July 2nd + 3rd "Boston Harborfest /Fireworks 2025 on the Harbor" Fireworks 7/2

What better way to see Boston than on a houseboat in the harbor with plenty of fresh air! Set in historic Boston Harbor in a protected state of the art gated and secure marina the Green Turtle I is the perfect choice for your visit. We are located in Boston's Charlestown Neighborhood which is home to the USS Constitution (Old Ironsides) and the Bunker Hill Monument. Charlestown is Boston's oldest neighborhood.
There are wonderful restaurants within walking distance of the Green Turtle.
The Green Turtle I is an award winning floating houseboat which has 2 separate suites which can accommodate 2 people in each suite. Each suite is very private. The price reflects one suite. We have been awarded The Travelers Choice and The Best of Boston Award.

We are a short distance away from the North End, Fanueil Hall and the Boston Common. It is easy to get around by foot, ferry, free shuttle bus , Uber or Taxi. Catch the Green Line to get to a game at Fabulous Fenway

Each suite has a kitchenette and a private bathroom en suite. The Green Turtle was designed for comfort above all and the only reminder your floating in Boston Harbor is the sound of the gulls, motion of the sea and reflection of the ocean dancing on the ceiling.

Relax reclined on our dock chairs or sip gourmet coffee from the comfort of a well placed rattan chair.

We provide luxury linens and towels. Your suite has a queen sized bed, small window table with rattan chairs and a kitchenette with a small refrigerator and microwave. We stock your suite with coffee, tea, cream, milk and water.

If your dates are not available please check dates on sister suite listing #2752527

Green turtle

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. It was probably the best vacation we’ve taken thank you so much for opening your place to us. I would say the only issue is if there’s ever water problems, but besides the shower issue, we enjoyed every moment of the time we were there.

First Houseboat Stay

Our first time staying in a houseboat; we loved it. The views of the water with the backdrop of the city lights at night and the sun rising and waking us in the morning was so nice. We had a great dinner at Capo for the Frank Sinatra Sunday. We hope to stay there again. Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Bucket list boat house stay

Everyone should have a chance to stay at a boat house once in their life and the Green Turtle was a great way to accomplish that! I probably had some responsibility in missing this detail, but I wasn't aware that the second bedroom would be rented out. As a single woman renting I would have liked to have that been made more clear. Perhaps on confirmation? Otherwise, it was a wonderful stay, with a great restaurant in walking distance, and the setting was a redeveloped historic naval shipyard. Public transportation and historic sites were easily accessible.

Fantastic house boat with everything you need. The water pressure is phenomenal and nice and hot. We enjoyed the snacks and drinks. Our title came from staying here on a severe wind warning weekend . The rocking was the best sleep remedy I have ever had thank you

Really wanted this to turn out different

All communications were smooth property was clean Upon arriving the boat was moving slightly we went to bed woke up and the water was so rough we couldn’t stand up. Taking a shower was almost impossible. We were told we could use one up the street. Freezing cold out so that wasn’t an option. We had to leave the following morning because I was getting violently sick. Instead of keeping the heat running on the owner we told them we would be leaving. We asked for a possible day refund to cover costs to stay at a hotel near by. They answered simply you knew it was a boat sorry it didn’t work out. We would have had no problem paying two night even though we only stayed one. We left the place as clean as we checked in because we didn’t use anything. They charge to “use “ a key fob to get you back in and out. After asking to possibly retrieve that money they sent us a partial credit 56 I know neither of us could know what weather we could have but when the girl checking you in says if you fall in the crack (there a gap between the boat and dock you have to jump in the house) swim to a boat don’t grab the dock clearly there’s a problem. I have never left anyone a bad review and we’ve rented 50 homes over the years this is not insulting someone just hoping maybe they change the description letting people know there’s a chance you’ll be sick or the amount the houseboat moves. Thank you

Fantastic Experience

We absolutely loved this property. We had never stayed on the water before, but the owners made the process seamless. We were greeted at the gate, given a tour, instructions explained and were given numbers of there were any issues. Great information was provided on what to expect on the property as well as recommendations for things to do, restaurants and activities. All the neighbors were very kind and we consistently felt very safe on the harbor. We would definitely book again and hope to bring friends and family to experience it with us.

Rock me to sleep

We enjoyed our time at the Green Turtle. We had everything we needed and then a gentle rocking to sleep on the waves. I wish we could see through the amazing yacht that was parked next to us. The view would’ve been amazing. Nonetheless we’d come back again. Central to all the life of the city, but relaxing and calm among the hustle and bustle. Great hostess. Thank you, Brittany.
