The Perfect House For The Perfect Stay!

My wife and I spent over four weeks looking for a home to stay in for our vacation. We absolutely could not of found a better place then this particular property. This property is located on a quite dead-end street with fantastic neighbors and spectacular views of the sunset. The house sits on a clear and deep (12-15 feet) canal. This house had plenty of space down at the dock for our 20' Bay Boat. But, we needed to not go far for fishing fun because the canal was full of a variety of fish right there at the sea-wall! After a long day out fishing and snorkeling around Looe Key, it was nice to come back to the house and have a freshwater hose right at the sea-wall for rinsing down the boat, tackle and our gear. The house offered excellent accommodations for my wife, myself and our 16 year old son. The home is fully furnished and beautifully decorated with "Florida Keys Styling". The kitchen has all utensils and cookware one might need to prepare a wonderful meal. Yet, with all the small local restaurants in the area you may never need to use them, but it is nice to know that they are there. In the evening time my wife and I would catch the sun setting from the comfort of the screened in lanai. Our son would stay in touch with his friends using his laptop and the free wifi internet connection. We will be returning again in the very near future!Did you find this review helpful?

The location is excellent on the south west end of the island and within 30 miles east of Key West and around 20 miles southwest of Marathon. The 14 foot deep canal with concrete dock for securing the boat with a fish cleaning table is located behind the house and overlooked from the back porch with easy access to the south west channel. The patio table and benches located on the dock area next to the canal and the back porch with patio furniture overlooking the canal is excellent for relaxing morning coffee, conversation with spouse or friends or evening drinks. The house is tiled throughout and furnished nicely. The kitchen area is nicely laid out and worked well for preparing snacks for the day out on the water and meals when we returned. The dining room and living room areas are open and connected to make a very large area for family and friends. The storage area on the ground level below the house made it nice for storing the fishing, water sport equipment and toys, as well as the opening for parking the boat trailer or vehicles. One evening I saw a key deer walking in the lot across the canal. I would definitely recommend this lovely home as a vacation or business rental if visiting the keys between Marathon to Key West to family members and friends.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We stayed at this wonderful home and had a great time. It is close to restaurants and shopping and yet far enough away to enjoy the quiet environment that the keys are known for. There were key deer in the neighborhood that are extremely tame and hundreds of fish in a crystal clear canal behind the home. The dock was located a few feet from the open water making easy access to fishing and diving. The rooms in the home are large and the ceilings are high, giving it an open feeling. The home is well kept and very clean. We really enjoyed our stay and plan to return.Recommended for: Sightseeing, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+.
