The boathouse is fully equipt with games and water and lawn toys. We have kayaks and row boats and canoes and some kids fishing stuff. There are rafts and tubes to use in the water.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Philip Amsterdam

Casablanca has been in our family for almost 60 years. The third generation is starting to use the island and learning to love The River. There is nothing like island life to learn to appreciate the surroundings.
In renting the boathouse and occasionally the main house, Casablanca it allows us to off set some of the cost and stay here too. In the short time we have been renting we have met many wonderful people and families that we now call friends and many that make their family memories by coming back to Cherry Island each summer.

Why they chose this property
You can stay on the mainland anytime, come stay on an island and enjoy the river as the locals do, hear the fish jumping and geese landing in the water. Great sleeping on Cherry Island.
We know that you can stay anywhere, we appreciate our guests because they make it possible for us to to be here too.

What makes this property unique
It is a 125 building and if we are available we would like you to come up and tour the main house while you are here. We have plenty of parking on shore for cars and boat trailers. We have been here 60 years and can point you in the right direction no matter what you want to do on your vacation.
