Our stay April 10-16
We enjoyed our stay on the floating bungalow. It is the perfect location, a short walk to downtown and the many restaurants and breweries. We were also just steps from the river walk and near several beautiful parks.

Floating Paradise
Beautifully decorated, modern, spic n span. This gem has all the necessities you would need to spend a relaxing time on the water. Close to town with restaurants to meet any desires from sandwiches to steaks. Take a walk along Lake Monroe enjoying the outdoors. Enjoyed our stay and will probably return.

Simply amazing!
This is basically a cool apartment on the water, normal bathroom, shower, and kitchen appliances. The best boat house we have ever stayed on and that has been a few. A must stay if you are in the area.

Excellent All Around!
Our stay at the boathouse exceeded our expectations. Check-in was easy and free parking lot was very close to the house. The boathouse was immaculate. We were within walking distance of restaurants and really enjoyed the lovely little city of Sanford. A wonderful experience for our birthday getaway -- we highly recommend this property!

Individual get away
This property was exactly what I hoped it would be. I was traveling by myself, visiting some friends, and wanted a place to just get away and relax. I really enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the water having breakfast, and at night just unwinding with a cup of coffee. I will definitely be back.

Awesome Houseboat
The houseboat is fabulous. and the hosts were great Just steps away from a very vibrant downtown with lots of restaurants and pubs. Great place to bring bikes to ride around the quaint neighborhoods surrounding downtown Sanford. We brought kayaks to go Blue Springs and paddle near the manatees.

Just Perfect
The houseboat was spotlessly clean. The furniture and appliances were planned perfectly for comfort and function in such a little space. Sitting on the little porch was so relaxing and we enjoyed just a short walk to restaurants and shops in historic Sanford. The owner provided excellent and clear instruction for check in and encouraged us to contact him if we had questions.

Perfect!
We had an amazing stay at this adorable house boat. The location was perfect, and was a quick easy walk to all the downtown sites. The owners were super quick to respond, and very accommodating. It was clean, comfy, and had more room than we were expecting. We loved our time on the deck bird watching and checking out the other boats on the water. A+++ We will most definitely be rebooking in the future. Thanks guys!
