We love this place. Very clean and well equipped, this home is perfect for a couple, with room for occasional guests. The neighbourhood of floating homes is quiet and respectful of privacy inspite of the close proximity houses. Anna, our hostess is prompt and efficient regarding any problems that might arise, And, as a testiment, this was our second stay here.

The houseboat is lovely
Our small family of three stayed at this property for a total of four nights and LOVED every minute of it! I've rented a lot of properties over the years in various places and I can say this one is stocked with everything a person could need in a rental home. And all this in a small but super tidy home. The kitchen had plenty of glasses/dishes/flatware/kitchen appliances. The bathroom had tons of towels and each bedroom had super comfortable beds. Overall it was clean and comfortable. Cannot say enough good things about how it appeared when we arrived. The upstairs deck was nice for morning coffee. The best part is going out on the paddle boards and kayaks! The community is quiet and friendly and there is a cafe and small market on the property as well. The cafe had great gluten free options too! In case you need that, which we did! We even met some of the neighbors and felt so at home there! I recommend this property. It's close quarters and there was a bit of noise one of the nights but mostly it was quiet and completely relaxing!
