Romantic Castle on a Heart-Shaped Island in the Thousand Islands Region

Boldt Castle, a breathtaking architectural gem, sits on Heart Island in the heart of the Thousand Islands region along the U.S.-Canada border. Built by millionaire hotel magnate George C. Boldt in the early 1900s, the castle was meant as a gift of love for his wife, Louise. Tragically, construction was halted when she suddenly passed away, leaving the castle abandoned for decades. Today, the restored estate welcomes visitors with its romantic history, grand halls, and stunning island views. The Thousand Islands archipelago itself offers over 1,800 islands, each with unique charm—ranging from quaint cottages to historic lighthouses. Join us as we explore Boldt Castle’s dreamy past, Heart Island’s beauty, and the surrounding wonders of the Thousand Islands—an unforgettable journey through love, loss, and timeless elegance.
