Glamping on the Lake
Adorable little boat and property with great facilities! The hosts were very hands on and helpful. It was a boat and it rained on and off during our stay, so things were damp, but that comes with the territory. If you're not used to boats or camping, this might not be for you, but it was a perfect fit for me and my husband and the price point was very fair considering the marina amenities. We came in mid-May so it was chilly for the pool, but the hot tub was amazing. Be aware, there's a button on a pedestal near the hot tub if you want to turn on the jets. There were no signs indicating this anywhere, so we didn't figure it out until our second day, haha. Like any other campsites, you may sometimes deal with noise from neighbors, and sound carries across water. If you're a light sleeper with an early bedtime, bring a noise machine, headphones, or ear plugs. There are a surprising number of outlets on the boat. The fridge was the perfect size for the stuff we brought to grill, some iced coffee for the morning, and a few beers. There is a good number of outdoor gas grills to choose from and tons of walkable restaurants nearby. The bathroom facilities are immaculate, ample, and conveniently located. When it rained outside, we watched board games and watched movies at the kitchenette and it was like being in a rustic little cabin. All in all, it was a memorable and romantic trip, and a very nice change of pace from standard home rentals and KOA camping!

Beautiful Stay
We loved our stay at Me Time and Reef Point Marina.. The resort and area is beautiful! The boat was clean and comfortable. The double bed was a bit small for the both of us (we are used to a king bed) so my husband stayed on the pull-out which was just fine. We would definitely stay again.

Nothing But Fun
We had so much fun! The boat is located in a wonderful marina that has a great restaurant, and a cute gift shop. There’s plenty to do there, and it’s a nice place for walks. There’s two hot tubs and a heated poor available, and that was a lovely surprise. The shower is in a separate building, and they are great! We enjoyed every day there.

Boat Vacation
This was our first time vacationing on a boat. We enjoyed it very much. It was nice to wake up early and watch the sunrise on the lake. The Marina staff was very helpful and the Marina itself was very clean and well taken care of. We enjoyed being on the boat. All the essentials needed were available by the owner. Patrick was very easy to correspond with. I would reschedule this vacation again.

What a great stay!
The Reef Point Marina is fantastic. Super clean, with great amenities and very friendly team. The dock master and his team are always sprucing up the marina area and very helpful with down to earth friendly natural hospitality. The ME TIME boat is great and loved having coffee on the deck in the morning, what a fantastic way to start your day. 3 out of the 4 nights we ordered takeout and went back to the boat to enjoy sunset views eating on the deck. Fantastic way to wrap up the day. There are plenty of great walking trails with great Lake/Marina views and very easy to walk to Main Street Downtown with one of the best bakeries I have visited. . We will do this again as it is a fantastic way to change up routines from staying in a hotel or or standard VRBO type property. Thanks for the great accommodations Patrick.

What a fun location for a mini sister get away! Pools, pool house showers, hot tubs were all clean and not overcrowded. Host was very welcoming and checked in on us via email. The listing states it is for 6 people but only 3 or 4 adults/teens could sleep comfortably on the boat.

Other things to note
1-NIGHT STAYS- Linens are not provided for 1-night stays. You will need to bring a sleeping bag or your own linens. Pillows will be available.

This is a boat. It has three levels. Stairs are involved and can be tricky. We do not recommend this type of lodging for small children.

GREAT LAKES FISHING CHARTERS: Would you like to experience Salmon Fishing? Ask us about booking a fishing trip during your stay. Charter boats are available just steps away from the boat!

Why they chose this property

The space
The boat must remain in the marina. The boat is for Lodging only and can not be moved from the slip.

Sunbathe on the deck, watch tv in the cabin, swim in the pool or at North Beach, kayak down the river and much more. This is marina life!

You will have access to all marina amenities, including an outdoor patio and grilling area, bar, Laundry, Showers, bathrooms, and restaurant. Most importantly it is very close to downtown restaurants and outdoor bars.

The marina includes access to hot showers and clean restrooms. Accessible 24/7 and just a very short walk from the boat.

There is a stove, microwave, fridge, and coffee maker aboard. There is a restaurant at the marina and many more delicious places to eat within walking distance.

There are 2 sinks with water and a flushing toilet on the boat. The marina has 3 very nice, clean shower facilities, two of which are less than 100 yards from the slip.

This is a stay-aboard boat and guests will not be allowed to take the boat out of the slip.

There is a sleeping area in the bow stateroom, that can accommodate 2 people (Tighter than a normal bed). There is a sofa that converts to a bed in the salon area. The Dinette can be converted to a bed as well, but 4 people will make for a crowded space.

Keep in mind that staying aboard a boat will not be the same as staying in a hotel or a home. Boats move when you walk, they have tripping hazards, the headspace is less, and stepping on and off can be challenging; so please set your expectations properly. We have gone to great lengths to make the space cozy and easy to get around in, however, we encourage guests to look through the pictures and consider any personal mobility limitations that might make this a challenging stay.

Please bring a rain jacket if inclement weather is expected.
