This is an authentic stay for the adventurous. I don't see this fitting families well if the children are under 12ish, and not more than 2. Best for families familiar with boats or RV's. Pros: Clean and comfortable bedding, towels, shower, and several GREAT spaces to sit and relax, with a beautiful marina feel. Modern TV, and usable kitchen. Very accommodating host. Things to be aware of/check: Is there AC/do you need it? The berths can get hot at night. Is there a kitty/do you have allergies to a kitty. Stairs - narrow and winding (we kept our suitcases upstairs). Location is good, parking was very easy, band stopped at about 9:30 (St. Patrick's Day) and it was very nice to listen from the upper deck. Foot traffic was otherwise very minimal, and it was generally very quiet, although not private. Convenient to a LOT of things. It was a very fun and great rental, but only if the expectations fit.

perfect base camp for fishing!

My 18 year old daughter and I really enjoyed our stay on Don’s boat. It’s not a new rig and has its quirks but has good a/c, adequate Wi-Fi, nice smart tvs and a stocked kitchen. Don is a kind and gracious host. Conveniently located right next to 3 restaurants.

Three old (ages 69, 74 and 79) fishing and hunting buddies rented this old girl for 6 nights in March 2022. We had a GREAT time ! Don, owner and host, greeted us upon arrival, helped with our gear, and explained all the boat's systems to us. All systems with the exception of one marine head, worked as advertised--most important being 1) AC, 2) Ice maker, and 3) Coffee maker. The big screen TV had a great picture and worked perfectly although we seldom utilized it. It was a grand adventure for 3 salty old sportsmen. That being said we all agreed our wives would not have felt as "at home" as we did. In her day she was a grand old lady. Today, however, she's showing her age and could use quite a bit of TLC. The soles (flooring) were in the process of being repaired in several places and most of the woodwork could use refinishing. These items were small inconveniencies to us but would not have been warmly received by our spouses. Also, I suggest you ask Don about the idiosyncrasies regarding the toilets before booking. All that being said, one could not ask for a better location. She lies (albeit with a noticeable list to port) in a beautiful marina that offers adequate parking, access to kayaks, an excursion boat, and offshore fishing charters. But by far the best part of the marina is the access to three really, really good restaurants. Maria's Cuban Coffee shop has delicious coffees, smoothies, sandwiches and deserts. The Raw Bar sits on the marina offers great oysters, stone crab, and lobster as well as burgers, fresh fish and much more all at a great value. Upstairs in the same building is a lively bar and upscale, fine dining restaurant. All three are only steps from the boat. Don is a wonderful host and will do his best to accommodate his guests. Don't hesitate to speak with him prior to your visit. He'll be happy to hear from you.

Boat was in great location, and very easy to get comfortable!

The host, Don, was a wonderful host. Friendly and greeted us at the boat when we pulled in late evening. The boat is old and tired. Only one head worked and no on board shower. While the marina facilities were only steps away..the bathrooms and showers were not well maintained. Don is trying to upgrade /renovate sections of the oat including the heads..but it is an old boat. Too tired to be in VRBO. We live on the Chesapeake Bay and are around a lot of boats. Our expectations were realistic unfortunately they were not met. The dock has a great restaurant and a supe new Cuban coffee cafe. Is close to everything we needed.
