Lake Powell: Spring early onto 2009 houseboat deals

If you’re an early bird by nature, then you know well by now that planning vacations way ahead can sometimes save both money and stress. Lake Powell Resorts & Marina is catering to you deserving planners out there with special discounts available now for its 2009 season on Lake Powell, the houseboat haven sitting along the Utah-Arizona border. And this deal rewards the decisive: The earlier you book, the more you save.

Deal: The “Early Bird” package saves you 20% to 35% on houseboat rentals reserved for four or more consecutive days between March 31 and June 14, 2009. Reserve by Dec. 17, 2008, and you’ll get the maximum discount of 35% off. If you book after that but before Feb. 17, 2009, you’ll get a 25% discount. Bookings by April 17, 2009, get a 20% discount.

The deal is valid for 46-foot Voyager, 48-foot Navigator, 53-foot Adventurer and 59-foot Discovery XL houseboats. In addition, those booking under this deal can get as much as 50% off powerboat rentals. See a full price list of discounted prices on the company’s website.

Note: The 46-foot Voyager goes for a discounted rate of about $380 a day, but note that the prices on the website do not include taxes, surcharges, waiver of liability or fuel. The boat will have a full tank of gas (a 46-foot houseboat might hold as much as 110 gallons) upon pickup, and you’ll be required to refill the tank before drop-off.
