The Edmonton Sun just did a story on Dark Island..



"DARK ISLAND, N.Y. -- It's hard to know what to pack when you're going to spend the night in the Royal Suite of a castle as its reigning queen on an island in the St. Lawrence River.

Do you take the tiara or leave it at home? Do you instead channel your inner Grace Kelly and include a scarf to throw over your head paired with sunglasses to evoke just the right air of mystery and sophistication?

All of these thoughts were swirling in my head as the boat from Schermerhorn Harbor, N.Y., near Alexandria Bay made its way across the St. Lawrence River towards Dark Island. But it wasn't long before majestic Singer Castle came into view with its turrets rising tall above the pines. I was checking into a 28-room castle as its only guest. The only other person staying on the island was the castle's historian, Judy Keeler, who would also be my tour guide."
