Hello, Grand Travelers! In this video, I share with you the backstory of Boldt Castle located in Alexandria Bay, New York, part of The 1000 Islands region. It is the story of George Boldt who not only chased the American Dream, but found it along with his beloved wife, Louise, by his side. But, as happens with fairytale romances, this one doesn't go as planned.

Welcome to Gate 24 Travel! My husband, Robert, and I are passionate grand travelers who started a travel agency in December 2019 because we wanted to help other grand travelers in their passion for travel too. What is a "Grand Traveler"? Well, we like to use the term to reference anyone who considers himself/herself middle-age or a senior citizen, and LOVES to travel...like us! We are located near Rochester, New York. Our favorite way to vacation is cruising, and our favorite vacation spot is Bermuda. We hope you feel at home here, and can gain something useful for traveling at this stage of life.
Please feel free to check out our Facebook page, too!

Visit it every year, always something new to see. Went there as a child in the 1950s. It was sad. Today it is beautiful, especially the gardens

I completely agree! There is always something new to see. The images I've seen from the years of neglect are astounding. It must have been something to see then, and compare to the now. I love the gardens too! Thank you so much for watching our video, and leaving a nice comment. :) (Melinda)

I live 35 mi from there I wish they would make a movie about this but I know they would have to get permission from the family

Hey, Peter! Someday we may be neighbors. :) My husband would like to retire up that way in about 9 years or so. And I sooooo wish this beautiful, tragic story could be made into a movie. It's so incredibly moving. Thank you for taking the time to watch our video and leaving a comment! :) (Melinda)
