One older pontoon boat is included and reserved for Main Cottage guests.



The pontoon has a maximum capacity of eight people.



All operators must be at least 18 and complete the required Grant Island Rentals livery orientation before operating it.



The boat may be used for mainland transportation, fishing and recreational lake use.



After-dark boat operation is allowed only when required navigation lights are working and proper flotation devices are worn. Guests must bring a working flashlight and must remain visible to other potential nighttime boaters.



Fuel is included. Notify management when the fuel becomes low or the tank is empty, and we will refill the boat.



The included pontoon’s seat vinyl is weathered, faded and cracked in places. Paid upgraded pontoon options may be available.

The Neighborhood:

Grant Island is a privately owned island on public Brantingham Lake in the Adirondacks.



The Main Cottage offers a boat-in private-island vacation experience with a private-use waterfront section, pontoon boat, hot tub, dock, fire pit, swimming area and included non-motorized watercraft.



Brantingham Lake itself is a public lake. Other residents, property owners and recreational boaters may be on the water.



The lake is known for boating, fishing, swimming, birdwatching, stargazing and classic Adirondack lake life.



On the nearby mainland, guests will find two popular restaurants and bars, a local general store, hiking and seasonal recreation.



The surrounding Adirondack and Tug Hill region also offers state parks, horseback riding, wineries, hiking trails and other outdoor activities.



Because Grant Island is accessed by boat, bring the food, clothing, medication and personal supplies your group expects to need.



Getting Around:

You do not need to own a boat to stay at Grant Island Main Cottage.



MAINLAND ARRIVAL:



Two mainland parking spaces are included with the reservation.



We meet your group at the designated mainland parking area using the pontoon boat included with your stay.



We help load your belongings, operate the pontoon during the trip to Grant Island, and provide the boat orientation while traveling across the lake.



The boat trip generally takes approximately 5 minutes.

After the orientation, approved operators may use the included pontoon for:



• Transportation between the mainland and Grant Island

All operators must be at least 18 and complete the required livery orientation and documentation.



The pontoon has a maximum capacity of eight people, subject to loading and safety instructions.

Fuel is included with your reservation. When the fuel level becomes low or the tank is empty, contact management and we will refill it.



If your group does not want to operate the included pontoon, management is also available to assist with transportation using another pontoon boat.

Interaction with Guests:
