On waterside, queen bed and a full bath (shower). Below deck; second bedroom (2 full beds + its own full bath (shower). Tropical vegetation. No wake zone.

First of all, it's a boat. Some people may not understand the compromises that entials, but for those that do, this is a great place to stay. The location was over-the-top fabuluous and we caught nice fish right off the fantail.
Yvonne was wonderful and made our family vacation on the boat feel effortless from start to finish. The boat was very well stocked with all the necessities—coffee, towels, and everything we needed to be comfortable. The location is absolutely prime, close to almost everything, which made getting around easy. We also loved the live music from Guanabanas next door; it added to the atmosphere and never interfered with bedtime. I did see a comment about the age of the boat, and while it isn’t brand new, it was cozy, well cared for, and clearly loved. Yvonne is constantly updating it and adding new touches, which really shows. We’d happily stay again.
Nice. Loud Friday & Saturday nite with band and music at restaurant next door. Super convenient location. This is a houseboat, with small spaces for 2 toilets, and old school pumps…
For father and adult son weekend trip this was fun.
Yvonne’s houseboat was well appointed with many convenient features - good shades for privacy and sun control, localized fans for cooling and very comfortable beds and sheets. We loved her kayak and listening to the live music coming from nearby Guanabanas.
What you need to understand is this is a boat and has boat plumbing - with all that it entails.
I cannot say enough good things about this adventure! Check-in was the easiest ever. Beautiful and peaceful area with friendly people. The boat was clean and comfy and well stocked. Incredible sunrise and be able to walk out in the morning and start fishing was an added bonus! Best sleep in ages. We will definitely be back!

Jupiter house boat
Views great.. very very convenient to walk to restaurants.deli etc. Could be updated ..less clutter..BIG BED AND COMFY....2nd bedroom misleading its a crawl space none of my visitors would stay there. A rather large person would have trouble walking on the narrow side of boat for entry or to go to the LOVELY decks. I had to leave early due to no cems bugs..I was bitten alive..and possible smell on boat..A C and fan works GREAT but boat does get very hot in the afternoon.. needs better direction re: television....It was an experience..like camping on the water...if you don't get bit by bugs easily ..this maybe your place...
Had a really great time on the houseboat. Super relaxing and an amazing location. Only bad thing I can think of was the AC in the master bedroom is super loud but if you keep the bedroom door open the main AC does a good enough job to cool the place down. It was a good experience and would definitely rent again.

Beautiful scenery with peace and quiet ......boat living is different from home
This property is located in a wonderful location with lots of activities, food in walking distance....the view from the boat is so peaceful and beautiful with water on 3 sides. The property is in need of some upgrading ....the bath and bedrooms are typical of a smaller boat and therefore small. Living , dining and kitchen space was very comfortable........Owners were very accomodating ......

Disaster on the Intercoastal
We were really looking forward to this week because my sister who found this rental and loves the water has cancer and its was a way that we all could get together. All of us who stayed here were over 60.
The first morning we were here one of the ladies stepped on the floating
