Highway 95 was an 11.4-kilometre (7.1 mi), two-lane highway that travelled in a generally north–south direction across Wolfe Island. At its southern end at Point Alexandria, the route connected with New York State Route 12E at Cape Vincent via the private summer-operated Horne's Ferry.
Of the several islands that make up Frontenac Islands, only three (Wolfe Island, Howe Island, and Simcoe Island ranked in descending order of year-round resident population) have substantial permanent resident populations, and regularly-scheduled or on-demand marine ferry service provides year-round vehicle and emergency services access to those islands.
The route began at 2nd Line Road, immediately west of the ferry connection to Simcoe Island. From there it travelled east, passing through Marysville where it connected with Highway 95 and the summer ferry to Kingston, named the Wolfe Islander III; the ferry docks further east during the winter months and Dawson Point.
