Camping On The Water In Rockaway

1 site · Lodging1 acre · New York City, NY
Relax not by the water but on the water with lots of fresh air, lots of sun, and a 7 minute walk to the beach. Freja is a 34' 1970 Nautaline and she's been our home away from home for 9 years now. We love her dearly and would like that all guests treat her with respect. She is 54 years old now and has quite a number of quirks. To be clear, do not expect a pristine, hotel-like experience. Staying on Freja is like camping in a cabin on the water. There is a small fridge, microwave and a toaster oven and basic dishes, cups, silverware. Stove does not work at the moment. There is a sink on board, and we use a gallon water jug to do the dishes that is filled on the dock. The main bed is long and narrow and roughly full size, so just big enough for two. There is smaller bed for humans under 5'10" that can be created in the pilot house. You need to bring your own sheets, pillowcases and towels. A sleeping bag is best. There is one space heater and a fan. The bathrooms and hot showers are on land near the marina office, a two minute walk down the dock. Sorry, we don't rent to people with kids or pets. Only 2.5 blocks away from the Boardwalk and long stretches of amazing beaches along the peninsula. Easily accessible via the A Train Subway, buses, car and the ferry from Wall Street (shuttle bus drops you off by the Marina). Right outside the Q22 bus, direct to Jacob Riis Beach and Fort Tilden. There are plenty of things to do in The Rockaways, including lots of highly rated bars and restaurants, water sports, and other art/cultural happenings throughout the year.
