If you are looking for a unique and economical way to enjoy a boat stay, this is it. It is a version of RV camping but on the water. The boat is older so has quirks but if you can camp in a pop up camper you can handle this accommodation. We had a great experience at ‘Take a break in nature’! Kevin was very responsive to inquiries and helpful.

Owner had some folks staying at the big house and they blared music both nights we were there, so that took away from the “nature” aspect some, but we saw dolphins, feral hogs, alligators, several species of birds. Otherwise really enjoyed this property. There were dishes in the sink, trash in the trash can inside the boat, and groceries leftover from the previous guests so that made me question cleanliness a bit, but the sheets for the bed were put away in a drawer so I decided they were probably clean. The drive back to the property passes through a powerline right-of-way which has created a disturbance regime that supports many prairie plant species, if you’re into that.
