The space
"Because Hotels are Boring"
The boat must remain in the marina. The boat is for Lodging only and can not be moved from the slip. Air-conditioned or heat to your liking.
Sunbathe on the deck, watch tv in the cabin, swim in the pool (Seasonal), hang out in the hot tub, or at North Beach, much more. This is marina life!
You will have access to all marina amenities, including an outdoor patio and grilling area, bar, Laundry, Showers, bathrooms, and restaurant. Most importantly it is very close to downtown restaurants and outdoor bars.
The marina includes access to hot showers and clean restrooms. Accessible 24/7 and just a very short walk from the boat.
There is a stove, microwave, fridge, and coffee maker aboard, however, there is no oven. There is a restaurant at the marina and many more delicious places to eat within walking distance.
There are 3 sinks with hot/cold water and two flushing toilets on the boat. The marina has 3 very nice, clean shower facilities, two of which are less than 100 yards from the slip.
This is a stay aboard boat and guests will not be allowed to take the boat out of the slip.
Pools and Hot Tubs are typically open mid-May thru September - Weather impacts availability as well as mechanical issues should they exist. These are out of our control. If the pool and/or hot tubs are closed for any reason, we are not responsible and no refunds or credits will be applied. There is a beautiful sandy beach within walking distance.
IMPORTANT: Linens will be provided ONLY for the number of guests you list. Linens are not included for 1-night stays, you must bring your own. If you list one person, only one bed will be prepared for you. For insurance purposes and marina requirements, we also must know the TOTAL number of people included in your reservation.
Keep in mind that staying aboard a boat will not be the same as staying in a hotel or a home. Boats move when you walk, they have tripping hazards, the headspace is less, stepping on and off can be challenging; so please set your expectations properly. We have gone to great lengths to make the space cozy and easy to get around in, however, we encourage guests to look through the pictures and consider any personal mobility limitations that might make this a challenging stay.
Please bring a rain jacket if inclement weather is expected.
