It was clean, location was very good if you want to be beside a loud Bar.
Be ready for everything being an extra charge.. the owners are very picky even about where you park! And when we called to ask they were super rude! When it comes to allowing you privacy forget it!! There are cameras on every corner of the house & it is way off the main road?? There is even a camera on the upper deck where unless you are Spiderman You could not access!! It was very creepy & I felt like we where being watched!! They had a guy come by every day we were there said he was working on something but I never saw him working?!? And forget sleeping in They had the yard mowed at 7am
Melissa,
We apologize you feel you were inconvenienced with the internet repair. We had a lightning strike and it took out 2 of the 4 ports on the modem provided by our Internet provider. It affected our security cameras and our emergency phone provided to our vacationing tenants. We feel that is important to get working as soon as we can get the maintenance people out to repair it. In the agreement you agreed to online you were notified that these things may happen and can be a slight inconvenience as was the case during your stay. I believe they were inside to confirm some wiring for only a few minutes.
We charge a low rate for the use of the Boathouse. It is very competitive in our area. We inform everyone on the website before they book of the boat docking and the pet fees which are extra. They are extra because most people do not bring boats or pets. The extra costs to us are absorbed in the low fees for them. The website says:
Boat Parking: Parking is only available on the west side of the dock and there is no lift for you to use as the slips are rented. Boat parking will be included with overnight dock rentals and allowed only on the west side of the 110' pier. Fee is $20 per night minimum. Reservations required with the property manager. You may be assigned a specific location. If storms threaten remove your boat to the marina or put it on its trailer. You can park a trailer on the parking pad if you have a boat included with dock rental. Please contact the manager w/details for additional parking that must be assigned.
We also let you know in advance that we have a docking fee in the agreement that you signed online:
3. Dock lifts and the east side of all piers: These are rented to others and do not park boats there or block those slips or the dock.
4. The fee for parking boats on our docks is one dollar per foot per day with a $20 minimum. Contact management for reservations.
When you booked you signed an agreement online further confirming our conditions for renting our vacation property. It included the fees again but you did not let us know about the pets at that time. You did ultimately notify us about having 2 pets. At the time you were billed for the pet fees you told us you were just going to launch your boat and trailer it because you had not decided if you were going to dock your boat at our property.
You then docked your boat at the property and we are hereby requiring our $60 boat docking fee.
Sincerely,
Boathouse manager
Will stay again!!!
Great little place, very clean. Awesome view of lake and boat ramp if you like to people watch. Location is perfect for getting anything you might need. Highly recommend it if you just want a nice peaceful stay on the lake.

Location
The Boathouse is a waterfront home at the bulkhead located on the south shore of 24,000 acre Lake Conroe. Several of the many restaurants are accessible from Lake Conroe by boat. We are walking distance to many stores, parks, shops, spas bars and various cuisines. Mexican food is prevalent and there is great sushi, Steaks, Craw-fish, sandwiches, Italian, Hamburgers, Seafood, German, Asian and country cooking. There is a National Forest a 20 minute drive from the waterfront boathouse. Onsite we also have a couple of RV Camp Sites for rent that have 30-50 Amp electric service with water, sewer and Internet. $50 per night.
We love the Boathouse and we know you will too!
