Always dreamed about renting a houseboat? Here’s your chance. You can rent a houseboat for 2 nights to a week. Spend your vacation floating on the slow-moving Mississippi River. You can captain the boat along the river, or if you're just not sure about driving the big boat, we can take you out and anchor you for a day of enjoyment and move you to a new spot the following day. A houseboat vacation on the Mississippi River can make your vacation an experience you will never forget.

The space
Our houseboat features a sleeping area below deck with 4 twin memory foam mattresses. (supply your own bedding) The main cabin has 2 sitting areas that convert to beds, a large kitchen prep area, a small fridge, small stove & oven, a gas grill, and a bathroom. Everything you need to enjoy a stay out on the water. Our spacious upper deck doubles your living space allowing for outdoor dining, sightseeing and relaxing.

There is a patio umbrella on the top deck for a little shade.

Guest access
You will have access to the whole boat. 3 levels. The lower berth - is a sleeping quarters and you will have to crawl to get to beds. Kids and young at heart love it!

You can also use the resort canoes, kayaks, pool and hot tub.

Other things to note
FYI –
To keep expectations clear: These boats were not made for today’s dependence on electronics, nor are they hotels on water. There is no TV. The outlets are limited with no A/C or heat. It is our hope you will unplug and enjoy each other and your surroundings. The more phones, tablets, fans, lights and things you have plugged in, the shorter the time the batteries will last. You have a set limit of fresh water in the tank, when that runs out, we need to dump and refill.

Run the generator when needed. Cool off in the river, play games and enjoy the sounds of nature and this beautiful River.
