Have you ever wondered what it’s like to live on a houseboat? With Rhode Island being a coastal state, it’s certainly not unheard of. Perhaps you’ve seen them bobbing in the harbor and allowed yourself to dream. We’ve recently discovered a charming Airbnb rental that will allow you to live that houseboat life, if only for a night or two. Check out this unique nautical experience.

This houseboat is called The Captain Carl or Casey's Houseboat, and it's located at the north end of Newport Harbor.

You'll be secure on the dock during your stay, so there's no need to worry about navigation.
You'll love taking in the harbor views from the deck with a beverage in hand.

We highly recommend waking up for the harbor sunrise at least once.
This charming houseboat has been fully renovated, featuring beautifully varnished woodwork that will make you feel like you're in an upscale home.

You'll have access to a TV and WiFi, so there's no need to disconnect on your staycation (although you may just want to curl up with a good book).
