Such a nice boat
Me and a friend so enjoyed our stay. Rocked to sleep in comfy bed and pull out sofa. Only hiccup is that there are no late check ins. That is stated in other rules.

A friend once told be she wanted to live on a houseboat. She was recently diagnosed with a terminal illness and I knew I had to get her to a houseboat for an adventure. After I a little research I found this property and knew it was just what she needed. It’s a beautiful location with amazing access to local attractions and fabulous dining. We signed up for parking right at the marina and Uber’d to dinner. There is a Whole Foods not too far from the boat with great parking. The biast was peaceful and relaxing with the gentle rocking. This was definitely a great choice and we enjoyed every minute. I would highly recommend this experience.

Charming Houseboat
This houseboat was perfect for a few days stay in Boston. We loved being on the water and exploring the Charlestown area. The location was convenient - just a couple blocks walk and we were on the Freedom Trail.

Just as advertised, and very comfortable. Wonderful communication with the owner and especially Sherrie, who manages the check-in process. She changed her schedule around to support our arrival and was very informative about everything. I highly recommend this house-boat.

Amazing vacation stay!
Wanted to try something different than a regular hotel room and this was it! Short walk to Freedom Trail and Hop on Hop off tour stop for USS Constitution. Seeing the city skyline at night - watching the sunset - and it is in a secure gated area - all great perks! The greeter/check in person was very friendly and the host/hostess easy to communicate with!

A perfect respite in the city
Waking in comfort on the water and sitting on your deck of choice to welcome the sun was such a pleasant way to visit Boston. A quick walk brings you on a walk along the waterfront and the “T” ferry is a pleasant way to cross the harbor to the Aquarium/ Fanieul Hall area. Check in and coordination were beyond wonderful. Highly recommend.
