I've never stayed in a houseboat before so this stay was a blast for me. Loved the floating home 'hood, the uniqueness of the suite, the welcome birthday balloons 😊 and the comfy bed. It was a short waterfront walk to Lonsdale Quay, Seabus and The Shipyards. The host, Marilyse, was quick to answer my questions. Highly recommend!

Sweet Little Floating Home in North Vancouver
Fantastic location, house, and communications. My husband and I were on vacation, and the thought of a floating house appealed to both of us. The house itself was small but well-appointed for visitors. When a storm came through, Marilyse checked on us and our comfort level. The gentle rocking and rolling were conducive to great sleep, but be aware it's similar to a houseboat with additional squeaking and sounds from the mooring. Overall a fantastic experience that met our expectations and people who enjoy being on the water.

Cozy spot in a perfect location!
We were in Vancouver over the weekend for the Taylor Swift concert and this place was absolutely perfect for my family of 4! Our girls (7 & 10) shared the pullout couch and we didn't feel cramped at all! Marilyse & Mike live in the unit upstairs, but we barely knew they were there at all. And they were instantly helpful every time we had a question. The unit is an easy 10 minute walk to/from Lonsdale Quay and the Seabus, so getting around Vancouver is a breeze! We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!
