STAYING WITH US
Sorry but we can not accommodate crews staying overnight on Head Race weekends.
However, if you are visiting the Tideway at other times and need somewhere to stay we will do our best to accommodate you. Please contact the Boat House Captain.
Facilities are minimal, as you would expect from a boat house but there are showers, space to sleep on the floors and a secluded garden in which to pitch your tents. We don't generally charge but donations are appreciatived. We have no facility for boat storage but trailers may be left on Duke's Meadows at your own risk.
