"We just loved everything about this stay! The property, the location, the community. Nature, serenity, and birdlife along with magnificent sunrises and sunsets. If you are considering this as a possibility - it’s the ONE! It’s a perfect spot, you will not be disappointed, in fact, you are going to want to stay longer. 🌞"

"We were very pleased with our stay. Elegant amenities and fun setting. House was clean and comfortable. We would return."

"Waking up each morning to see the water was such a lovely treat. We had a great time."

"My husband and I stayed here for 7 nights and had a wonderful time. Many great restaurants within walking distance and very cute town. The houseboat is clean and updated. Has everything for cooking meals in too. The bed is very comfortable. Our favorite place was the top deck. We sat up there every evening to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Mallory was always responsive to messages and made a great video to show how to find the houseboat and use everything inside. It was a unique experience...

"I spent a month on the houseboat called “Salty Dog”. I had my 20 lb puppy, Tilly with me and a friend who is a professional pet sitter came and joined us a few times. Two things really impressed me. 1., the boat was superbly equipped as if ready for a long range voyage and 2. The neighbors were all Salties - creative, fun, and helpful. Proximity to everything from a grocery store , laundry and to a pub and a bunch of great local restaurants all within walking distance was great. Parking was easy...

"Bruce communicated so well with us. Immaculate! Loved our stay so much!!!"

"We had a fantastic stay on The West Star! Would highly recommend & hope to stay again!"

"Love love love this place! Management was accommodating and nice also informative on arrival . The location is next to literally everything. We didn't have to uber anywhere . We walked to eat and to the mall to shop. Stayed here a night before our cruise and the terminal is not far at all. Highly recommend and would stay again!"

"The host was super responsive, and check in/out was very easy. Clean and cozy, this was perfect for just me visiting some friends in Venice Beach. Waking up on the water and watching sunsets from the boat was magical! And it’s a great deal too! Would stay again."

"Clean, cozy, great communication. Would stay here again!"

"This place was fantastic! Would recommend and come back 10/10! Although I would say this place is not for everyone; if you’re easy going this place is perfect! You really can’t ask for much when staying literally on the water but I would say this place has everything you need to survive and have a good time! My girlfriend and I are boat regulars and will be recommending this this place to anyone looking for a nice, clean and different experience! Thanks to the owners! "
