About this property

Vintage "Minnow for 2" Houseboat

This memorable place is anything but ordinary. Most recent getaway added to our Boatel Row right here in Iowa`s only island City. This vintage houseboat captures the heart of the river. She may be a little tiny, but she is a big catch. Let`s reel you in with this unique cozy houseboat that sits right on the water. Complimentary kayak rentals at the lake and we also have a beach area within walking distance. It has one cozy twin bed and a futon. The bathroom has a sink, and all in one toilet/shower, however you can use our modern state of the art bath houses within walking distance.

The Minnow has a record player with vintage 1960`s albums, games, and a retro feel.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
