Endless Summer: Oceanside Views

Stay a weekend. Stay a week! All of the amenities of home are included in this spectacular apartment-on-the-water in the heart of Boston's North End. Enjoy amazing harbor views and cool ocean breezes in the light-filled stateroom. Prepare breakfast in the fully stocked chef's kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances and a granite island. Invite friends over for drinks on the enormous deck. This is truly Boston's most unique and memorable vacation experience.

Conveniently located in the heart of downtown Boston at Lewis Wharf, this boat is just steps away from the New England Aquarium, Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall, the North End, Boston Garden, a public ice skating rink, and countless other things to see and do.

Short walk (less than 10 mins) to Aquarium, North Station and Government Center subway stations

The adjacent parking lot charges $30-35 for 24 hours (this does not include in-and-out privileges)

Looking for a different type of transportation? Book a tour of the Boston Harbor with our partners, Red Top Boats, for a water taxi service or boat charter.

Unique Experience!
We were excited to stay in such a unique place and it did not disappoint. The location was excellent - within walking distance of the Aquarium & our trolley tour pick up location. There are some excellent food and drink options near as well. We grabbed a quick bite the next day at Boston Sail Loft where the chowder was excellent! Our flight arrived late (10pm) and after getting our car and getting thru the Boston traffic we arrived at the parking area around midnight. Navigating to the dock and boat was a little difficult in the dark, but the owner provided as much detail as possible. The boat was well appointed and had we stayed longer than one night, we'd have taken advantage of the outdoor seating and the kitchen and laundry facilities. We reached out to the owners with a few questions and comments, which were responded to quickly. All in all a fun experience and one we won't forget!

Great house boat in North End Boston
Check-in process was very simple and straight forward. Host communicated well with us and had a great Labor Day weekend. Location is in a very convenient but a little crowded with tourists (us included I guess). Lots of local dining options and convenient parking. Would stay again. Very happy with our choice.

Incredible!!
Amazing rental! It was clean, comfortable, convenient, newly renovated with incredible location and views!! Watched an amazing sunrise from the roofdeck :) AC worked good, they even thought of all the minor conveniences of a stay- from charger to pantry travel size condiments, ample paper towels, trash bags, and TP provided… as well as clean and cozy sheets towels and blankets and pillows :) Customer service/Naomi was stellar- answered every time I called and super helpful! Quiet and peaceful surroundings, safe, and close to so many dining/tourist options of North End or Seaport district. Had no trouble finding a parking spot at the Lewis wharf lot parking lot for overnight/24 hr option. 10/10!! Can’t wait to re-book. Thank you!!!!

Had a wonderful stay. Location is ideal and the gentle rocking of the boat lulled us to sleep after long days of enjoying the city. Would definitely stay again.

Huzzah!
If the revolutionaries had stayed here they may have had second thoughts about throwing tea into the harbor and instead decided to enjoy a cup in this beautiful spot! Location location location! Very comfortable and for a houseboat, spacious accommodation within walking distance (<1-1+ mi) to most city attractions. Highly recommend

We had plans in Boston and wanted to spend the night near the North End. This houseboat was perfect! Location, clean, had everything we needed. We hope to find a reason to stay again.

Very fun stay at a great property
My family and I had a wonderful time at the house boat rental. It is tricky to get to the deck where the furniture is located (via ladder) so families with smaller children or anyone with mobility disability/limitations may not be able to access the outdoor seating area. The walk from the parking lot to the boat is easier with carry rather than roller bags - just good to know/mention in advance for planning. Well stocked, clean, super fun stay. We would visit again!

Fun Family Stay
My husband and I took our two boys for a long weekend. This was an excellent place to stay. They had a blast staying on a boat, and we loved being so close to everything. We could easily walk everywhere and get the T to Fenway, the Science Museum, and Harvard. It was great having a full-sized kitchen and more space than a hotel in the area. We enjoyed having dessert and coffee on the rooftop and enjoying the views.

Perfectly placed house boat
This modern and attractive house boat sits at the end of the pontoon with great views out across the harbour, rather than being set between two other boats. It is in a nice neighbourhood in Boston too with easy walk to downtown and tourist areas. Great!

Best rental ever!! And it's a boat!!
This houseboat has it all!! Great interior setup. Lots of huge windows. Location to die for. Fully stocked kitchen. Awesome upper deck sitting area to watch the sunrise with coffee or sunset before heading to dinner. A bed that i could actually sleep well in... might have been the gentle rocking. Did i mention the incredible location!! Easy walking distance, minutes, to everything from great restuarants, attractions, parks, everything!! And you have to try the breakfast sandwiches at Sunny Girl Cafe across the street. I fully enjoyed my stay and already looking for an excuse to return!!
