Perfect Houseboat Experience
As a digital nomad I enjoy trying different styles of living. I came across this houseboat and had to give it a try. During my stay I had about every nuance possible in my 7 days. * The host was quick to respond - huge plus *Boat was clean and listing is spot on. For those that like to cook you may want to bring supplies. The basics were provided- plates, utensils, pot and pans. * There is a long walk from car to boat. As mentioned if you have a cart/wagon bring it. * the boat will gently rock - you’re on water. When boats go by or if there is high wind the boat will rock more. I enjoyed this - some may not. * there was an electrical issue at the marina, no fault of owner, and experienced life using a generator. Basics were covered - light, heat/ac, etc. host was responsive during this time as well. I would definitely rent this to try houseboat life or for the new adventure. I’ll be back next time I’m in the area.

Kenny communicated well with us and accommodated our extra requests and time constraints. The gate codes were outdated but I was able to get them from other boaters.

Great Time!
This is a really nice little houseboat! It slept four adults very comfortably. The location is absolutely beautiful! Just be aware that it is a bit of a hike from parking to the boat, so bring a wagon to haul your luggage. Unfortunately, it was freezing when we were there, but inside the houseboat was very warm and cozy. Kenny was always available by phone when we had questions. I would definitely return when it's warmer so I could take full advantage of the upper deck and water!
