My sister and I had a wonderful stay at Lisa's and Angus' houseboat and hope to return for another visit. They were terrific hosts with suggestions of things to do in keeping with our interests in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Staten Island and nearby restaurant recommendations (we ate at a delicious Turkish restaurant nearby - Lisa's favorite). We did some kayaking, too, which was fun. The houseboat is a great place to stay while visiting NYC; we recommend it. We felt very safe and the neighbors were friendly. We ate a few meals on the rooftop deck which was a lot of fun. Very relaxing!
