Moored at Griffens Marina Blanchetown and Mannum to provide clients with a choice of departure points in a Quality Houseboat, and setting new standards of accommodation on the Murray River, ours is the only fleet of quality houseboats in South Australia which offers individual bathroom facilities to each queen-sized bedroom.

With our new range of ensuite houseboats, you do NOT have to share bathroom facilities on your houseboat holiday any longer.

That's because we know that no matter how much you love your family and friends, you also love your privacy.

"South Australia's First Houseboat Ensuite Fleet" currently comprises 3 houseboats - with additional purpose planned ensuite houseboats being built as required :-

MURRAY ENTERTAINER - 8/10 berths - a very special houseboat - has automatic on-demand 240 volt electrics - a home theatre DVD system - superbly fitted out with modern coordinated furnishings - large living areas and FIVE reverse cycle air-conditioned bedrooms ALL WITH INDIVIDUAL ENSUITE BATHROOM FACILITIES.

MURRAY EXPLORER - 10/12 berths - has very spacious living areas on both the bottom deck and the top deck - and also has FIVE queen sized air- conditioned bedrooms ALL WITH INDIVIDUAL ENSUITE BATHROOM FACILITIES.

MURRAY MATRIX - 6 -8 berths - a very spacious and beautifully fitted out up-market boat with 4 queensized bedrooms -  ALL WITH INDIVIDUAL ENSUITE BATHROOM FACILITIES. Murray Matrix is moored at Mannum.

MURRAY MEANDERER - 6/8 berths - has beautiful colour coordinated fittings and furniture and FOUR air-conditioned queen sized bedrooms ALL WITH INDIVIDUAL ENSUITE BATHROOM FACILITIES. Murray Meanderer is moored at Morgan.

We also own SHORE TO PLEASE - a very attractive 2 queen sized bedrooms 1 bathroom 2/6 berth boat which is extremely popular with honeymooners and couples who just want to be alone. This boat is also very suitable for a small family. Shore to Please is moored at Mannum.

Murray Entertainer and Murray Explorer are moored 3 kms above Lock 1 at Blanchetown so the water levels do not fluctuate overnight and we always have plenty of deep water ideal for boating, swimming and fishing.

Blanchetown - just one and a half hours by car from Adelaide through the Barossa Valley and two and a half hours from Mildura - is known as the "KEY TO THE RIVERLAND"'s beautiful wines, citrus and nut growing regions - which produces 60% of the wine and 80% of the citrus fruits and nuts grown in South Australia.

We can arrange transfers to and from the river for interstate and overseas visitors who arive by plane, train or bus.

Well known Riverland golf courses and wineries eg Banrock Station Winery and Wetlands are all just a short drive away.

A holiday in the Riverland is a holiday in the sunshine as the Riverland also has more sunshine hours per day per year than the Gold Coast!

We believe that the section of the river between Blanchetown and Morgan is one of the safest and most picturesque sections of the entire Murray river system. You will see high cliff faces full of nesting birds, large shallow backwaters and lagoons with water birds and great for canoeing, long easy walking trails, and best of all very little river traffic - the next marina downstream is 3 days away - and at the same time we also have dozens of good safe mooring sites.

All of this ensures that you will always have the most restful, tranquil and enjoyable river holiday possible - on a QUALITY HOUSEBOAT. For the best River Murray houseboat holiday think Quality Houseboats.
