We loved our stay in Cudjoe. Spent a lot of time fishing off the deck and watching the feeder fish at night. No fish were caught, but it was fun. Beds were comfortable. Close to all the main Key attractions, but far enough away for a relaxing atmosphere. The security fee is now 125, which is different than listing on VRBO. Definitely come back again.
We are hesitant about venture outdoor but the more we were there we loved it. We are planning to bring the kids maybe in the fall. Bob was awesome with responding. We loved fishing at night! Loved the trip over all.
Seamless stay. Great location with a lot of extras. Kayaks and bikes, we also rented a golf cart for our stay. Very clean and comfortable.

Thank you, guys, for staying with us. Both beds are Queen beds; it's funny we had just purchased two beds about a month ago. The most important is that you had FUN and hopefully we will see you again next year. Bob N Spring
We had a very relaxing time here. VO is convenient to many locations and activities. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t the best for the first few days but we still were able to enjoy fishing from the dock and relaxing by the pool. The morning sunrise views were beautiful.
Weve stayed here twice now. It offers great views, great location, great hosts, my only suggestions is the beds could use some upgrading.

About the host
Hosted by Spring and Bob Loomis
We've been vacationing in The Florida Keys for many years. Every year, we said "now is the time" and we looked at all the cottages that were on the market at that time. But we were never able to find the "right" one. We wanted a cottage that had all the features that WE wanted when we visited Venture Out. And at the same time, we wanted a place that would be appreciated by people who wanted to have the same "at home on vacation" feeling that we did in a rental, and at a reasonably affordable price. We finally found it with our little Dolphin House. We hope you will enjoy it! It had to be right on the water and enough dockage to accommodate a decent boat. It had to have good views and good light. It had to have nice bedrooms, baths, a great and spacious kitchen (KraftMaid), and it had to have high quality and level floors. We wanted to be part of a community that had its own fantastic features-- And Venture Out has that in its enormous pool (also a spa) and wonderful kiddie pool, its lighted tennis courts, basketball court, Bocci Ball, little playground, nice meeting room and rec room, a nice on-property store and lots more we have yet to discover. For people who care about such things, it even has municipal water and sewer! So this is our home away from home. And we want to share it with people who will enjoy it as much as we do! Welcome to Springs Venture Out Dolphin House!
Why they chose this property
Way too great to keep this hidden JEM to ourselves, so we hope you and your family will enjoy and love this place as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
One of most amazing views off the back deck and a great community that seems like everyone just live like we are all in Paradise Wait we are.
