Houseboat Heaven!
My kids, husband and I loved staying here. The boat was very clean and comfortable, plenty of space for the 4 of us. The location can’t be beat. Sitting on the top deck in the evening was lovely. The Badger Island Marina staff are beyond friendly and wonderful. We loved every single thing about our stay.

The boat was fully equipped with everything that is needed for a weekend event. Loved the area for our first time house boat experience. We had a problem with the electricity and heat which required us to reach out to the emergency text number that was provided. No one got back to us so the night and morning was a bit chilly. The overall experience, we will return!!

Excellent Experience
We could not have been more pleased with our stay at the Reef. The houseboat was amazing; it was clean, spacious and well furnished. The time spent on the top deck was splendid. The location is perfect being close to both Kittery and Portsmouth. We are already talking about our next stay in the future.

Wonderful experience on The Reef! Location was amazing, houseboat was beyond my expectations, gorgeous views, exceptionally clean, and great communication with property manager. Only negative was that our two night stay was too short! Will most definitely be back. A++++
