There are no Houseboats on the market today that can provide the level of Interior comfort That the Riverlodge 40 Classic can provide.

While you’re in that shower you won’t run out of hot water from the standard tankless propane fired hot water heater located in the linen closet.

Our windows are built to withstand the harsh Canadian Winters, or the hot South Florida Summers. All wood interiors finished in your choice of stain or solid colors, Behind the interior walls you will find the wall, floor and roof cavities filled with closed cell spray foam, Impervious to moisture closed cell foam provides the highest level of R-value possible, while adding structural integrity to the overall cabin.
