Summertime activities in West Virginia are boundless, especially ways to stow away for a weekend or longer, like the amazing houseboats you can rent at Sutton Lake Marina. While some houseboat rentals elsewhere many confine you to being tied to the dock the entire time, on a houseboat rental from Sutton Lake Marina, you’ll have the keys to the ship and can take her on more than just a three-hour tour! (Don’t fault us for the lame “Gilligan’s Island” joke…)

Sutton Lake, the 1,520-acre reservoir on the Elk River, is a picturesque place to spend the day, a night, or longer. And these houseboats are a perfect spot to enjoy a night on the water!

Up top, you’ll be able to relax in the shade or the full sun on the spacious 500-square-foot deck. Imagine a breezy and warm summer evening up there watching the sunset over the lake.
