What a beautiful place that must have been to live! My mum had a Singer sewing machine 😁 The basic design seems to have stayed pretty much the same down the years! All the best and thanks for the tour👍😊
Thank you for sharing this. Been to Boldts castle a few times but never here. We are vacationing the area in august and are putting this castle on our to do list. ❤❤❤
I know this is 2 years later but I work for the Canadian version of Uncle Sam's boat tours across in rockport and I can definitely say boldt castle is great because you can spend all your time looking around, singer castle has allot more to see but not enough freedom to see it and it's truly unfortunate, the passages and dungeons are the coolest part you can't actually see.
Thank you Dave and Diane for the tour. I may never be in that side of the state because I live in the deep south (Louisiana) and I appreciate the effort it took to put this video together. I will see the Boldt Castle if I get to New York State in the future. Stay safe Jim Dugas
I don’t recall ever seeing this place before. I would like to explore it. Nice boat ride over. The whole tour was nice. Need more time in the gift shop. Thumbs up 👍
It's probably not the most popular in that area but certainly well known. We really enjoyed the boat ride and if they slowed the tours down a little it would have been much better.
@@daveanddianethrowingcautio5707 Is there any other possibility to get there on another tour? I would imagine that I would have the same problem you had as I tend to fixate on certain things that interest me.
@@nz1229 I don't know of one. The problem is it isn't the boat ride folks that do the tour, I think the tour guides just do the tours and they are on a strict time frame it seems. NOW, you can rent a room for a night but I don't know how much free reign you would have around the mansion.
I always find castles to look cold and uninviting, but this castle looked very pretty inside, and was kind of a homey feeling to me. I don’t like being rushed either. Wonder if it is just like that depending on the amount of people? I think Diane may have as many scarves as you have hats lol! But that’s okay, at least she stays warm lol! Happy Trails!
LOL,,, you know what, now that you mention it Diane just might have more scarves that I do caps. That does not seem right and I will work on that LOL!!! Thanks for pointing that out.
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada I really enjoyed the video who owns singer castle island now and how much do you pay to visit, on American waters
Hello over there!! We used a oat tour company to get us out to the island and I think we paid $45 for the ride and the tour. If a person takes a private boat over I think the tour itself is $15.
I would agree Boldt. Both are cool but you can do Boldt at your own pace. Spend all day if u like. When we did Singer it was a tour, didn't feel rushed but I believe it was less than 2 hours.

Could you imagine living or growing up in a place like that or having a grandparent you were able to visit that lived there,,, a different world.
Cool 😎 castle 👍
It was a nice one for sure!!
I worked there last summer, I absolutely loved it, can’t wait to go back
I bet that would be a interesting summer job.

It's a sight to see for sure.

Thank you Jim, glad you enjoyed the video. And thanks for the kind words about the effort that goes into these video's. Have a great weekend.
This was beautiful. I've been wanting to visit the Thousand Islands for a few years.
It's a very pretty area, you guys would enjoy it I'm sure.

Oh and If I remember correctly a German investor now owns the island and castle.
If I have choice to do Boldt Castle vs Singer Castle tour, which one you recommend ?
Thats easy,,, Boldt Castle for sure.
I would agree Boldt. Both are cool but you can do Boldt at your own pace. Spend all day if u like. When we did Singer it was a tour, didn't feel rushed but I believe it was less than 2 hours.
