About this docked boat rental

Charles Andrew joins Tessie Ann (HA 285122) and Nancy Lou (HA as part of a fleet of non-powered houseboats moored in Riggs Cove by Riggs Cove Rentals LLC at Derecktor Maine LLC, a full service marina in Georgetown, Maine. Charles Andrew has accommodations for five and is accessed by way of the included 16' skiff with 6 hp motor which can also be used to explore the coves and islands within the cruising area. Leisure, peace, romance and, best of all, no boating experience required! Three night minimum stay required.


A Romantic Getaway: The full bulwarks (high sides) of our houseboat Charles Andrew provide protection from the wind, but better yet, virtual seclusion while lounging on deck. Levolors on all the windows provide privacy at night, and shade during the day.
Cook on board with the three burner propane stove and oven, or go ashore to The Osprey Restaurant on the Derecktor Robinhood Marina site.

Our Beautiful Setting: While you're swinging on a mooring in Riggs Cove, ospreys nest nearby and dive for fish, seals bob by, lobster boats work their traps, and sailors and yachtsmen arrive and depart to and from ports unknown. A glass of wine, a good book, your best friend(s), 360 degrees of water views.
Cool nights? Two marine Fireplaces. Too much sun and salt? Walk in shower with on demand hot water. A little more than life at sea.

Gunk holing, adventure and remembering: exploring with the skiff or the 2 kayaks on board along the miles of shoreline in the cruising area. There's history here, sea people, traders, fishermen, boat builders. Want to come? Three night minimum stay required. The Charles Andrew, Tessie Ann (Home Away 295122) and Nancy Lou (HA 3546511).

Weather didn't cooperate as we might have liked but we loved staying in the harbor listening to the fish jump, watching the seals pop their heads above water and seeing the bald eagles fly right over our deck.

We had a wonderful experience on the Charles Andrew. It was a fun adventure. The marina is charming and there is so much to keep you busy on and around the houseboat. We loved exploring the islands by skiff and by kayak. The Osprey is a delicious restaurant on the property. Jimmy was so helpful and gave us all the information we needed about the Charles Andrew and the local happenings. We will be back for sure!!!

Everything about the Charles Andrews was spot on. We received good instruction as to operating our skiff as well as the operation of onboard specifics - water, heat, safety, etc. My daughter and I enjoyed exploring the quiet coves around us. We were seeking peace and tranquillity and definitely achieved this, be it through waking up with almost 360 degree views from our bedroom, to sitting on deck enjoying coffee/breakfast, lunch. Dinner was a great treat at the marina on-sight Osprey Restaurant….so much that we ate there all three nights. The Charles Andrew was exactly what we desired and received. We would definitely return.

This property was so lovely! It exceeded our expectations. The location is so gorgeous and the vibrant marina is a fun place to call home. The team who helped us were all so great and the time on the boat was extremely peaceful. I'd love to return with my kids someday. We had a blast zooming around in our little dingy. Watching the lobster pots getting pulled right off the bow was delightful and, of course, we kept a lookout for Reggie the seal and saw him every day. Give one of these houseboats a try!

This was our first trip to Maine and we will definitely be back. The location of the houseboat is convenient yet secluded. The manager Jim was very helpful, and friendly. He even played us a few tunes on his guitar one evening. Our expectations were far exceeded! The entire family wanted to stay longer!
