Private Houseboat In Beautiful Newport Harbor

Waterlily is located on a mooring next to Fort Adams State Park is exclusively yours to stay on or for small social gatherings! The cabin has an open floor plan with lots of windows which allows plenty of sea breezes. Take in beautiful views of mansions on rolling greens and boats sailing by on the glistening water from any of the four decks. Swim off the houseboat into the invigorating, salt water then soak up the sun and star gaze at night! Guests must take the water taxi to get on board, to go to shore or to downtown. Its a scenic, short ride across the harbor, like a mini tour! The rate is $4.00 per person per ride (rates may change)

While staying on board we ask our guests to be very conservative with the use of water. It's part of boat living but well worth it! For showers there is cool water. There are solor bladders outside which are heated by the sun for a quick warm water rinse. No cooking is allowed but who wants to cook while on vacation anyway? We suggest bringing picnic style foods to enjoy. There is a coffee maker for guests to use. Also, there are solor lights that light up the houseboat nicely at night. Waterlily, is a comfortable, simplistic, summer escape to be treasured from our family to yours!
