Houseboat was spotless, the location felt safe and the check in instructions were detailed and clear. Our family loved the convenience of the location, and what is better than being right on the water?! We were keeping it easy for the brief stay and ate all meals out, however, the houseboat appeared to have everything should you choose to prepare meals. There was notable odor when windows port-side were open and we weren’t sure if it was from the water or the docked boats. But we found opening just the harbor facing windows improved that. We had a weekend in Oct with 80 temps and what a perfect place on the rooftop deck to enjoy the sunset and taking in all of the harbor lights!I would stay here again and again!!

Girls weekend

The boat was great! Location was amazing not only close to so many things to do, but also in the marina. Boat was very clean and decor all updated. BHW rentals was very responsive too. Highly recommend, would definitely stay there again!

Fun Family Stay

My husband and I took our two boys for a long weekend. This was an excellent place to stay. They had a blast staying on a boat, and we loved being so close to everything. We could easily walk everywhere and get the T to Fenway, the Science Museum, and Harvard. It was great having a full-sized kitchen and more space than a hotel in the area. We enjoyed having dessert and coffee on the rooftop and enjoying the views.

Best rental ever!! And it's a boat!!

This houseboat has it all!! Great interior setup. Lots of huge windows. Location to die for. Fully stocked kitchen. Awesome upper deck sitting area to watch the sunrise with coffee or sunset before heading to dinner. A bed that i could actually sleep well in... might have been the gentle rocking. Did i mention the incredible location!! Easy walking distance, minutes, to everything from great restuarants, attractions, parks, everything!! And you have to try the breakfast sandwiches at Sunny Girl Cafe across the street. I fully enjoyed my stay and already looking for an excuse to return!!

Incredible!!

Amazing rental! It was clean, comfortable, convenient, newly renovated with incredible location and views!! Watched an amazing sunrise from the roofdeck :) AC worked good, they even thought of all the minor conveniences of a stay- from charger to pantry travel size condiments, ample paper towels, trash bags, and TP provided… as well as clean and cozy sheets towels and blankets and pillows :) Customer service/Naomi was stellar- answered every time I called and super helpful! Quiet and peaceful surroundings, safe, and close to so many dining/tourist options of North End or Seaport district. Had no trouble finding a parking spot at the Lewis wharf lot parking lot for overnight/24 hr option. 10/10!! Can’t wait to re-book. Thank you!!!!

Super fun, and so convenient. Loved it!

We had considered booking a hotel, but on a holiday weekend, every hotel had a two-night minimum (we were coming in for just one night, to enjoy the city and catch a Sox game). It was a surprise to find Endless Summer, which had availability for the one night we needed. Our initial reaction: "wait, this is a BOAT?". We gave it a minute of thought, decided that nothing could be more fun/adventurous, and went for it.The location is SUPERB. A literal one-minute walk to the North End of Boston, with its dozens of authentic Italian restaurants and incredible pastry shops (Mike's? Modern? The debate is ongoing... that's up to you to decide on, but we prefer Bova's). You're also about two minutes away from Long Wharf, where we took a Ghosts & Graveyards trolley tour. The location in general is easy to get to, super-safe, and gives you an incredible panoramic view of East Boston (and Logan Airport, for planespotting). Endless Summer is as beautiful inside as the photos indicate, with somewhat recent renovations and every amenity of home tucked into a cozy and clean houseboat. The queen bed in the main bedroom is as nice as my own at home. The Lovesac sofa in the living area was great for my kids. The kitchen came fully stocked with utensils, plates and glasses, and even some food and beverage items (which we left for the next guests). Communication with the host, BHW, was outstanding. We'd stay here again.

My husband, daughter and her fiancé came for the Hyrox competition at the convention center. It was amazing! The weather was perfect. We barely had down time but took advantage of every minute on top of the houseboat. Our last night was an extra treat with fireworks right outside! The host was awesome letting us check out about an hour later so my daughter could shower after the race. The only issue we had was the parking people were very sketchy. We arrived late and it was dark. Some guy gave us a parking stub that was a problem when we checked out. The guy said our ticket stub was “strange “ and wanted to charge us over 100 . I would definitely recommend looking into this issue. Other than that we highly recommend this unique experience

What a fun place to stay! We stayed with our two sons 10 and 13, it was great. We played cards on the deck overlooking the beautiful view, kids slept on the couch and that was fine with them. It was fun seeing the tide come in and out.

Incredible location and lovely accommodations

Would totally stay here again. We had a wonderful time. A few suggestions to make it even better: 1. More blankets. My friend who is elderly froze sleeping on the couch. 2. Provide a welcome package of info including how to access the wifi. 3. Microwave to reheat the ample portions of our meals from local restaurants we were never able to finish.

BOS harbor

Truly a unique experience that we enjoyed very much. Took water taxi from BOS Logan to Long Wharf. Short walk to Lewis Pier from there. Took the train from Aquarium back to airport. Easy and free bus connection to/from airport both to water terminal and trains. Took water ferry to Hingham, USS Constitution. We walked everywhere else we wanted to go, Quincy Market, TD Garden for Celtics game and Little Italy for fantastic food. Will be returning to do this all again, it was a lot of fun especially if you don’t mind walking One tip: do not close pocket doors all the way or it comes off track and then someone on other side has to let you out. All and all a wonderful adventure!
