Watertown, NY offers safe and attractive neighborhoods, quiet rural areas, affordable housing, light traffic, first-rate school systems and a gorgeous landscape, all combined with easy accessibility to major metropolitan areas. We are a half hour from the Canadian border. Watertown International Airport (ART) is just a short 15-minute drive, and Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR) is an hour south. Home to The St. Lawrence Seaway, you will find one of natures true wonders: The Thousand Islands. Take a boat tour of the Thousand Islands with a visit to Boldt Castle, owned by George C. Boldt, proprietor of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City. Boating, swimming, scuba diving and fishing are popular pursuits throughout the Thousand Islands. Watertown has four YMCA fitness centers in the area with endless recreational activities for kids and adults - including indoor swimming! Our local ski area is a gathering spot during the winter for family and friends, offering ski/snowboarding lessons for all ages. At the foot of the Adirondacks, the Tug Hill Region gets as much as 300 inches of snow annually and is the perfect place for skiers, snowboarders, snowmobilers, snowshoers, and snow lovers of all ages. In addition, nearby Fort Drum, home of the US Armys 10th Mountain Division, brings to the region a sense of diversity and patriotic pride!
