It was a beautiful houseboat. It had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. It was right on the water where our charter could pick us up right from the houseboat. Definitely will be returning in the future!

This place was perfect for me and my 3 sons in law. After a long day of fishing, sitting on the back porch for drinks and watching the boats go by was just right.

Great spot for fishing folks

Awesome back deck, you can fish right off the back. Bring extra toilet paper. Couldn’t figure out how to turn on outside hose. Plenty of room, big kitchen.

Fantastic!!!

Pictures are a very accurate depiction of the facilities. Very clean, well maintained, well appointed houseboat. There were seven of us and we never felt crowded. Three recliners were fantastic! Ice machine was a huge bonus for fishing. Had everything you needed for a perfect stay! Very highly recommend this houseboat!

Nice but!

The owner was very nice but communications was very difficult. The houseboat was really nice but the small things inside really brought down my ability to say it was great. No toaster, oven doesn’t work properly, things like that. The beds were ok, the kitchen, beside the stove, was good to cook in. The: Shower is awesome, the location for fishing was incredible, if some of the small items that make a good place to stay a great one I certainly would raise my rating.

the inside is nice , but the cooking and drink wear is very poor. the skillets need to be done away with, some had rust covering them and not usable. Didn't see any cookie sheets for food prep. If you drink coffee you better bring your own coffee cups , only one real coffee cup and two tea cups. You are giving one towel and one wash cloth which is left on each bed . The TV didn't work and there were three 55 gal drums filled with something on deck where it was hard to get around and tie your boat up, right in the way. If you have anything bigger than a small bay boat you probably need to book another house boat it is very hard to park at.

About the host

Hosted by Joe Tumminello

Host profile image
I have been fishing in Venice LA for over 30 years. My partners and I are avid fisherman and hunters (aka "Hunter Gatherers") and have fished or hunted all over the US as well as Canada, Mexico, and the Grand Caymans and there is no place better than Venice, LA!

Why they chose this property

This property is located in a prime spot in the Venice Marina and has been completely renovated and decorated by outdoorsman for outdoorsman. We like to stay in nice places when we travel so we want to make sure this is one of the nicest (if not the nicest) rentals in Venice.

What makes this property unique

Not many houseboats in Venice Marina have Wi-Fi, but this one does as we understand that while you might be here for pleasure, the grind doesn’t always stop. There is also a wine cooler for those of us who enjoy a nice glass of wine in the evening after a long day of fishing or hunting.
