Relaxing getaway!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay here. House was very clean and had eveything we needed. Use of kayaks was huge bonus. Property location was close to lots of restaurants and stores, but just far enough from everything to still feel remote and peaceful. We will definitely be back!

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.

Perfect For Us!

This boathouse was a surprise to me, we've been to Monroe many times to visit our kids and grands, but never knew about it. I was searching VRBO and came across the boathouse and am I glad I found it!! So clean, comfortable, amazing owner who was on top of all communications, we have a tritoon, 22 ft....had no idea if this lake and boat ramp could accommodate but he assured me it could. We docked right beside the boathouse under shelter.The bed was so comfortable. It was great waking up to a fantastic view. One evening we forgot to grab supper, got back to the boathouse and he had left us spaghetti and sauce!!!!! It was perfect. No complaints at all.

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.

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

Heaven

Beautifully located and ideal for a break. The spot was immense on the lake. Fishing, kayaking all within seconds of waking up. At night all we could hear were the frogs and cicadas. Inside was spotlessly clean and everything pretty much you would need. No wifi but for us that meant we were forced to relax more. Satellite TV for the nighttime game was ideal and the comfiest couch and bed I’ve ever used. Capt Joe was there with a new chair when we discovered one was broken and responded straight away. A superb host who was great with his recommendations for places to eat etc. we will def be staying again if it’s available . Overall o can’t recommend enough.
