About this property

SERENITY AT SEA! LEAVE ALL YOUR WORRIES BEHIND!!!

Our Oliver is located approximately three quarter mile from the base marina, anchored in a beautiful cove, where often times you will have dolphins, and or manatee stop by to say hi!! Please read the description thoroughly, and we recommend this adventure for adventurous,adaptable, easy going sorts. If you're high maintenance, needy, or a picky person, you may want to check in to a Hilton down the road) The boat stays anchored! You're provided with a canoe for your back and forth transportation, and exploring. Or, for a little more, we have motorized dingys for your ease of transportation and exploring delight!!! ( Please see description pics, thanks) the boat has an unheated shower for you to rinse off after a swim in the bay, or just to freshen up for bedtime. The bed is a very nice serta sleeper queen, for your rest assured) Up top you will find a beautiful sitting place, with a lovely breeze most times, to relax, stargaze, and grill out on your Weber propane grill. The generator on the boat will supply your power for coffee, microwave, ac, stove top, or toaster. It's design is not intended to run for 24 hours a day, rather we supply you with 8 hours of generator run time per day, after that, we leave it to you, to cover any extra fuel expenses. This helps keep our costs down and regulated, translating to savings for you!! Thanks so much again, for choosing our boat for your vacation! We look forward to you having a super relaxing, and decompressing vacation with us!!

It takes a special breed...
We had no worries...until we boarded a leaking dinghy (had to sit on the wet floor) and travel 15 minutes from the dock to the bay where the dilapidated boat was anchored. Did I mention that he charged us an EXTRA $110 for use of the dinghy?? I think our host (Mark) expected us to row ourselves and luggage a half mile to the boat... On the boat, no running water and no electricity unless you cranked up a loud stinky generator. There was a triple layer of flooring laid out to cover holes. Dirty plates and spoons in the drawers. Mark provided us with a cooler with ice and a couple gallons of water, TP and a headlamp. We were camping. We worried about getting to and from the boat. If the motor would start. If we could see in the pitch dark. Mark told us if we sank it was only 4 feet of water...and that he explained everything CLEARLY in the description. He told us..."it takes a special breed" to stay on a boat.

Good concept but needs to up his game
I loved the tranquility out on the boat, we rented the dinghy from him and that was the best part of the stay, Mark was very attentive and down to earth. I don’t know if the boat always has this problem or it was just bad timing for us. The water and electricity did not work so I could not stay as long as I would have liked. Could not cook, fridge wasn’t working. Other than that it was interesting.

Sunrise/sunset on the water
Can’t say enough about watching the sun rise and sunset everyday on the water! Beautiful, relaxing, serene. If you want a one of a kind experience, this could be it! The boat is a 36’ carver, plenty of space, but the fly bridge is the place to be! Lots of local places to eat and have a cocktail. With that said the stay is more in line with glamping. Fewer amenities. Mark is a great host and will get back to you with any questions. Enjoy!
