I'm on a boat!
This is a houseboat that is permanently docked in the marina. There are others, but this seemed the best. So here is the good, the bad, and the things I wish I had known. The good: This houseboat is probably the nicest of all of the ones available. It has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. There is an upper sun deck that lets you see the entire marina and an awesome sunset, provided the weather cooperates. It is clean, two TV's with full cable, a small kitchen, and a nice front room/dining area. Mike was really nice and very helpful. The bad: During our stay, the boat was actually listing to one side. They knew of the problem and had a plan to fix it, but it was not gonna happen for us. I would have thought some discount would be in order, but it was never offered. They gave us a pass, but it's a busy marina and we sometimes had to park in another lot. Wish I knew: It's a long way from the parking area to the boat.They have little "garden" type carts for your luggage and things. Ice makers in the fridges are not connected, so they have bagged ice at the office. There is no fishing nor swimming in the marina. Unless you have a boat or a charter, it's tough to find a good place to fish without traveling a long way. There are two centrally located grills to use, and they are not allowed on the boats. Summary: A nice stay, very unique, great sunset, price seems a little high for it though. The staff is great, parking area is small, and quite at night.

Fantastic environment to relax and have some fun with friend. Great accommodations and atmosphere !
All three of us agreed that staying there beats any hotel by far. Super nice people at the marina and just can't say enough good things about staying there. Not 1 negative to report. That is coming from a retired airline employee that lived in hotels for a decade. Awesome!! Thanks for the cool memories!!
