Beautiful views and very nice houseboat

My sisters and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the General Lee. The owner made sure we had everything we needed. The view was gorgeous. The location is within walking distance to both shopping and restaurants. If we are ever back in the area the General Lee will be our first choice of where to stay.

We really enjoyed staying on the General Lee! The houseboat was clean and very well appointed. Karen met us on arrival, walked us through the houseboat and offered some great recommendations for breakfast (Chowders) and dinner (The Station). We are planning a return visit in May!

Wonderful vacation on Houseboats at River Watch

Our stay on the The General Lee was absolutely wonderful. The Houseboat was neat, clean, and perfect for a relaxing time. The sunset views front the top deck, simply amazing! Enjoyed watching all the wildlife from the screen porch and top deck. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It's a plus that we were within walking distance to town. We plan to stay here again and certainly recommend the Houseboats at River Watch.

Excellent location, fabulous views and very peaceful!

Loved staying at General Lee in 2018. Coffee on the screened-in deck each morning is such a peaceful way to start your day. Watched bald eagles, ospreys, herons and gulls come awake and go about their business. Beds are comfy. Kitchen is well-equipped. The owner, Karen, is great to work with and responsive to questions on any topic. Internet service is good. While all the houseboats here are really nice, the General Lee has the best view of the marsh across and both upstream/downstream in Sipio Creek. Watched shrimp boats come and go, ate great food in Apalach and enjoyed our second stay (we stayed here in 2017 as well). Looking forward to coming back in 2019.

Nature Experience

The Houseboat was amazing, relaxing , walking distance to historical town. There is shopping , restaurants , bookstores and boating. The St George Island beach is 30 minutes away . Nature right out your screen porch or open dock with birds , fish , alligators and huge turtles. Marshlands right across from Houseboat . There are great views sunsets with Shrimp-boats going past . Abundance of fresh seafood from the Gulf . We will be back !!!

Relaxing getaway!

We had a relaxing, long weekend on the General Lee! The weather was beautiful which allowed us to maximize our use of the screened in area and observation deck. The sunrises were breathtaking! We enjoy craft beer, and Oyster City Brewing was a short walk away. This was a nice plus for us! Overall, our stay was enjoyable and different than the normal accommodations we would stay in. If we’re ever back in Apalachicola, we would look to stay here again.

Needed to get away

Only reason there are 4 stars for cleanliness is there are sugar ants and the screens on the back porch are buggy. I’m not sure you could do anything about that situation since you are on a boat in the water. This did not bother us. We loved every evening and morning sitting on the porch watching the manatees play. The shrimp boats go by which was really cool. There is also that upper deck which lets you see farther. We only used the bed in the master. It was clean and comfortable. You have to be prepared with the bedrooms, bathrooms, and hallway for the small house/camper type living. The kitchen was furnished very well. The grounds were secure. We took a day trip to St George Island and we spent a day walking downtown. Lots of nice stores. Would stay here again.

Relaxing Water Views

My husband and two daughters took a midweek trip to the Forgotten Coast. We were thrilled with the houseboat. Karen was a great host. The water was mesmerizing in every direction. Our daughters had fun fishing and walking all over the quaint town. We enjoyed relaxing on the decks and porches. Karen’s boat was perfect for our little vacation.

We enjoyed our week at the General Lee. It is so peaceful being on the water with beautiful views all around. The wild life is wonderful entertainment from the upper and lower screened deck. Our host was courteous and respectful and on hand to help if needed. We had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The location is wonderful as you can walk to some of the best seafood you will ever eat. We would love to come back next year.

Lovely Host and View

Karen's houseboats are fabulous. They are the perfect spot for one or two couples to stay, watch the sunset, and then find a bite to eat in downtown Apalach. Karen is very pleasant and accommodating (so much so that I'm staying in her houseboats two more times). Thanks for a relaxed home away from home.

Acerca del anfitrión

Anfitrión: Karen Hoff

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
Although a native of Michigan, I spent the last 30 years in New Jersey where I have restored an 1850s Victorian and raised 2 sons who currently reside in Atlanta and Austin, TX. After retiring from a 30 year banking career as a Commercial Lending Officer, I came to Apalachicola for a vacation and fell in love with the quaint unpretentious aura of the town. As a history buff, the area presents opportunities to explore museums and historic homes. My favorite is the Historic Homes Tour which is sponsored by Trinity Episcopal Church during the first weekend in May. Although I have spent years enjoying the Atlantic Ocean in New Jersey, the beaches on St. George Island are ranked #3 in the country and only a 15 minute drive away. On St George Island, I have experienced the white sandy beaches of the Florida panhandle and taken a tour of the St George lighthouse with spectacular views from the top. On the island, the State Park offers an opportunity to enjoy either the Apalachicola Bay or the Gulf of Mexico and has limited crowds, plenty of parking and very clean facilities.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

The interior living/dining area is fully surrounded by windows to allow viewing the sights from the comfort of your home. Downtown Apalachicola with its shops, art galleries and restaurants are just a short walk away so there is no need to use your car to enjoy the town's charm.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Being directly on the water and moored at the end of the dock, the General Lee is in a prime location to enjoy panoramic views of both sunrises and sunsets, the full moon reflecting off the water and an unobstructed view of a wide variety of water activity.
