Houseboat for a great Getaway weekend... on 29,000-acre Lake Cherokee

Make Yourself at Home on This Unique 1-Bedroom Jefferson City Retreat. Welcome to your cozy getaway on the water! This charming boat features a queen bed in the bedroom and a futon in the living room, comfortably accommodating your stay. With heating and air conditioning, you’ll be at ease in any season. Note: The boat’s engine is non-operational, so it is permanently docked at the marina with full power and water hookups. Step outside to enjoy the fresh air and serene views. The boat measures 28 x 14 ft and includes a spacious 20-ft connected pontoon deck—perfect for lounging or entertaining. Guests can also tie up their own boat alongside for easy lake access. You’ll find all the amenities for a weekend getaway or extended stay, with the convenience of having Off the Hook restaurant right next door. The marina also offers boat rentals if you’d like to explore the lake further. Book your stay today and experience the perfect blend of comfort, relaxation, and lakeside charm!
