The problem.... what do I do when I return to help protect my high risk family members from a potentially life threatening illness? One that I have been exposed to in caring for these patients. An illness that sometimes has no symptoms for weeks at a time. My troubles were laid to rest after an inquiry and short conversation with Micheline Fortier, the resort manager, at Daytona Beach RV Resort regarding the possibility of a short term rental to quarantine. Micheline and the staff at the resort were incredibly generous and informed me that they would have a cabin set up and ready for me upon my return and that they were refusing to take payment for my 2 week stay as a thank you. I was blown away! Thee staff at the resort were extremely helpful and accomadating as my travel schedule changed several times due to fluctuations in the caseload out west. I was expecting a small cabin with bare necessities upon my arrival but was again blown away with the accommodations! It was one of about 20 in a group of beautiful, brand new, modular home type cabins. The unit was stocked with all essential linens, plate ware, furniture, and appliances. I spent most evenings relaxing on the fan cooled, furnished front porch. The park was quiet. Clean and the other guests were all friendly and fun. What I thought was going to be a drudging 2 week quarantine turned out to be a peaceful staycation retreat and I was really sorry to let the cabin go at the end of my stay. I will definitely be recommending the accommodations here to friends, family, and other traveling professionals in the future. And I wouldnt at all be surprised if I stay here for a few days in the future to hideout from life and just unwind. Thank you so much for this wonderful gift and retreat by the

To say only that "we had a great time" would be an understatement! This is a well-run operation using great boats in an absolutely beautiful part of natural Florida. The houseboats are small (you did see that the business is named "Tiny Houseboats," right?), but they make up for that in their ability to get into places on the St. Johns River that few other boats would dare to go. The owners - Rick and Carrie - have the vessels well-maintained and perfectly-equipped to ensure a wonderful river adventure. They are easy to pilot, and use next to no gas at all. We plan to make this an annual trip, and I highly recommend Tiny Houseboat Adventures for great fun and relaxation on the St. Johns River!

We were greeted by the captain, a very funny and knowledgeable man. Once we are seated he goes over the safety rules. The boat sails off and we go out an hour away. Throughout this ride the captain shares the history of the area, facts about wildlife and his funny jokes! As you can see by the pictures I uploaded it is definitely a sight to behold. We saw native birds, beautiful eagles, turtles and yes lots of alligators! After we arrived back we had dinner at Blackwater Inn again a magnificent ending to the day. I highly recommend this tour, makes for a great date or nice way to spend the day. Fee is worth it $25 per person.

The price is 25.00 per person which isn't a bad price. The boat is clean and in good shape and even has a bathroom on board. The trip lasts 2 hours and is packed full of humor and facts about the st. Johns and Florida in general. I learned a whole bunch of things I never knew and I've lived in Florida for 35 years. We saw alligators, birds, manatees, and local flora and fauna. We saw several bald eagles and even went into an alligator nest with 20 / 30 babies scurrying around. The whole experience was wonderful. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone interested in two hours of humor and interesting facts about Florida.
