You'll also have the chance to see wildlife in their natural habitat. You and your loved ones can take in the fresh air while observing local birds and other exciting animals like wombats, kangaroos, and gliders.

Different types of houseboats offer different views, so make sure to consider that when choosing your houseboat. If your boat has a deck, make sure to stand on it for a moment and take in the view.

Is this how you want to take in your holiday views for years to come? You'll know you have found the one when it feels and looks just right.

When you contact us at Eildon Houseboat Sales, you can set up an appointment to tour any of our houseboats with decks. Touring a boat is a great way to figure out what you're looking for.

Create Unique Memories

At Eildon Houseboat Sales, we all have made memories of spending holidays on Lake Eildon, so we know how much of a special experience it is.

Family houseboats create special memories that will last a lifetime. A houseboat gives everyone a chance to try activities they love or want to try for the first time. The water offers fun for the whole family, no matter what age everyone on board is.  

A houseboat holiday is special in that you'll experience swimming, jumping off the boat, laying in the sun, and enjoying meals al fresco together.

Holiday homes are restrictive in that you have to travel to any activities you want to do, and everyone may want to do different things. On a houseboat, everyone can enjoy the experience as they wish at the same time.

Luxury Houseboats Need Less Maintenance

On the practical side, a luxury craft like a houseboat is also much less maintenance than a holiday home.

As far as everyday maintenance goes, houseboats are much easier to keep clean. There is no yard to upkeep and no grass to worry about keeping trim on a houseboat. That means you also never have to hire anyone for landscaping or housekeeping.

There will also be no need for pool maintenance since a houseboat gives you the gift of natural lake or ocean water every day.

Let Your Loved Ones Enjoy It

Another great perk to owning a houseboat is that you can bless your loved ones by letting them enjoy it too.

You know how fun your houseboat is. Houseboat rentals are becoming more popular with tourists and Australian holidaymakers because they know they're more fun than a holiday home.

Your loved ones will get a chance to experience the same joys and make fond memories just as you and your family have.

It's also a great alternative to letting visiting friends and family stay in your guest bedroom. Why give them a bedroom when they could enjoy a whole boat? It's a fantastic way to let them soak up the natural beauty of Australia.

It's a fun, quirky option with every accommodation and comfort someone on holiday could ask for. You can even add personal touches to make it more enticing.

You can decorate it, provide a bag of coffee, and leave maps and menus inside as guides for visiting guests. Add some magic to your deck with twinkle lights and a stereo system. Remember, you also get to enjoy any upgrades you make.

Have a Space for Special Occasions

Finally, one of the best reasons to own a houseboat is that you will always have a special place to go for celebrations or romantic getaways. You will never need to worry about booking a hotel last-minute or checking or cancelling reservations.

Whether it's a birthday, engagement, or a surprise promotion at work, you'll always be able to whisk yourself away to your houseboat and enjoy it however you wish.

You also don't have to worry about cleaning an entire home for your celebrations like you would with a holiday home. A quick cleaning and a few lights or decorations will transform your houseboat into a place for your loved ones to enjoy themselves.
