Somerville Houseboat Rentals

"It was so lovely to wake up to the harbour view everyday. Cafes, restaurants and convenience store within easy walking distance. An excellent playground nearby that was a hit with our kids every day."

"Jon was a great host! He generously spent some time getting us acquainted with the boat and pointing us in the direction of the best restaurants within walking distance as well as the free shuttles to get to and from the downtown attractions. We had a great time and if we get back to Boston in the future we will definitely choose this spot!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed staying on the houseboat!! The hosts were fabulous and very informative on how to get around Boston and gave us recommendations for wonderful restaurants within walking distance of the houseboat!! The houseboat was very clean and comfortable and the hosts provided pastries for our breakfasts which was very appreciated!! We would definitely stay at the houseboat again!!"

"This houseboat has it all!! Great interior setup. Lots of huge windows. Location to die for. Fully stocked kitchen. Awesome upper deck sitting area to watch the sunrise with coffee or sunset before heading to dinner. A bed that i could actually sleep well in... might have been the gentle rocking. Did i mention the incredible location!! Easy walking distance, minutes, to everything from great restuarants, attractions, parks, everything!! And you have to try the breakfast sandwiches at Sunny Girl...

"We had a great stay on the boat. Jon showed us everything we needed to know to make the most of our stay both on the boat and in Boston. Beautiful, safe, well-kept marina property. Ferry to Long Wharf just a few piers down. We had a blast. Great way to experience Boston!!"

"...in every way"

"Me and a friend so enjoyed our stay. Rocked to sleep in comfy bed and pull out sofa. Only hiccup is that there are no late check ins. That is stated in other rules."

"This is the 2nd time we’ve booked a boat in the Charlestown marina and it was a great way to see the Boston area! The hosts were very quick to respond to whatever we needed!"

"Great experience. I would stay here again, and hope to, many times over. Marina (building on right as you drive in, before larger restaurant building) has clean and comfortable full bathrooms that make this a great option."

"My son and I stayed here on a spring break trip. The location was a 5 min walk from the USS Constitution, a 10 min walk to Bunker Hill and a 20-30 min walk to the North End. However because we were on a boat in a marina there was zero traffic noise and that combined with the rocking motion of the houseboat meant I slept extremely well. Bonus: we were visited on several days by a pair of ducks who would hang out on the patio with us. Got to love a vacation home that comes with pets! Downsides?...

"Our stay on the Little Pearl was wonderful. It was a very quick walk to the USS Constitution and Bunker Hill, which put us right on the Freedom Trail. We chose not to rent a car and we were able to get around just fine using public transit and LYFT. There's a Dunkin' and a 7-Eleven a short walk away to grab quick and easy breakfasts to take back to the boat and enjoy on the deck. We did not use the kitchen area at all, so I cannot speak to that. I was surprised at the roominess of the...
