About this property

Boat house sleeps 4 in Furnas lagoon shore with canoes and bicycles

Old flag of the boats, the House of Boats is part of the property comprised in the mid-nineteenth century by José do Canto, an aristocrat São Miguel, who in 1814 married a rich heiress, Maria Guilhermina Taveira Brum da Silveira.

It began to purchase plots of land, having come to 600ha. For this whole area ordered several of the major European cities coming projects such as London and Paris, leaving us on the spot, a legacy of great architectural and botanical value.

Although reduced to 100ha, the property can be enjoyed by many points of interest.

The garden part, Mata-Jardim, represents an important scenic and botanical legacy for the region. These are all features that lend the area a cinematic environment, full of mergers between nature and human intervention, able to provide you unforgettable moments.

- The House of Boats offers two comfortable suites for two people (bedroom, living room and bathroom), one on the ground floor with a fantastic framework for the Lagoon and the second on the top floor, facing the Chapel. Suites:
- Double bed
- Closet
- Towel warmer
- Hair Dryer (on request)
- Equipped kitchen
- Central heating
- Telephone
- Internet
- Bicycles and Canoes
- Change of Lençóus 1 to week
- On the ground floor is still the common room designed for your moments of rest, with TV, telephone and Internet connection. The kitchen, fully equipped, and an independent bathroom.
- Upstairs, along with the Suite, is a playroom dedicated to leisure time.
- The whole house is equipped with central heating, allowing a comfortable presence during the winter.
- To enjoy a family holiday, the House of Boats offers placing extra beds for a fee to match.
- For clients of the House of Boats will also be offered the use of canoes, free entry in Mata Jose do Canto Garden, as well as the neo-Gothic chapel of Our Lady of Victories.

Amazing location!

One of the best Vrbos we’ve ever stayed at. The location is idyllic. Access to the park, kayaks, swimming in the lake, it’s all amazing. Highly recommend this location!

Historic house

The house was just as advertised, very cool and historic, right on the lake with access tothe whole estate, about 20 minutes from furnas, restaurants, shops. Lovely welcome basket was waiting for us, check in a breeze, the only negative was how humid it is, and they do have dehumidifiers but they keep the heat in also to dry the placer out, so it’s quite warm inside, so if you open the windows the humidity is about 100 percent with no fans.

A slice of heaven

Historic home, you will find this home on post cards, magnets, Cups, etc. The property is stunning. The garden, the lake, the church, it was all amazing. The home is a bit dated so if you are looking for chic and modern this is not the place for you! It was however just what I thought the Azores would be like. It was a slice of heaven for us. During the day there is a lot of foot traffic but in the evening it is all yours! The garden has a nice path that leads to a pretty little waterfall. There is a beautiful peacock that roams the yard. Our host had a nice basket of fresh bread, jelly, juice, butter, cheese, milk and bolas levedos. It set the tone! I wish now I had booked this for the entire 9 days. But we stayed 4 nights on each end of the island. By far, Furnas was the best.

Lovely old lodge

Meeting Margarida at check in was wonderful, as we heard all of the history of the large property and her family home. Beautiful interior and calm view of the Lagoa das Furnas. We had a very nice time. It was great to be in a home over 200 years old. Jose and Wendy Soares, Vanc. Island, Canada
