How to Get Here
United States / Canada Border
The St. Lawrence River borders Canada and can be crossed by vehicle via the bridges in Ogdensburg, NY/Prescott, Canada and Massena, NY/Cornwall, Canada. Border crossings are strictly enforced by
land and water.
We urge our Canadian friends to make sure they have the proper documentation for their visit; the Canada Border Services Agency has a helpful site that lets you know before you go…
