Cozy on the water

We stayed for a long weekend. It was great to be right on the wharf! The food around us was great! Room was clean and easy to access. There was breakfast included at a local cafe which was scrumptious.

We stayed for two nights in this quiet, small community. The breakfast provided by Imagine was excellent. However, it would be more convenient if each room had its own kettle and hair dryer, so we wouldn’t have to return them to the outside area after every use, but we appreciate the effort and hope our feedback can help improve the experience for future guests.

Loved the idea of sleeping on the water. Property was relatively quiet considering the owner lives above and a second unit right next door. Shared air blower/kettle not ideal as wasn't available when needed. There was no tv (which is good and bad) but be aware. Loved our included breakfast at Imagine Cafe. Room was smaller but very clean and sufficient.

Enjoyed my stay. It was a bucket list item! It was clean! It was quiet. There are robes and I love dark towels! The bed is warm with a firm mattress. At home I have a 4 inch memory foam topper, so a firm mattress was a very different sleep for me. My favorite was having a seal swim by as I was having my morning coffee! The Mexican restaurant is open through winter which is lovely! It’s steps away from the front door! I didn’t take in breaky in the provided places she offered. I brought my own. I like breaky quiet in my pjs. The host, Carlene, was lovely! Very friendly! If you are coming during the winter months, and you struggle with warm feet, I’d suggest bringing slippers! I was glad I packed them. She does have an area rug, but walks to bathroom or fridge get cold on the feet! I’d definitely stay again!

Murphy bed, bathroom, dresser with fridge and coffee station. The floor can be cold on the feet. Bring your slippers.

Fisherman’s Wharf is a vibrant area right on the water. For me the location was well situated near family I was visiting. The houseboats are a nice addition and I’m glad I got to experience staying on one.

Disliked: Amenities
Room was very small when you look online it portrays to look like your renting the hole unit not a bed was very disappointing. We gathered our stuff and got a nice room at the magnolia hotel. My own fault for not looking more clearly into this but way to small for a couple to enjoy
