Fun stay

Place was very clean and organized. Recently updated, everything was appealing to the eye at first glance(one could nitpick the upgrades, but that’s not what we were there for). We did not like that the stovetop was cracked when we arrived, and we were not warned ahead of time (we planned to cook, but ended up eating at the restaurant in the marina most meals-it was fantastic). The houseboat was in a great location close to the marina. It was easy to access and the fishing was impressive. Host of the house messaged back quickly. Husband and I felt like this is a perfect spot for a group style vacation or family traveling with kids. The bunks are nice and would accommodate a larger group. Would stay here again.

Don’t expect much.

A no frills rustic fishing cabin, is one thing. This place is much below expectations. Broken stove, no heat, running toilet. Much better options are available in the area.

For the price, i felt like it could have been a little better BUT we had cold air, hot water, and no bugs inside so thats a win for me. When we arrived, it took us a little bit to locate the cabin, i tried messaging the host but finally found it before he responded. So FYI, from the parking lot, walk down the main pier and take a left. I meant to count before we left but I think it was 6 or 7 cabins down on the left. Some of the flooring in the kitchen is raised up so be aware if you're walking barefooted to not stump your toe. The handle to the toilet sticks when flushing and will run continuously so be sure to lift the handle back up after every flush. When removing the sheets from beds, be aware of the screws sticking out from the ladders - when i was removing our sheets, the sheet was caught and when i tried getting it, scratched my hand on the screws (see picture) Also the stovetop is broken (see picture). Overall it was a good stay and i would be willing to stay again if needed.

Nothing fancy but everything you need! The ice machine is a big perk and being able to pull your boat right up to the house. I would most definitely stay here again.

The houseboat was clean and had everything we needed for 3 fishermen just wanting to a place to sleep for the night. The main drawback was that it was difficult for us older guys to board the boat from the dock. I would suggest a ramp from the dock to the boat like many of the other houseboats have.

Cancelled within the 50% refund time There has been no communication about refund, or funds offered. This is a small item that could have been overlooked, otherwise, our stay at this address has been great in previous years. Thanks

Not clean

Houseboat located in Venice Marina. Did not expect anything fancy at this price point, but I always expect a rental to be clean. The sofa smelled of urine. The camp had not been properly cleaned as there was trash and dead roaches on the floor. There was no TV service nor internet service as described. Thankfully the beds were clean and A/C worked…which is the only positive thing I can say. Messaged host the moment we arrived about the issues but did not receive any response until many hours later. Would not recommend
