There are many great houseboat rental destinations around the world. A few of the top places to rent a houseboat include:
Houseboat rentals vary in price, but typically cost between $200-$1000 a day. The price for a houseboat rental will depend on the size of the boat, the location, and how many days you wish to rent. There are lots of different sizes and styles of houseboats to rent.
Some of the best lakes to rent a houseboat include:
To operate a houseboat you must be at least 18 years old. Typically you also need a valid driver’s license and proof that you’ve completed a boating safety course in order to rent and drive a houseboat. Rules and regulations for houseboats vary by state, so you will want to check the state and location that you’re operating the houseboat in.
Houseboats, depending on how much fuel in the tank and their efficiency, can travel about 20-30 miles in one day. Distance will depend on many factors, so you’ll want to carefully plan your route if you’re traveling long distances on a houseboat.
There are many factors to consider when packing for a houseboat trip. Check the weather forecast, consider how many days, what activities you’ll be doing, where you’re going, and how many people are coming along. You’ll want plenty of food and water onboard to avoid the chance of running out, warm clothes in case it gets cold unexpectedly, all the necessary safety equipment, and extras to make your trip fun and memorable.
My friends and I had THE BEST time boating with AJ’s team. They were all so accommodating, friendly and eager to ensure we had a great time. The communication from booking to boating was seamless and thorough. AJ was so responsive and helpful. I would 100% recommend anyone to book with them, they will go above and beyond to make sure you have an amazing time!
My only complaint is that we should’ve booked it for longer …. What a gem this boat was! Captain Jeff and his daughter were the best duo: thorough, safe, hospitable and fun. We were a large group of ten with a baby plus a dog and we couldn’t have had a better time. The boat was very clean and comfortable. The jetski and floats were definitely a super plus. Let’s just say I will be contacting Jeff in the future for ALL my boating adventures!! 10/10!!
Booked this for a company outing and the entire team of 25 had a blast ! We Enjoyed our 3hour cruise around the hudson and will definitely be doing this again near the holidays. Captain MIke was outstanding and had many items to make this a seamless outing for us Thank you!
Capt Jeff was so friendly and made our boating experience so much fun! All the water toys, beautiful scenery it was just a perfect day! thank you ,Capt. Jeff for having our friends and fam on your boat!
Jeff was so much fun! A great captain and host. My friends and I enjoyed the day sailing. My favorite part was the water toys!!!!
Owen was very fast with questions & responses. Very nice, and very accommodating with our needs. We didn’t get to tour our boat due to the weather but he instantly refunded us with no hesitation. For that we will be booking with him again. Thank you Owen,.
