A very neat place to check out in Alexandria Bay, it offers a wealth of history of the local area and some nationally known pastimes as well. They are tucked away off the main drag, so you definitely should venture over and check the museum out. There is no admission charge, but donations are graciously accepted.

A neat little piece of history with exhibits on the history of the store (ca. 1880's I believe), and some local boat makers from the 1930's.
