A houseboat vacation is an amazing experience for people of all ages, and it’s becoming a popular option for families with kids.

Heading to Las Vegas in May? Sure, the weather will be warmer, but that doesn’t mean you have to stay cooped up in your hotel room until evening time. Las Vegas and the surrounding area are filled with outdoor adventure and it’s calling your name.

For many travelers, one of the most enjoyable aspects of a houseboat vacation is cooking onboard the boat. Preparing your meals and cooking them while you are on the houseboat allows you to enjoy quality time with those you are traveling with in a relaxed, comfortable and home-like atmosphere. When your meal is finished, you can dine on the deck and enjoy the panoramic views. There’s nothing quite like private, waterfront dining.
