Wife and I made trip around lake Michigan. This was really a great choice, nice quaint little town. Within driving distance to so many things to do. Very relaxing on the water and waking up to beautiful view of Fife lake
Great trip. The boat seemed smaller than what I expected. But very accurate
Unique night out. First time to the greater fife lake area

This was an accidental hit when looking for an overnight stay between Traverse and Albion while traveling with my wife. Overall, it was a really sweet relaxing stay. Weather was flawless, lake was glass, party shop had plenty of wine… Maybe a little pricey for some for what you’re getting (it’s tiny vs motel), but if you’re adventurous it’s pretty neat.
This little houseboat is adorable! It is tiny, but was perfect for my daughter and me. I love Fife Lake, so to stay on this charming little place, letting the waves rock me to sleep was perfect! I would stay there again...a little pricy, but still perfect.

I did not realize until we were there the boat is stationary and dose not move. The big issue is the bathroom it smells all the time. Tried freshener but did not work. We ended up going to traverse for the day. Wich made it nice. Its good for a ne night stay. The lake is beautiful to look at.
