A great Fall break in Boston
This was our first visit to Boston, and we wanted to try something different. The houseboat was great. We walked like 40 miles in the 4-5 days we were there. The house boat was located in a very quiet area and the water was so peaceful. We were traveling with three kids; 8-12. We'd highly recommend!
