We arrived late on Friday evening, a bit later than expected. Bill and Kathy were totally understanding and patient. The houseboat is completely amazing. Absolutely the best place to stay in Newport.

The beds are incredibly comfortable. Combine that with a periodic gentle rock of the boat with passing boat traffic and you (I know I did) will sleep like never before.

Outside, Newport is at your doorstep or just a short SUP or kayak trip away.

Kathy and Bill are the best hosts ever. They are available and caring but totally unobtrusive.

I am a very picky traveler. I really don't like B&Bs. I always feel like I am encroaching on someones private space. That is definitely not the case with Casey's Houseboat.

If you are thinking about Newport and this place is available, DO NOT hesitate ... just book it and have the best holiday ever.

If you don't book it, I just might get it while you hesitate.

I feel so lucky to have found this fantastic accommodation and even more so for having met Kathy and Bill.
