Mar-11-2010 Posted under Lake Vacations

Greetings from Lake Roosevelt Houseboat Vacations up here in Kettle Falls! Summer is just around the corner, and it is time to start thinking about your next vacation. There is no better place to look than Lake Roosevelt, where the water is fine, the weather is hot, and the fish are jumping. Our houseboat vacations are a once in a lifetime experience. There is no way to describe how many memories are made on a houseboat with your friends or family, and time stands still. On a houseboat vacation, you can have up to thirteen people to share the experience of sandy beaches, pine trees, and summer fun!

All of our boats include two bathrooms, stainless steel barbecues, fully loaded kitchens, water slides, AC, wet bars, four private states-rooms, two fridges, sound systems, and a re-fueling station for your small boat or jet-ski. Our Supercruisers (62×15) are also available with a hot tub! If you really want to go all out, you can houseboat in luxury with our new Supercruiser Elites (64×16) which come with five private states-rooms, XM Satellite radio, and many more special features!

Instead of waiting until the last minute to go on vacation, plan ahead and book your houseboat vacation now! Our schedule is getting full so go ahead and give us a call at 1-800-635-7585, or visit our website at www.lakeroosevelt.com.

See you on the Lake!

Is Lake Tahoe Good for a Family Vacation ?

Mar-9-2010 Posted under Lake Vacations

We have 2 kids, 1 14 months and the other 5 years. We typically go to Outerbanks NC for vacation for July 4th. We are considering Tahoe instead. How is the wheather in July? We are looking to rent a lake front house for 3k or less. is this feasible? what is there to do?

I answered your other question also- the weather is usually great in July- ideal in fact. You should be able to rent a nice place on the lake. There is tons to do, but of course, the kids will probably be happiest just splashing in the lake! You can take a boat ridde to Emerald bay on the MS Dixie or Tahoe Queen, go hiking at the Visitors Center where you can view the underwater world of the creek in a viewing area, rent bikes, drive over the mountain and explore Virginia City, stop in Carson City and go to the train museum and the Nevada Children’s museum….. plenty to do! have fun!!!

How would you recommend Lake Travis in Texas? Good for a Mini-Vacation from Houston? Party Scene? Expenses? Is there by any chance a place that you can go horseriding by the hour?

Yes, Lake Travis is beautiful and a lot of fun. Just 3 1/2 from Houston, makes it a great mini-vacation spot. It’s also just a short drive into Austin, The "Live Music Capital of the World," Just hit the places on 6th Street.

What car to rent for driving from Salt Lake City to Yellowstone?

Mar-3-2010 Posted under Lake Vacations

This sounds like a silly question but thought I’d ask anyways.

I’ll be vacationing in the Salt Lake City and Yellowstone areas for about 10 days in September. The two of us will have only 2 suitcases. I estimate that we will drive about 1500 miles during our trip, so the car should be comfortable and easy to drive.

Given the altitude and perhaps mountainous driving should we rent a car with 6 cylinders (e.g. Chevy Impala) or will a 4 cylinder engine be adequate (Ford Focus)?

I wouldn’t worry too much about getting a 6-cyl.

Do your homework and you should be able to find a really good deal on a reasonable car. A Ford Focus or Chevy Cobalt will be plenty comfy for two people and could save you a ton of $$$
