We had a really nice stay! My child loved the “no-grown-ups-allowed secret room” (lower bedroom) and playing Captain of the boat. The kitchen had everything you need; I was able to cook full meals using the griddle provided.

The property was beautiful! Loved being so close to the cows. Boat is just as pictured and we had a great time grilling between the rain showers.

Adam was friendly, helpful, and ensured we had everything we would need to enjoy our stay. Our group absolutely loved the setting and fell in love with the good ol' Jenny Belle! Such a unique and lovely stay! Our only complaint is that we wished we could have stayed longer and spent more time exploring the property!

Just what I was looking for so beautiful and quite easy to get lost but even then was a great adventure and the host was very helpful and easy to talk to any problems they took care of it immediately WILL definitely do this again a very wonderful experience

Made plans with friends to come in for the Pawpaw Festival and like to stay at unique places. I mean who wouldn't want to stay on a Houseboat?! It was clean, cozy, and more. I didn't realize when booking the area was secluded and it was sure a welcoming surprise along with the cows serenading us while drinking our morning coffee. We didn't get a chance to explore the property, but did really enjoy the stars at night. I will defiantly be coming back with my husband to enjoy more of what this place has to offer. Absolutely amazing views and fun place to stay.

We loved every single thing about staying here! My girls 6 & 8 both said “best vacations yet” & “I want to live here when I grow up” so couldn’t ask for anything better! We Will def be back.

We had wonderful stay. Such a unique & fun property. Adam was very friendly & helpful in making sure we had a great stay. We enjoyed the pond as well. My only critique would be is that a map of the property and pond would be helpful. We got a little turned around for the pond & where the trash was located on the last day.

This property was so much fun for our family! So much to explore! We will definitely be back

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay. The jacuzzi was great at night for stargazing and the hamock under the tree was great for a mid-day nap. The location is very remote and quiet except for the sounds of nature--it was exactly the getaway we needed. Also, there are more cooking supplies than listed on the amenities with an air fryer and a griddle. I'd love to stay here again!

The house boat was awesome! Property owners were respectful and never intruded. Nature has its way of calming and it’s what I was looking for! Oh and the Stars!!!!! Wow!

My friend and I met about halfway between each of our homes for a weekend celebrating 35 years of friendship. The Beached Houseboat was a great location! Communication with Adam was great and the Houseboat was just as described. We had a little issue with the grill Friday night but upon calling Adam, he resolved it quickly and was apologetic that it happened. We were grateful for his quick response. There’s a small fridge, microwave, toaster available. Additionally, a griddle, air fryer, crockpot, and blender that we didn’t use. We each brought coolers and kept drinks in one and used the other one for regular food storage since counter space is limited. There are a lot of windows which are tinted and air conditioning but we were there when it was 95° and it was a little warmer in the kitchen/ bedroom area. I brought a small tower fan and it helped cool that area off more. The shower was tricky to get the water adjusted properly but we made it work. The property was so serene. It was nice to be away from road noise and traffic. There were so many birds and deer, and we heard coyotes at night. The night sky and full moon during our stay was beautiful! There were tons of fish in the pond and it was so refreshing to swim on a hot day. We explored a trail near the pond. The property is huge and I hope to return again to explore more.
