About Us

Houseboating.org is the premier internet source to learn about and to schedule a houseboating vacation. We represent every major houseboating destination in North America including Lake Powell, Lake Cumberland, Lake Mead, Shasta Lake and most every point in between.

We have been in business since 1998 as a part of the Go Travel Sites family of travel websites. We started booking for Lake Powell and now cover an additional 20 destinations.

Our Houseboating Reservation Agents represent something unusual in the world of online travel, a wealth of real world knowledge and experience. You don't reach a call center when you call us, you reach an agent that is friendly and knowlegeable and will answer all of your questions and see through your reservation from start to finish.
