Welcome to "Our Keys Home"
You will not be disappointed in this quaint, quiet home in the heart of this paradise known as Key Largo. Located ocean side at mile marker 102, it's 45 minutes from the Miami Airport and less than a mile south of John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park. Also, right around the corner are major stores such as K-mart, Publix and Bealls Outlet. We are just one hour away from Marathon and 2 hours away from Key West.
This remodeled, private mobile home with addition is on a large lot in a quiet neighborhood. Calling this a "mobile home" is not a fair description because the addition makes this feel like a house. It has two bedrooms, a full bath, living room, kitchen, and a 10’ x 35’ screened porch, great for entertaining or just relaxing. The tastefully landscaped large (100’ x 60’) completely fenced yard is big enough for off street parking for your cars and/or boat. Two extra long 100' hoses are supplied for rinsing your boat after a day of diving, snorkeling, fishing or cruising.
We encourage pet owners to bring their pets! We are pet friendly with no restriction on the size of dogs. We have 2 dog doors for your pooch to come and go as they please!
Included is the use of the extra large washer and dryer, Duo Grill (gas or charcoal) barbeque grill, along with outside patio seating and a hammock to just plain relax on. We pride ourselves on the upkeep and cleanliness of Our Keys Home. Each time guests leave, we change not only the sheets & pillow cases, but comforters and pillow shams too. We also provide spare linens, towels, wash cloths, and there is a fully-equipped kitchen with everything you'll need for to prepare meals during your stay.
No need to pack everything, just bring your luggage and enjoy!
We've been told "Our Keys Home" is much bigger than it appears in the pictures, so here are the sizes of the rooms:
Living Room: 19 x 9'6" 180 Sq Ft
Kitchen: 17'4" x 9'6" 164+ Sq Ft

Year Purchased: 2003
Why the Owner Chose Largo Gardens
Not originally intended as a rental, Our Keys Home was bought after a long & exhaustive search for the perfect (for us) home. The location was choosen for it's prominity to the mainland and all the things there are to do in Key Largo. The neighborhood was a big selling point. It's close to everything, but quiet & safe with friendly neighbors. The yard is huge at 6,000 sq ft.
The Unique Benefits at this Mobile Home
Our guests love the fact that they are staying at a fully furnished, very comfortable home. Being able to bring their pets and know they are safe in the yard is great too. (after all- pets need vacations too!) Many guests have commented on how clean & lovingly well cared for Our Keys Home is. Having use of the State Parks Pass is an added bonus (and money saver!) Having the fully stocked kitchen is also a money saver- no need to buy all the spices & condiments needed for day to day cooking.

The description and photos of this property are very accurate, the gazebo in the yard is an excellent place to relax . . the home is very clean, well maintained and so well organized . . everything you need is provided and it is perfect for the dogs. The two doggie doors provided my two terriers with access to the outside as well as the screened in porch where they loved to lay in the sun. Dave was very helpful with any questions I had and the pass to the Pennekamp Park he provided was the highlight of my trip. The nature trails there are wonderful for walking the dogs (one is a boardwalk thru the mangroves) and I had the place pretty much to myself in early morning trips. This is an amazing park with snorkel and beach areas, kayaking, scuba diving, picnic and camping areas. The house is in an excellent location with Publix grocery just down the road, bike paths, great restaurants and access to the Everglades. It is a nice quiet neighborhood where I felt very safe even travelling alone. Thanks to Dave and April for sharing their lovely place.

The Inside Story

Review Submitted: 07/28/11
My wife and I stayed in this Keys Home in Oct of 2010 and June of 2011. We were delighted with it both times. I call this review the Inside Story for two reasons. One is that the exterior shot of this property doesn't begin to do it justice. The second is that I own and operate vacation rentals for a living, and so have an insider's perspective to contribute. As to the first reason, the exterior view appears to be a doublewide trailer. I can assure you that the inside is spacious, very well furnished and equipped, and immaculately clean. In particular, there is no evidence that pets are permitted in this rental, even though they are. No pet hair or faint lingering scents anywhere. Non-pet-owners needn't worry at all on this account. In addition the grounds are spotless, too. The very large screened lanai or porch is barely visible in the exteior photo. It, too, is well furnished and comfortable and this is where you'll spend much of your time, from morning coffee to evening dinners, whether from the large and capable kitchen or carryouts from Publix or one of the numerous nearby restaurants. The one caveat I have applies only to the very tall. I am six-four and the kitchen light fixture and I coexist in a mutual, if wary, respect! As to the second reason, the owners have really streamlined the rental process for their guests. They have a compact lease agreement (and believe me, you do want a signed lease from the owner of any vacation rental.) They have no cleaning fee, they do expect their guests to take good care of things and leave the property in substantially the same condition they found it. (Cleaners do come in to launder linens and make up the beds, among other things, after each guest leaves.) They have many consumable kitchen staples in the house such as condiments, spices, paper goods and cleaning supplies. They ask, but don't require, their guests to replace those items they use up. They provide a pass to the Pennekamp Park, a savings for those of us that bring our boats and launch there or use the snorkeling and glass-bottom boat tours (highly recommended) located there. In short, the owners have eliminated as many extra costs as they can for you and provided things many other rentals do not. A note about the location: It is hard to find a place in the keys that is both quiet and traffic free, but close to the places you want to go. There is no highway noise here yet you are only blocks from groceries or Pennekamp.

My family and I stayed at "Our Keys home" last April and we loved it! Although we did not bring our pets, it was still perfect for us! It was very clean for a pet friendly home. We have an 8yr old daughter and 2yr old son. The home is not "childproof" for most children. There are many nice, glass and ceramic decor but our children know what they are supposed to touch and play with and what not! They loved the cute tropical decor and the big bath tub! It was private where we coud relax on the patio while the kids played in the fenced in yard. We spent our first few days just lounging around. There is a friendly cat, "Boots" who lives across the street and he will come visit you. The kids really liked playing with Boots. Good location near many stores and attractions. Pennekamp Park pass a huge plus!!! The owners are very nice and helpful! I would definatley stay again next time we visit Key Largo!

My husband and I spent a full month here. It was the most relaxing and enjoyable time we have ever spent in Florida. Key Largo truly lives up to its name.."Paradise" and Our Keys Home was the perfect place to be. The neighbors are friendly and helpful. Our dog was totally comfortable. The amenities were beyond what we expected... tv in every room and air conditioning in every room as well. John Pennekamp State Park was so great we went there everyday, thanks to the free pass provided. Thanks Dave and April for sharing your wonderful home. Charlie and Louise

Just returned from 3 nights in this great clean home. This is the first home I have ever rented which truly meets and exceeds the written description. The home has a fully stocked kitchen as well as plenty of towel and linens. The furniture is comfortable and truly like being in your own home. The home was perfectly centrally located in a quiet neighborhood and just down the road from John Pennekamp State Park. As advertised this is a truly pet friendly home. We brought 2 dogs with us for the weekend. The home is fully fenced and even comes with a full container of doggy toys just inside porch. I would happily return to this home and highly recommend it to others.

This home is much bigger than we had anticipated, impeccably clean and adorably decorated. It has everything and anything you need right there at your finger tips. My husband and our girls, (Bailey and Pepper) had a great time relaxing in the yard, enjoying the State Park nearby, cooking on the commercial style outside grill and relaxing in the hammock.The jacuzzi tub was a wonderful surprise after our 12 hour drive to get to the keys, but the drive was worth it. I can honestly say was one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever spent. We enjoyed our evenings on the huge screen in room and "the girls" enjoyed getting friendly with the neighbors. The flat screen TV's and Wi-fi were also much appreciated extras. I understand why the owners David and April call this "Our Keys Home" because it truly is a home away from home. My husband and I have already reserved for a week next year. We can't wait!!

We spent a lovely 2 weeks in this cozy, clean home. It is certainly spacious enough. Dave & April provide all of the conveniences one can image. They were kind enough to allow a friend to stay a few days, and all of the bedrooms had comfortable beds. The kitchen was bright and roomy. The bath provided a nice jacuzzi tub which sure helps with arthritis, and the washer & dryer conveniently located. The living area has a good sized tv screena & tv's are provided in all rooms, and a nice combo of music cd's are available. We all enjoyed the screened in porch very much & utiilized the 2 sitting areas outdoors. Dave & April even love animals & provide a doggy door, toys and a vet's number in case of illness. The yard is spacious and all is surely done as described in the introduction to their home. Nearby is restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, shopping areas, water sport, a dolphin center, and a state park with 2 small beaches & a fish area. A hop, skip & a jumb down the road is Marathon, etc. where on your way you can check out other state parks. The one that is absolutely delightful is 10 miles south of Marathon called Bahia Honda State Park. Lovely beaches, etc. We sue will not forget how kind and helpful and polite Dave & April are and how they made our stay so incredibly easy to enjoy, thank you agin.
