Stay on one of Dal Lake's or Nagin Lake's legendary cedar-wood houseboats — intricately carved floating hotels classified from deluxe to super deluxe. Wake up to mist on the lake, take morning shikaras from your front porch, and enjoy Wazwan (Kashmiri feast) served on board.
Nagin Lake houseboats are quieter and less touristy than Dal Lake. Always verify houseboat credentials before booking to avoid touts.
