Make your meals together in our gourmet kitchen or on our outdoor grill. Dine together at our custom farm table constructed from reclaimed wood or "al fresco” on our deck. Finish your day sharing stories around our wood burning fireplace on the main level, up in the loft, or out by the fire pit. Share videos or photos from your excursions in the TV room. Rounding out the main level is the "King Room" featuring a king bed, private bathroom with soaking tub, walk-in shower, and water closet. The "Coho Room" has a queen bed and is adjacent to a full bathroom. Lounge in the loft where story telling, curling up with your favorite book, or looking out onto the country might be relaxing. From the loft, follow the catwalk across the foyer to the in-law suite with two private rooms: the "Brown Trout Room" with its king bed and the "Steelhead Room" with two twin beds. They share a full bathroom. The walk-out basement and lower level was designed primarily as a staging area for fishermen. Equipped with rod holders, wader hooks, and corker mats, this is the perfect place to gear up in comfort for a day of fishing. Rod holders are also available underneath the deck of the walk-out basement. There is a table for tying flies or playing cards. We also have the "Bunker Room" downstairs with two bunks featuring twin over queen beds across from a full bathroom.

This house was perfect for our visit we had with old friends, & to celebrate a birthday. We were there right before the salmon run, so it was a busier time for the area, but still very quiet, with beautiful farmland all around. We would definitely stay here again. The house is spacious, and very comfortable.

The home and area are great. It was perfect for our needs and close to Mexico for our fishing charter. We were able to go to a couple of flea markets close by. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you so much, Henry and Linda, for sharing your incredible home! We were pleasantly surprised at how beautifully designed and comfortable this rental was for our family. It was accommodating for a range of needs and the owners were extremely easy to work with. The views were lovely, and it was very convenient to both the river and beach as well. Excellent stay! We hope to be back again. (And also Janine says hi- God is good) ;)

There is plenty of room for a large family. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. The deck is great for spending time outside.
If you're adventurous, try Adirondack River Outfitters whitewater rafting in Watertown. It's a wild ride.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful home! We are a family that loves to cook and found the kitchen well stocked. Evenings on the back porch were wonderful. Everything about this home was well thought out. Communication with the owners was easy and they were very responsive. Will definitely look for this property’s availability for next years reunion.

It’s a beautiful large and welcoming house. My family enjoyed our stay. I would greatly recommend it to others. The host is very responsive and made sure we have everything we needed.
4.0
Our first time staying the in the area and we truly enjoyed it. The home and location were wonderful. Communication was great with the owner. The only negative we have about the home was the cleanliness. It did not appear as though it had been recently cleaned. We spent about an hour vacuuming the floors and wiping dust off the counters, tables, etc. We also washed several sets of sheets because beds looked like they had been laid/slept in.

Any fisherman and his or her family would love staying in this cabin-inspired quiet retreat from its well appointed furnishings, to its many comfort zones throughout for unwinding, this home exceeded my expectations for our family of 14 who traveled to Syracuse for my son’s graduation from S. U. (Go Orange!). We stayed at the aptly named The Kings Gathering at Ellis Cove where we broke bread cooking indoors and out on the grill enjoying each other’s company and relaxed outside by the fire pit before retreating to our fish-named bedrooms with the youngest members staying in the perfectly accommodating bunk room on the bottom floor. A short walk through the property’s backyard forest made for little adventures to the salmon river during our weeklong stay and even though we didn’t get to see any fish as they don’t run during the month of May, it was nice just to take a stroll on the riverbank and gaze at the flow of the waters which will eventually be teaming with the Kings and their other freshwater counterparts. I look forward to the day I can return to try and fish for them. All in all, the home is spectacular and the hosts Henry and Linda are very unselfish to share it with others to enjoy. Communication with Henry via VRBO’s messaging system was excellent and timely. The only thing that needs attention for future guests inside the home is the cleaning of the ceiling fan blades in the upstairs bedrooms which have accumulated dust on their leading edges as well as the sweep-up of dust devils that seem to gather about some areas of the floor and baseboards. That is the reason why I didn’t give it a full star rating in cleanliness but other than that, this property checked all the boxes of a perfect home in upstate N.Y. away from city noise and traffic where the soothing sounds of wild birds will take you away.

Super house and location, great house and amenities. Water pressure is poor, perhaps the water tank is flat and needs to be pressurized.

Accommodations were very good for our large group of family and friends. Enjoyed our evening out at the fire pit and our walks to the river. Unfortunately this winter didn’t cooperate for snowmobiling however the house is set up very well for our next snowmobile trip.

Steelhead fishing headquarters. Short walk to the river, house is spacious and clean. Henry is great to communicate with. Would highly recommend this property.

We have stayed here in both the summer and winter. Both times of year the house was excellent, each offering a different experience of the river, use of spaces in/out of the house, and local activities. Would stay again.

We had a wonderful time! Even though the snow was starting to melt there was enough for our Florida kids to be happy. There was lots of firewood prepared, salt for the steps and other little things to make it a great trip. Everyone had a space and privacy. Only thing we would change would be more pillows. A few in our group are pillow hogs lol

Our stay was delightful. We had the best time at this beautiful gem.
From the trail to the river to every detail in the property was beautiful.
This is a highly recommended spot to get away with family and friends.
The only issue, is that once these great reviews start climbing, that we won’t get a many chances to stay there again as it would constantly get booked!
Thanks for giving us an opportunity to stay at your property. Will be looking to go again in near future.

Our family hadn’t been together on a vacation since 2019. We searched for a property that could house the 7 of us comfortably, and also provide a balance between social spaces and quiet spaces. This was 100% perfect for us. We each spent a great deal of time simply relaxing, while also enjoying wonderful family meals, games and talks. What a blessing that these hosts have made this home available! We loved our Altmar experience at The King’s Gathering!

The house we rented was absolutely wonderful! We wanted for nothing as far as furnishings went. And the view from our deck was superb. Our family had a fantastic time catching up, playing games and enjoying each other’s company. It was a grand vacation!

If you are looking to fish in this area, this is the place to stay. Great layout and the perfect place for fisherman with close proximity to the best holes on the river. Henry is an outstanding host who is extremely responsive, though he has thought of just about everything for the house and you won't need him for much! This was my second stay here - can't say enough good things about it.

This trip was to get away with couples to go snowmobiling. The house was amazing. Was close to the trails so riding was an ease. The house was ready early and communication with the owner was easy. The trip went so well we already planned for next year
Only thing the house missed was a hot tub for relaxing after a long day of riding. But the fireplace warmed us up nicely
Thank you for a great trip!!!
