About this property

Capricornus: Oceanside Vacation

  • Summary:

    Stay a weekend. Stay a week! All of the amenities of home are included in this spectacular apartment-on-the-water in the heart of Boston's North End. Enjoy amazing harbor views and cool ocean breezes in the light-filled stateroom. Invite friends over for drinks on the enormous deck. This is truly Boston's most unique and memorable vacation experience.



    Unlike other boats, HouseBoat Capricornus offers unparalleled comfort and convenience in a beautifully designed, spacious cabin.



    The Neighborhood:

    Conveniently located in the heart of downtown Boston at Lewis Wharf, this boat is just steps away from the New England Aquarium, Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall, the North End, Boston Garden, a public ice skating rink, and countless other things to see and do.



    Getting Around:

    Short walk (less than 10 mins) to Aquarium, North Station and Government Center subway stations



    The adjacent parking lot charges $30-35 for 24 hours (this does not include in-and-out privileges)



    Looking for a different type of transportation? Book a tour of the Boston Harbor with our partners, Red Top Boats, for a water taxi service or boat charter.



    Other Things to Note:

    Because we are in the heart of Boston the only parking option is the adjacent lot "Lewis Wharf Parking" (or any lot in the area if this one is full). Guests are responsible for this cost.
