I would recommend staying at The Reel Time on the Flint. Beautiful boathouse in a convenient location not far from downtown Bainbridge. What a blessing to wake up and be right on the water with a picturesque view. Our days were filled with sunshine and long talks on the back deck with a short drive to dinner at Susie & Sams Steakhouse. We had everything we needed right at our fingertips.

We had an amazing stay on the houseboat this weekend while celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. Everything was clean, comfortable, and truly relaxing—exactly what we were hoping for.We especially enjoyed the fishing, spending time on the screened-in porch, and just unwinding in such a peaceful environment. It was the perfect setting to slow down and enjoy the moment together.Darlene was a wonderful host and a great communicator from start to finish, which made the experience even better. We would absolutely recommend this stay and would love to return!

It was everything we could’ve wanted! The host had everything we needed and more!! It was so peaceful. We fished the whole time that we weren’t sitting on the porch enjoying the view! We loved every minute of our stay there! We will definitely be back!

Life on a houseboat

I am curious about living on a houseboat and wanted to see what it is like. This one was perfect. Absolutely beautiful place, looks just like the pictures, we were relaxed and enjoyed every minute of it. Darlene was very responsive to my questions and the owner and other boat owners very friendly.

Stillness Rules

Nice change from a motel room. Spacious and lots of amenities. Kitchen items if you want to cook in but you are only 6 minutes from downtown Bainbridge. Clean and cozy. Early mornings on porch overlooking water are quiet and peaceful while filled with birdsong. Very comfortable.

Best Ever

The serenity of our houseboat stay was noteworthy, requiring only our presence. Host Darlene provided everything necessary, including cookware, popcorn, tea, and numerous other amenities too extensive to list. We savored leisurely breakfasts and coffee on early mornings. The screened-in rear porch offered an ideal setting for relaxation, accompanied by soft music streamed through Alexa. The fishing experience was enjoyable and calming, set to soothing music. We particularly appreciated the visits from Abigail, the alligator we named, and her daughter Abbi to the porch, valuing their company without direct interaction. We cannot wait to returned in October.
