The Lake Roosevelt Cruise Boat

After getting off the Keller Ferry we stopped at the rental docks. They have these big houseboats to rent for cruising up and down the Columbia River. Two of them had just docked and their guests were unloading their gear. There are black carts you put all of your stuff in to take up to your car. We asked if we could go on board to look one over and the guy said it was okay. ( Actually, there was a long line of these boats all docked and ready to rent. ) These pictures show what we saw and it was fun to imagine taking a cruise on one. Dad thought it would be fun to do a family weekend on one until he saw the price. ha ha For a 3-day weekend it costs $2000 and you can have up to 12 people on board. He still thinks it would be fun. You have to reserve by December in order to get a boat and the down-payment is $500. Well, we can dream can't we. I suppose that isn't too bad considering the days on board and the fun you would have. However, I am not sure if just camping isn't just as fun.
