Lots of wildlife, birdwatching and great views all around. Highly recommend! ##### Breah A. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Jule W. 12 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful location This rustic houseboat provided a fun weekend overall. It was a tad cramped with our dog, but we figured out how to move around inside. Gorgeous location, no-frills, no running water or flushing toilet, so if you don't mind that, it's a great place to stay for a couple days. ##### Jule W. Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marc C. 8 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quaint little rustic boat house The property owners definitely put a lot of thought and effort into this little gem! The neighborhood is quiet, the owners didn't disturb us at all! Swans, geese, and a variety of birds to see and hear. If I could only pick one thing to say about this location, I would definitely have to mention that the property owners provide absolutely everything and anything you could possibly need! The only negative would be the size of the shower and toilet. I am a big guy so small spaces are hard for me to maneuver, and the toilet is a compost unit and very small! The lake is over run with weeds (which is not the owners fault). The lake association needs to do a weed kill before it strangles the aquatic life out of the lake! All said, we had a nice peaceful weekend and would definitely recommend the "Tiny Boathouse"! ##### Marc C.
