My husband and I took our two granddaughters, 9 and 7 to Boston to celebrate the 250th anniversary of our country and to see the tall ships. We were in a perfect spot and the kids loved the houseboat adventure.

Things that were wonderful: the experience of being in the harbor, rich history of the naval yard, host communication and the location - which is a short Lyft, ferry ride or walking distance to just about anywhere in Boston.Areas that could use some improving: Overall cleanliness - the bathroom, carpets, furniture and linens could all use a deep cleaning or updates. Tech - the LR TV had 5 remotes but not many channels available, the bedroom TV didn’t seem to work at all. It was overall a good experience, but I would choose a different location next time.

The place is in a great location and fun to have as a home base. However for the price I would think the place could be improved with little cost. The bathroom towels and shower curtain are old and need to be replaced. The curtain is stiff and is hard to ensure water doesn’t go on the floor. The shower valve is not user friendly and extremely hard to adjust. We brought our 10yo grandson and after 9 miles of walking he wanted to watch a little TV. There were five remotes, two had dead batteries and very few options of anything to watch. The complex configuration needs to be improved. Anyway we travel a lot and I’m not wanting to bash this place but hope improvements are made for the next renters.

A Lovely Stay!

I stayed here with friends for my graduation. This was such a unique place right outside of Boston. The houseboat was clean and had everything I could want. Boston is close and the parking was convenient.
