Thanksgiving Trip

The houseboat was clean with a nice size living and kitchen area. Everything was provided if you wanted to grill or fry fish. The deck was spacious with chairs provided to hang out after a day of fishing while your buddies are cleaning the days catch.

Joat 2 Don't plan on using grill or fish cooker or getting into upper bunks.

Two weeks prior to arrival I communicated with the property manage-- Traci McCall with IN Travel Group. Ask her very nicely to make sure grill and fish cooker were clean and ready to go. Left a message the day before arrival to verify cookers were ready. Day of arrival the grill is full of ashes and the fish cooker is full of rancid grease. It took 3 days to have grease removed from cooker. It was not cleaned and smelled awful. We had to have fish fried at marina. Only one Upper bunk bed had a ladder. Unless you are an Olympic gymnast its impossible to get in upper bunks.

Family fishing

The property was great. The only thing that would have made it better is a cart for transporting luggage and supplies from the vehicles to the houseboat.

The house boat was great!! There was some damage to the property, but nothing that bothered us. Only wish it came with a rolling dollies, since it was at the end of the Pier. Can't wait to book it again for our next trip!!!

Owner is missing the little things that would make this a 5 star property

No paper towels, no ladders for bunks, fish fryer was full of old grease which rendered it useless, and someone took all the ice from the ice machine the day we were out fishing……..all made for a mediocre experience.
