So we stayed 4 out of 5 nights.. the first 3 were ok we loved the view and being on the water! The 3rd night our power cord burnt up I sent pics to owner and she said they would have to replace it so we could have power again.. we were out all day and came back at 10 pm still didn’t have power! It was completely black in the boat! Food in fridge went bad we were no happy we couldn’t get another hotel booked for that night so we at least got one for the next night! This place could have been great is it was taken care of better and had maintenance that knew anything about boats! We are supposed to get a refund for two nights because for the price we paid to stay we expect a little better!

Hi. The houseboat is well maintained . It was great as you claimed when you arrived. The power cord burnt because you did not follow the rules inside , not to use 2 AC , microwave, hair blower all at the same time as this will cause outage . We called for repair ASAP but you have to remember you stayed on weekend and Labor Day holiday when it’s hard to find serviceman to come. We apologized for this as this could be avoided if you just follow the rules .

This property was horrible to put it mildly and should actually be taken off the sight. The pictures were very deceptive. The place was filthy, with rat droppings everywhere. The electricity kept going out, there is no “deck” as described, one false move and you’re in the ocean! The linens were dirty, it was a disaster, we stayed one of the 3 nights and had to find someone else to go and they refused to refund our money. We have stayed on many house boats and knew what to expect but this was unacceptable!

It was definitely an older boat-which meant mildew. When we first turned on the light, 5 cockroaches scurried around. I attempted to reach the owner but to no avail.

Terrible experience
Thus boat was infested with roaches. The owner was rude and very difficult to work with. This was where we chose to stay on our honeymoon and we had to leave in the middle of the night to find a hotel due to the degree of infestation. instead of apologizing and taking care of the situation the owner called us liars and hung up on me in the middle of our conversation. Terrible experience indeed.
