E-TEN An Elegant Float Home

About this space
Unique living on the water. The stunning 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom E-TEN at Mosquito Creek Marina has a roof top deck offering 360 degree views of the North Shore Mountains and City Skyline. Feel 'away' from the City whilst still only being minutes away from all amenities.
The space
Welcome to the E-TEN, a beautiful, newly renovated fully furnished Float Home at Mosquito Creek Marina.
This is a Scandinavian-Style, 2 floor house with a stunning rooftop patio. The lower level has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and laundry room with washer and dryer.
The main level of the house is made up of an open concept living room and kitchen space.
Off the kitchen is a small outdoor patio and the stairs that will lead you up to the rooftop deck giving you 360 degree views of the North Shore Mountains, the City Skyline and the beautiful Marina.

- The Main Bedroom has a king size bed frame with 2 Twin XL mattresses to allow for very comfortable sleep. Various pillows and comforters are provided for you to find the ‘perfect’ sleeping arrangement.

- The 2nd Bedroom has a Twin Size bed, a small work area and a 40" smart TV for your streaming requirements.

- The laundry room comes with a washer and dryer. Eco friendly laundry detergent is provided. Please note that the dryer is a condensation dryer and the water tank needs to be emptied after use.

- The bathroom has towels and a hair dryer. Shampoo, conditioner & bodywash available. Forgot some things? Not to worry, the bathroom is stocked with toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss as well as some female hygiene products.

- The living room has an extremely comfortable couch. Log into your streaming providers on the 55” Smart TV to enjoy a cozy night.

- The dining room table can easily fit 6 people and could also be used as a work area during the day.

- The kitchen is fitted with modern stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and comes fully stocked with cooking utensils. You will find oil, salt & pepper, spices, coffee & tea.

- Weather permitting you can bring out the outdoor furniture and spend some quality time on the rooftop deck enjoying the magnificent views.

- There is a small shed that could easily accommodate sports gear such as bikes, snowboards or skies.
Guest access
You have access to all parts of the house.
Other things to note:

Marina living is a very unique experience. The float homes are nestled close to each other and because of that excessive noise, loud parties or large gatherings are not an option.
As well, E-TEN is a float home, so it sits on a body of water, which means there is some ongoing movement to the house, sometimes a bit more during big weather events or king tides. Something to keep in mind if you are prone to motion sickness.
Please note that due to insurance requirements the booking party has to be over the age of 25.

Beautiful house on the water
Absolutely immaculate and well appointed houseboat in a wonderful location close to the ferry and lonsdale restaurants. Great views from the rooftop deck! Felt very safe in the marina and appreciated the easy parking so we could easily move around the greater Vancouver area. Wonderful host. Five star visit!
