You didn't fill out your profile. Are you thinking of diving from the Canadian side or American side?
The 2200 is to hire the entire boat for 3 days. Most of the dive shops will do walk ons.
I dive from Rockport & Brockville on the Canadian side.
The St. Lawrence has some of the best fresh water wreck diving in the world.

If you want to do 3 days on a liveaboard, I know an operator that does it for roughly $180 per day per person incl. food. Not much better than camping in terms of sleeping arrangements on the boat but the food was really good. We averaged just over 3 dives per day.
Helen @ Abuc's has a 2 tank dive package incl. lodging and breakfast and lunch for $150 cdn per day per person based upon double occupancy.
We've managed $300 for 3 days of diving incl. shore dives two years in a row now. There are deals to be found!

There is some free shore diving from Alexandria Bay, NY. It's an easy shore walk in. What's nice is that you can find artifacts there. Of course, you can grab some charters on the American Side with a few operators. Some notable dives like the Keystorm, America come to mind. The Roy A. Jodrey is an amazing deep wreck. Contact Hunts Diving as well as Dan Humble's shop on the Canadian side.

I did my AOW in July at Brockville, On. It was a great experience! I think the water was 74 degrees F all the way down to 93'. The current was cool too. if you let go of the Mooring line you were gone.....I know what a flag must feel like. I never saw so many cars with dive flag bumpers stickers in my life. I'm going to go there again for sure.

Dove with Abucs scuba this summer http://www.divebrockville.com/ from the Canadian side. Some great diving and allot less than $2200 for three days. They also do a package deal with multiple days of diving and lodging at the local Econo Lodge.
Water temp was about 65deg in mid September, vis was probably 60-70 feet (hard to guage it when you are used to 15-20).
