surprised by bathroom
It was a lovely and unique stay on the boat. My daughter loved it. It would have been prudent to mention the bathroom situation though. We had to use the Marine facilities to shower and use the toilet. It was inconvenient and if I knew this ahead of time, I probably would have booked a different Vrbo.

Best Sleep Ever!
I LOVED the unique experience of sleeping on this boat, floating with the waves and an easy breeze and llite rain! The neighbors were all very nice and welcoming! It’s exactly what you would expect from a boat! So glad I tried it!

I booked this stay as a surprise for my daughter and 2 daughter-in-laws. I was the one surprised. In the bathroom, there is mold in the corner ceiling of the shower. An electric cord runs on counter behind sink with a lamp on the side of the sink, with dirty ring around it. Another electric cord runs under the low cabinet over the sink and is held up with a clip. You have to use a coffee cup to fill water in toilet. One bedroom with twin beds has an older electric heater between the beds and next to the small dresser. Looked dangerous. Main part of boat is cluttered with used candles, extension cords. The one shelf is lined with used old candles, and the shelf itself is gritty with dirt. Odds and ends of dishes and glasses. Water from the filter on kitchen sink tastes bad. Coffee, peanut butter in cupboard, butter and packs of condiments in refrigerator. must have been left by past quests. Ceilings yellow with age. The positive side, Beds were comfortable and linens were nice and clean. We felt safe in this marina. Sharon was helpful and friendly. Beautiful view of the Lake. Most unique experience to stay on a boat. However, I would never stay on this boat again, too many nice places to stay on or near the lake. A note on the refrigerator asked for a 5 star. I give it a 1 star at best. The pictures are much nicer than what is real. I did take several photos of the problems.
