A must-do experience, the house boat is beautiful and this lake is far calmer than the other one
Pros:

Overall great experience, it was beautiful waking up and looking out across at nature. The host was extremely welcoming and helpful, going out of his way to also show me some of the cultural highlights of the city and making me part of his festival celebrations. The WiFi connection is also very good, I had some work to do, and this was seamless

Cons:

Nothing comes to mind

Pros:

Staying on a houseboat at Nigeen Lake was an unforgettable experience. The location is peaceful and less crowded compared to Dal Lake, which made the whole stay feel more relaxing and authentic. Waking up to the calm waters and beautiful mountain views was truly special.One of the highlights was the shikara ride on the lake, especially during sunset—it was quiet, scenic, and very calming
