About this property

Fun houseboat. Walk to Boston attractions WIFI

Experience Boston from the unique perspective of your own floating home! Nestled in a protected marina in Boston Harbor, our houseboat is fully equipped with all the comforts and amenities of home!
The boat is fully air conditioned in the summer and heated during the winter. The covered front deck has a table and chairs and the sundeck above has outdoor seating. Free Wi-Fi is included in your rental. We are located in the Charlestown Marina. Please note the loft space listed as second bedroom is best suited for children ( although I have had adults sleep up there) because you can not stand up in the space due to a low ceiling.

Accessible via water taxi, car, or taxi. Walk to the USS Constitution, Bunker Hill , TD Garden and the North End. MBTA water shuttle is a short walk. UBER readily available. Parking is available but must be reserved ahead or spaces can be full.

Located in a very secure and gated marina, our houseboat is just minutes away from downtown Bostons' most popular attractions; Fanueil Hall/Quincy Market, the North End, the New England Aquarium, the Children's Museum and the Boston Convention Center. Our convenient location makes it easy for you reach points of interest.

Please note we charge a $59 damage waiver that covers you for accidental damage up to $1500. Homeaway calls this an administrative fee. Rates differ per season. Put your dates in for the accurate quote.
Travelling nurses please note. We rent our houseboats from November 1 to March 1 for $1500 per month plus electricity.
