At Riverglen Marina in White Sands, a few minutes from Murray Bridge and an hour from Adelaide, this two-bedroom houseboat lets guests take a stretch of the Murray at their own pace. The queen and double cabins each open onto a private back deck, while a spa bath sits up on the top deck alongside outdoor furniture, a canopy and a barbecue; the front deck holds a separate table setting for meals on the water. Guests can skipper the boat themselves along the river or book it as a static stay, moored in place for a quieter break. It runs as a small independent operation rather than part of a larger fleet, and recent guests have described the boat as clean and well looked after, with three-night stays turning into the kind of trip people talk about afterwards. A relaxed way to see the Murraylands from the water rather than the highway.
