We loved our stay on the houseboat! It was a fitting culmination of our trip to Netherlands. The kids and I were so happy to have the experience of "sleeping under river level ". The boys were shocked by the large size of the bathroom. The tea was a lovely touch. The view of the Amstel River out the window was perfect. So peaceful and relaxing to watch the rowing teams skim across the water in the morning. Barbara herself was a joy - super helpful, responsive and a wonderful conversationalist. We only wished we could stay longer!
