I rented an awesome 56 foot houseboat at Don Pedro for a weekend and had an awesome time. The boat was comfortable, well stocked and a ton of fun. The staff at Don Pedro marina were awesome. They were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We were a bit nervous about piloting such a huge boat, but the staff was so helpful and set everyone at ease. Anchoring the boat was simple with the instructions that were given and this was one of the most memorable family trips we've taken. Everyone on board from 2 years old to 60 years old had a blast!
The only reason I cannot give a 5 star review is that the Houseboating.org information did not give an address or instructions on how to get to the marina or locate the boat on the day of our arrival which resulted in frustration starting our trip off. The lake is large and there are several camping areas and more than one marina. There was not a single sign for houseboat rentals or forever resorts! We were finally able to find the marina thanks to a helpful park ranger. I would highly recommend some signage or at least detailed information in the emails to future renters.
