A nice houseboat option which has lots of space and excellent upgrades is the 1930′s 2 bedroom home on the Willow Dock.
This dock is a co-op which means your moorage is owned not leased. It is a nice dock and has extras like gas plumbed.

There are hardwood and slate floors, and it is bestowed with a Lake Union moorage slip for a companion boat!
