Amazing experience

This was my first "floating house" experience and I'm so excited to go back and bring my kids. The marina is beautiful, small, quiet, and all the patrons were so nice. There was a calm family vibe, especially at night with kids in the pool and patrons at the bar. I loved seeing the sunset and sunrise on the little patio area on my house. I was not prepared for having my own shower (this was a great thing!) so I gave the written description 4 stars only to point out that it is a little confusing. The hot water was wonderful. The electric outlets in the unit were a little iffy-- everything worked fine the first night but then no fans would work (but chargers did). Super first world problem that did not really affect my experience. I completely recommend this style of get away if you need moments of freedom and solitude like I did. I came back to the northeast feeling very restored!

Great stay

The actual houseboat we rented was out for service so we were upgraded. The boat was clean and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and helpful with pointing out restaurants nearby. Would definitely stay here again.
