The house was perfectly setup as the description stated. Very charming! The parking posed to be a bit of a problem. The neighbors in slip 8 didn’t get the memo about the quiet hours from 9p-9a because they were up well after 3am making lots of noise and turning lights on and off. Overall, we had a great stay!

Overall, the accommodations were very satisfactory. Unfortunately several things were missing: no remote for the tv and no information as to how to work it manually, no detailed information on the operation of the heater(s), no “member”parking pass was available which required moving the car in public spaces every 3 hours, no dish towel to dry washed dishes. Generally information provided was incomplete, pertained to another accommodation, or missing entirely. The bed was comfortable and appliances were well provided. The boat has been well furnished and is quite pleasing. We did not use the outside deck due to very cold conditions - unusual for SF. While we were fine, this rental should not allow ambulatory-disabled or elderly visitors.
Parasols provide privacy - charming and utilitarian.

Great view

We are in our 80s so getting suitcases, etc down the long dock and into the boat was a challenge. Once on the boat we loved the view and seals, pelicans, terns, etc. Had a great time.

We had a magical stay in our floating love nest on the Bay. Our friends were staying at the inn above the tides and we were so happy to find this spot nearby to stay. It’s a proper boat but has all the amenities of a house. I especially loved the bathtub. We enjoyed having our coffee on the deck outside while watching the seals and aquatic birds.

Just what I needed to reintegrate after a week of device-free personal growth. I can tell the description has been updated to reflect concerns from previous reviews, so I felt like I was well-informed of what to expect. Several seal sightings from the back deck were an added bonus!

This was a surprise trip for my partner and it did not disappoint! We had such an amazing time and such a unique experience. We spent each evening on the back patio watching the sunset and the abundant wildlife. Walking distance to everything! The bed was comfy and we had everything we needed.
