etc. Note that if you do come close to closing time, as long as you get in the door before close, they will serve you; you'll just have to wait a bit!

The visitor's center was closed when I arrived but the restrooms area was still open. Good enough…read morefor a quick break and move on. It is definitely convenient, located just south of the Thousand Islands Bridge and Wellesley Island after you cross over the Saint Lawrence River from Canada. New York doesn't allow overnight parking in rest areas and welcome centers, which is seriously annoying. Limited to three hours, per Title 17, Chapter IV, Section 156.3 which is currently linked here: https://regulations.justia.com/states/new-york/title-17/chapter-iv/subchapter-c/part-156/section-156-3/. So yeah, if you want to stop for a bit, do so. If you want to get a decent sleep in your RV? Move on. [Review 1570 of 2024 - 486 in New York - 22593 overall]

Good stop for a photo op and to pick up some made in NY products. Small historical area, kind of…read morelike a one wall museum. Nice outdoor seating area to rest or have a picnic. Ample indoor seating as well, with a snack and coffee bar. Shopping selection is quite small, I'd like to see even more products offered to buy, but it's a good start!

Park downtown Kingston, with access to the ferries and marina. Easy to get to from the highway …read more Nice spot to enjoy some ice cream or picnic. They have statues/ art, a fountain, an old time train and tourist office. There is also a walk from Ottawa to Kingston that goes through the park. Came on a cloudy day so wasn't too busy and the ferries were closed. The highlight and main attraction was the Kingston life size letters to take photos with as the "I".

I know probably no one will go to this park, but I had to put a review here…read more On my drive between Montreal and Toronto, we needed to have a pit stop to have a quick bite to eat and to stretch our legs. I planned on only staying for 15 minutes max, so we could get to Toronto sooner. Then, after finally hitting downtown and parking in a garage (it was $1 for 30 min...), I said "We have 30 mins max." We walked to the park, which was amazing. People were outside, the fountain was beautiful, and the weather was absolutely perfect (I know the park didn't make the weather nice, but still). There were hot dog vendors out (there were like 6, and I got the Polish sausage, which was divine). There was a street sidewalk fair of the people in the area selling various goods (I bought some homemade soap and I got some locally grown blueberries to snack on). We eventually stayed for a little over an hour. It was an hour well spent. If you are ever making the drive from Montreal to Toronto (or the other way), and the weather is nice, I highly recommend decompressing at this quaint little town. You will not be disappointed! BTW, the downtown is vibrant, lots of places to eat, hang out.

You can walk inside the lighthouse and hear the bull horn they used to emplpy, and read lots of facts about it's history. There is also a beautiful view at the Tibbetts Point.

About 3 mi from the village of Cape Vincent is the Tibbitts Point Lighthouse, a well-kept and…read morehistorical sight on Lake Ontario. If you are interested in the view, there is a viewer that points to many of the surrounding islands and operates on a quarter. There is also a visitor centre as well as a hostel near the property. We biked over from the village, and the drive is a beautiful one with lots of scenic lake views and pretty properties to see.

The CBP maintains an office here as well. The picnic pavilion is in good shape and there are a few benches about. Some of the paved walkways aren't completely smooth for wheelchairs but are easy enough to walk. [Review 1579 of 2024 - 494 in New York - 22602 overall]
