You will not be disappointed if you choose to rent this beautiful houseboat. I celebrated my 50th birthday there with my sister, my friend (who was also celebrating her 50th) and her husband. We all were extremely impressed with the home. Jeff even wanted to marry the massage chair!

Owner response: It's people like Buffy that really make me feel like everything I have done to make it comfortable is worth it. To hear that people had a great time and loved the place really make me feel good. We keep someone on staff who is on call to help guests with any questions or needs they have, but every once in a while you get a review like "some plants on the deck were dead", or be suprised that a tidal bay is tidal etc and wonder why someone would let that spoil their vacation and post it in a review rather than contacting us or the staff. You can't please everyone, but the overwhelming amount of good reviews we have received are really appreciated. Edit My Response

My sister, my son and his wife and little 2 year old and my other daughter and her boyfriend all enjoyed our wonderful Sausalito week-end. Our stay at the Houseboat was a highlight for sure! We all raved about the comfortable living room with its amazing massage chair and nice big TV! The kitchen was perfect size and had every gadget imaginable! We prepared a barbeque dinner and all sat around the nice big dining table and enjoyed each others' company! I would do it again for sure!

 

lovely stay

Lovely environment - all the attributes of a lux hotel - very well setup - very luxious and comfortable. I really enjoyed my time at the houseboat - it is very comfortable and is a joy to stay in.

Owner response: We try very hard to make the environment a happy and memorable one. When we get unsolicited compliments like this one it makes it all worthwhile. Edit My Response

Our stay in Sausalito was great. We had quick access to the coast and the Marin Farmer's Market. The house was terrific. We all enjoyed the massage chair and WII (first time!). The kitchen was well equipped and very functional. Highly recommend the house boat.

This was the perfect get-away for my family and my 2 sons' friends. Breakfast on the kitchen deck and fresh air blowing through the house from the marina was so relaxing. Loved the massage chair and jetted tub! Thanks for offering your home as a vacation rental. Can't wait to return!!

I want to take a moment and thank Susan for the stay on her houseboat.This was one of the most unique and satisfying stays in my lifetime.I was with 4 of my brothers from around different parts of the country and we enjoyed every moment.From the incredible massage chair to the dock side motor boat you would be hard pressed to find a more comfortable , well designed and decorated overnight stay anywhere.Throw in world class spots to sight see and dine with in minutes of the house boat and you can see why we were so happy with the stay. Can't wait to bring my wife and another couple to stay again. Thanks again, Mike

WOW! What a wonderful experience! We stayed in this fabulous place for a 'girls weekend' to celebrate a friend's 40th bday and everyone had a blast! Took the boat out for a sunset cruise around the Sausalito Bay, used the BBQ for dinner one night, and were very impressed with all the special amenities and touches. Thanks Susan, this place is a class act!

We had a great time visiting Sausalito and staying in your houseboat. What a luxurious place to stay. Everyone enjoyed the massage chair which relieved everyone's stress. Sleeping in the bed in the master bedroom was the best sleep I have ever had away from home. I highly recommend this place. Thank you for accomodating us.

I just wanted to thank you again for letting us stay at your houseboat this weekend. We enjoyed the champagne and basket of fruit. Our wedding was beautiful, especially with all the activity from Fleet Week happening. We took some pictures on the wooden pier with all the beautiful flowers. All of your neighbors walking by were very nice and congratulated us. We didn't have any problems with the parking at the marina...no one was towed or ticketed. Thank you again for accommodating us with the early check in and late checkout. Everything was perfect. Best Regards, Lance Hershman

It is a great location and made me want to move there forever. As just one couple, the price is a bit high for a weekend but great nonetheless. Also, there is quite a bit of privacy on this dock as compared to others. Everything is first-rate from the bed to the television and stereo system. Susan, the owner was very generous – thank you for the delicious fruit and wine. It was the perfect way to kick-off a weekend. We’ll be back soon! A. Smith
