    This was exactly what we needed! Peaceful, beautiful and very relaxing. We slept like babies on the boat and even took much needed naps! The staff was helpful and kind. We look forward to going back God willing!

    We stayed on the boat for a weekend and had a great time! The boat crew were fantastic and so friendly! And access to the resort was perfect for the overall cost. We will definitely be back!

    It’s a boat lifestyle but an onboard shower would be so much nicer

    My son and I had a great time. Great location. House boat was a neat experience. The bathrooms were well cared for. I did want to add that Gunner was amazing! Not only did he assist me and answer all my questions I noticed he really works very hard taking care of the property. I witnessed him every day assisting the boaters, raking the beach, taking care of the garbage, check the pool skimmers, keeping the fast boats away from the docks, etc. He rarely stopped moving all day. You are lucky to have him!!

    It was a great location. The place was good. The loft is great for little kids. The showers were in a building along withbathrooms. Only use toilet when emergency. The place was great except for that. Would rent again .

    We stayed at this boat house for an extra long weekend before the kids went back to school. We booked this house because of its proximity to Laconia and Meredith and it didn’t disappoint. We were able to bike into town and get breakfast smoothies, ice cream and spend all our money at the arcades!! If you are looking for a different vacation rental that your kids will think is cool, this is for you. Lance and the dock hands were very responsive and always available to help. The Awka Marina is well kept, with many things to keep the family busy.

    We enjoyed our vacation on the houseboat! Such a beautiful setting on the lake. The Akwa Marina staff (special shout-out to the dockhands) were so friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be returning. Thank you Akwa!

    We stayed on one of the houseboats and had an awesome time! It was a very unique experience. The Beach Bar was amazing, the staff was great and the food was delicious. The only complaint we had was that there was no cable tv and very spotty wi-fi; luckily we had great weather so it wasn't a huge issue! We will definitely be back!
