Lovely and unique

Such a quiet, lovely setting. It was a bit of a commute into downtown Boston harbor, but it was by ferry so it was fun! Accommodations were spotless and comfortable. Would stay there again.

I got some much-needed rest. Thank you, Deborah and Sherry!

The booking process was easy. Checking in and out was super easy. The waves were a bit rough at times but the houseboat was so stable that the waves didn't bother me. The stay provided me with some much-needed rest. I recommend this houseboat.

Wonderful escape

The location puts you within walking distance of all the basic necessities: coffee. Lots of great places to eat nearby and a short distance from the ferry as well if you want to venture out. The house boat is cozy and comfortable and the marina is calm and quiet. Perfect for relaxing or catching up on some much needed rest. I highly recommend this location and will definitely return next time we are in town.

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.

The boat was small but very well appointed for our family. It was wonderful going to sleep and waking up on the water. Our boys loved the novelty! I only wish that our stay had been longer so that we could have explored around by foot more.

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!
