  • About this space
    Enjoy nature on the Mississippi & mod design in the cool NE
    neighborhood near downtown. Walk to restaurants, coffee, bars,
    brew pubs, clubs, art galleries. We've hosted hundreds of guests
    at our Mississippi home. We now offer a 1970 Boatel in spring,
    summer, fall. Safe access through our backyard. A shared dock.
    Kitchen, two beds, bathroom, dining room, deck. A glorious
    lighted bridge north & skyscrapers south. NOTE there are ice
    cream trucks across the river w some minor noise as they park.
    The space
    2 full size beds. Private bedroom in back. Second pullout couch/
    bed in the cabin room. Equipped kitchen. Bathroom with hot
    shower and chemical toilet. Outside: covered deck with seating
    front and back. A shared dock with seating. Charcoal grill.
    Guest access
    Along with the entire houseboat you can use the fire pit on shore.
    This is a shared dock which moors our pontoon boat and
    sometimes 1 or 2 other boats. We try to be quiet at later hours
    when using the pontoon or other boats, but you may hear us.
    Like a small marina there is some
    activity. The area is also shared by ducks, geese, herons, bald
    eagles, woodchucks, beavers and jumping fish. The backyard
    behind our house is used by other occasional guests and our
    dog Poe who likes to swim.
    Other things to note
    Use the charcoal grill on the shared dock or shore only. No
    smoking in the houseboat or on either deck. Try to use water
    sparingly. If you run out text us and we will fill the water tank.
