Magnificent 70' Houseboat with Roof Top Party Deck Walking Distance to DT Knox

Tired of staying in the same old stuffy boring hotel room? So were we, so we decided to own our own Houseboat on the Tennessee River, where we could walk to just about everything. The “Moonlight Madness” is docked in the peaceful Volunteer Landing Marina in Knoxville. The marina is steps away from award winning “Ruth’s Chris” steakhouse and Calhoun’s On the River. You can walk to both as well as the Neyland Greenway, James White Greenway, Neyland Stadium, Thompson-Boling arena, University of Tennessee and the vibrant Market Street in Downtown Knoxville. We can accommodate 6 people in beds. We have 2 bedrooms, one king size bed in the master and a Full bed in the crew quarters and a queen size pull out couch, along with 2 bathrooms. We feature 3 decks, one off the bow, one off the stern (great for morning coffee or catching some rays) and a 70' PARTY DECK on the roof. The party deck has abundant seating along with 2 flatscreen HD television and a gas grill. The master also has a 40' Vizio UHD flatscreen with Smartcast. The salon also has a 50' UHD flatscreen. Our boat comes fully stocked with clean linens and towels. The galley also comes fully stocked with dishes, utensils and small appliances along with Hi-Speed internet. You will meet a lot of very nice people that reside at the marina full time. Also, we have an golf cart and 2 Kayaks,1SUP and 2 beach cruiser bikes that are available for you to use while at our boat. Sorry, but the Houseboat doesn't leave the marina because of the river current. We also have a full-time Marina Manager and store on site should you need anything or have any questions with our boats. We want your stay with us to be a memorable one, and will make every attempt to make you want to come back. Proud to be a Premier Partner Host.

Weekend Getaway
We met friends for the weekend and chose Moonlight Madness because it looked so charming. We were right! It’s a fun houseboat, there’s plenty of room to play cards or to just sit and enjoy the view. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need. There are several coolers, extra towels, toiletries, etc. In case you forget it, Moonlight Madness has it! Fonz is a great host, I had some questions about check in and he was very quick to respond. Pro Tip: Upon arriving, park your car but leave your luggage. Walk down to the boat to retrieve your parking pass and the golf cart. Drive it up to your car and ride your luggage down.

Cool place
Perfect place for us. We had four. Two adults, two teens. Space for everyone. And a dog. Worked out great for us. The golf cart was very helpful and appreciated to get things from the parking lot. Full kitchen and plenty of extra linen. Right on the river but the boat barely moved, if you’re worried about that. Fonz was very responsive when we had a question. Would highly recommend.

Best Houseboat Ever
Rented this beauty for my daughter’s birthday. We could have stayed anywhere but I wanted something different since it was my daughter’s birthday. This houseboat was the perfect solution. It’s spacious, had plenty of amenities, the heaters worked great (yes it was 30 degrees at night), the host is so accommodating and responsive. Being on the river is peaceful, relaxing and so quiet. We loved every minute of it and didn’t want to leave. The golf cart definitely came in handy for my elderly mother as the boat is located a ways from the parking lot. The decor is music themed and charming. The owner even left some flowers and a birthday card for my daughter. I highly recommend this as a place to stay but I probably shouldn’t because it’s already booked the next time we are coming to town. So glad we decided to try something new! Thanks Fonz for the quick replies and being such an accommodating host.

Bucket List Birthday!
Houseboat was wonderful! Everything just as described and in pictures. Four of us girlfriends celebrated my birthday here. Decks are wonderful for enjoying the fresh air and the river. Walked to dinner two nights and 6 min drive to Market Square for wonderful shopping and dining. Mattresses were so comfortable. Super place to get away!
