For more than 55years, Voyagaire has offered the Midwest’s largest and most modern fleet of rental houseboats. Discover abundant wildlife in more than a quarter million acres of shoreline that varies from sheer rock walls to deep, rugged forests or sunny inlets, all home to deer, moose, eagles, loons and more.

Do we have to start our vacation on a certain day? A.You may start your vacation any day. A week is seven nights and there is a three-night minimum. Q. How much fuel will we use during a trip? A.Five to 25 gallons per day are average. Usage will vary widely based on the size of your boat and how much cruising you do. Typically, your boat will not need refueling during a week’s time, but if it does, our hospitality service will deliver fuel. Fuel may also be purchased at various points throughout the park. Q. What is the hospitality service? A.We provide deliveries daily to our guests. Call the lodge the evening before your delivery is required or by 10 a.m. Provide a list of items needed, such as gas, ice, pop or food. The delivery boat will be at your houseboat that afternoon or evening. There is a small, one-time fee for this service. Q.Do we need any special navigation skills or a license to operate a Voyagaire Houseboat? A.A complete set of fully marked charts and an information booklet are aboard each boat. There is a chain of color-coded and numbered buoys running from one end of Voyageurs National Park to the other. Each is reflected on your map. Even first-time houseboaters will find this system easy to follow. Q. Are pets allowed? A. Yes. We accept pets in the lodge and on all houseboats, except the Voyagaire 550 for a non-refundable charge of $10 per night in the lodge or $50 per trip on the houseboats. Pet owners are responsible for cleaning up after their dog and must keep their dog on a leash while at base. Q. Do we need a fishing boat? A. A fishing boat and motor are required with each charter. You may bring your own or rent one. Multiple boats, larger boats, runabouts, bass boats and pontoons are easily towed behind the houseboat with a tow bar supplied. Q. Are there generators? A. The Hot Tub and Deluxe Sportcruisers, Suncruisers, Sunseekers and Voyagaires are equipped with a primary marine generator that produces a noise within the houseboat similar to a refrigerator. These generators operate all the onboard appliances, TV/VCR and air conditioner, plus any small appliances you bring from home. For other houseboats, a small generator may be rented to operate power appliances you bring from home. Q. How are emergencies handled? A. The radio in your houseboat or your personal cell phone (where service is available) may be used to communicate with base. In the case of a medical emergency on your boat, we will respond with our service boat or 911 out of Crane Lake. In some cases, the Voyageurs National Park Rangers may respond. If your houseboat needs servicing while on the water, a service boat will be sent out immediately. If you are using the hospitality service, we will know your location at all times. Q. Where do we get bait and a MN fishing license? A.You can secure both at a local bait shop. Q. Do we need a Canadian fishing license? A. Only to fish in Ontario. Most of the lakes you will be cruising and all of the Voyageurs National Park waters are within the Minnesota boundary. Q. Will a C-PAP machine work on the houseboat? A. Yes, battery packs are suggested and are available for rent at Voyagaire.
