Unique experience. Boat was nice. Bed was comfy. Getting in and out of the boat was challenging. Boat ride was nice but not much to see. Feeding the ducks fun.Overall a good experience. Would I do it again? Time will tell.

It is a fun alternative to conventional hotel/motel stays. Beautiful waking up on Catskill Creek with as much room as a small hotel room, including 2 double beds plus a dining table that can convert to a bed.

Great overnight stay

My family had a fun and unique time on the Red Coral. We fed ducks from the cockpit, swam in Catskill Creek, caught sunfish and catfish from the swim platform and had a great sunset cruise. And below deck we had all the creature comforts of home. In particular, thank you Captain AJ, for the hospitality.

First time for everything

Never thought of staying on a boat before: nice little experience. Watching the creek water was calming (after the rain stopped), the cabin was cozy and the bed comfortable.

One of our best weekend trips in NY!

We have not stopped telling our friends about this trip. Melissa and AJ were super responsive & the location was amazing. We loved kayaking, and exploring the local town. Ate really well at some local spots (Feast & Floret, Willa, Hemlock) and had a fun night at Avalon Lounge. Will definitely return, already looking fwd to our next weekend on the boat!

We had a great time

Great location for walking to town. The kids loved everything about our stay. Feeding the ducks, finding things in all the secret storage areas, showering in the tiny bathroom and more. It was convenient having homemade ice cream and a good restaurant nearby too. All in all a relaxing and enjoyable experience for all. Hosts are lovely and accommodating and marina is quiet and laid back.

Renting a Yacht

what a fabulous getaway idea! to be right on the water - fishing, kayaking, eating, drinking... there is a nice restaurant/bar with a patio overlooking the water that was very nice and convenient as well as the showers and the pool. We trailered our motorcycles with us and were able to enjoy ourselves immensely

Yacht stay on Catskill Creek

The yacht was clean and well maintained but had a slightly dated appearance. The stairs to enter were daunting but we managed them without difficulty, all of us being in our 60’s, and reasonably fit. Melissa was a charming host and answered any questions we had. The yacht contained anything we could want, great shower, restaurant on the premises, walking distance to town. It was an excellent halfway point to meet up with my sister from PA and us from Cape Cod, MA! Thanks, Melissa, for the nice stay.
