Drive up & park 6 ft from this clean, equipped houseboat in Cypress Cove Marina

Houseboat located on a private road in Cypress Cove Marina. Drive up to private parking for 6 vehicles and walk just steps to the front door to unload your bags and tackle. The living area has plenty of room to hang out and talk about your catch with Sat TV, internet and cell booster. The kitchen has a full refrigerator, microwave, gas oven/range, coffee pot and everything you need to cook your fresh catch. We have 2 bedrooms, one with queen/queen bunks and the other with two sets of twin/twin bunks. The bathroom has a full shower. The covered back deck has a 3 compartment stainless sink, cleaning station, grill, fan, porch swing, mini-fridge and extra seating. We have plenty of boat parking along the side and back porch of the houseboat as well.

Ice machine and washer/dryer included for your convenience.

If you plan on going offshore, we would love to recommend charter companies, just ask!

Good parking and options for entertaining your group such as large living space, modern kitchen and multiple grills as well as a fish cleaning station. Along side docking made it very convenient for our guides and large ice maker was a plus for our personal use.

Awesome place!
Great houseboat in a really nice location at Cypress Cove Marina with pretty views of Cypress trees across the canal. Comfortable beds, good kitchen and everything you need for a stay in Venice. Good, convenient boat parking on the back dock and you can pull your vehicle right to the front door of the house to unload gear. Host Chris was very accommodating and helpful during our stay, and went out of his way to mail something we left behind. Definitely recommend!

Liked the place very much. However there was confusion over the cleaning fee. I blame expedia/VRBO for this, not the owner. I would rent in the future, but not through expedia. If this place was on VRBO I would rent.

Very Nice!
The inside was clean but the outside dock area was covered with spiders, webs, and bugs. I did clear that away as soon as we got there. There are boathouses on both sides which the picture does not show. Overall we had a very nice stay! Fishing off the dock was good and seeing gators swim around was awesome. Would definitely stay again.

Trout House Review
Pros: Great location with ample parking. Comfortably sleeps 4 people. Washer and dryer was a huge benefit. Owners are very quick to respond to messages. Cons: The sewer smell was very strong when we arrived. The owners were very quick to address it, but the smell never really went away. There is no Traeger grill as pictured. And the house wasn’t very clean. (Used snuff pouch on the ground near fridge, crumbs and wrapper pieces on floor in kitchen/living, heavy dust in corners). We went through and cleaned before unpacking our things. (This problem just needs to be addressed with whoever is hired to clean.) Overall a good experience! The space accommodated our group well.

Problems
We only stayed one night there is a major problem with the main ac when you turn it on it fills the house with a raw sewage smell so strong we had to open the door and windows to air out the place so we turned off the ac and tried to sleep in the heat so we left the next day we could not stay another night in those conditions

Quick get away
Was looking for a quick getaway having taken a few days off from work, wanted to do some fishing in the Venice area, but didn't want to make the long round trip same day drive, from baton rouge area. Had never stayed on a houseboat before, although have rented many properties through VRBO in the past. Did not know what to expect, enjoyed every bit of my quick stay, and found that it had all the amenities of any other VRBO that I stayed at in the past. Also is literally right on the water and able to dock my boat right up to it.. The convenience of the Cypress cove Marina just right around the corner made it excellent as well. I did not prepare any meals any cooking in my short stay, as I was alone, and really just staying for the convenience, but after investigation, it definitely has everything you need to enjoy a long stay. From the ice machine on the front deck, to the porch swing, cleaning station, grill on the back deck, was very impressed that a houseboat would have all of these things as you would see in a stationary or fixed camp. I hope to return again, this time for a longer stay, and with company, to really enjoy what this houseboat has to offer..

Frat house on the water
The place had a musky smell and was surfaced clean but pretty dirty. The cabinets and counter top were very nice and the swamp outside was very cool. This a place for a bunch of men fishing, but not a place for a couple or anyone with a mold allergy.
