The Thousand Islands Tourism Council is currently undertaking a refresh of the 1000 Islands destination brand. As part of this process, we want to hear from the people who know the region best. Your perspectives will help us better understand what makes the 1000 Islands distinctive, what residents value most about the area, and how the destination should be represented in the years ahead.

The survey should take approximately 5–7 minutes to complete.

Thank you for sharing your perspective.
