Once again it was perfect. I can’t review how great this place really is as I want to be able to rebook for next year!! This was our second stay here and it was brilliant. However if you want somewhere with internet this isn’t for you, but if you want peace and quiet and a magnificent location, then this is for you

Beautiful Place

This is a great place to relax and enjoy nature. The marina next door has boat traffic in and out, but it didn’t bother us. There was music playing Friday evening, but you could only hear it outside on the deck. We enjoyed our stay and we would love to visit again.

Amazing floating home

This is one of our favorite stays. The house and the location was perfect. Open space with tons of windows and extremely clean. Great kitchen space with everything you need, nice living area with comfortable couch, nice spacious bath with washer and dryer, comfortable bed and of course a beautiful view from the dock. Definitely recommend.

Enjoyed our stay very much. Unfortunately it had rained a lot but our host made sure we could get in by putting a ramp up so we could access the property. Very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the porch while watching the rain, birds and the water. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely perfect!

The cabin was just perfect. Close enough to town but far enough away to enjoy the quiet. Capt Joe was very attentive to the walkway, as they had quite a bit of rain prior to our arrival and areas were flooded. Would highly recommend this property for anyone looking to be on water. to our atrival

Great little getaway

Really great views and access to the lake and river. Feels remote, but still was close to grocery stores if feeling the urge to stay in and not go anywhere! Very nice sunsets and kayaking around the lake was a nice experience. Host is very communicative but not overly so - just right!

My wife and I stayed in this cabin for four nights for our 25th wedding anniversary. Just as the VRBO title claims, this is truly an enchanting floating cabin that you will find to be just as the photos show. The cabin was very clean and well maintained. The host was very quick to respond to any communications. Thank you Captain Joe for your hospitality. My wife and I will definitely be back soon.
