Carrie, I'm so glad you and the family had a great time at the Layton House. The kids were awesome; hope they enjoyed their spring break kayaking, swimming, fishing and boating in the Middle Florida Keys. We would love you to come back anytime. Thank you for keeping the house so tidy. Enjoy your summer! Linda

Hi Steve, I'm thankful you made it home safely and that you are feeling better! It was truly a pleasure meeting you and your wife and I hope you are able to return to the Layton House and get that fishing trip in! Thank you for leaving our home in such excellent condition! Linda

It was such a pleasure having you and your family here at the Layton House, Roseanne. How exciting for your son-in-law to hook his first tarpon! The kids seemed to enjoy the pool and the kayaks as well as their first snorkeling trip over our beautiful reefs! What a fantastic idea for your Christmas gift to the family and one I'm certain they are not likely to forget. Thank you for taking such good care of our property. We'd love to have you back any time your schedule permits. Linda

Barbara, It was so nice having you and the family here for your winter break from the cold. Burrrr! I'm sorry I didn't get to meet you but I had a few conversations with your daughter and her husband. I hope you all enjoyed the pumpkin bread; she may be making it for you in the future! Thank you for taking such good care of our family home. We'd love to have you back any time. Take care. Linda

So happy you, Shannon and the girls had a nice visit at the Layton House. It was a pleasure having you and I hope your parents will be able to join you next time. I look forward to seeing you in the near future. Have a healthy, joyous New Year! Linda Lange

Dave, Thank you for your review of the Layton House. This helps others know what to expect. It was a delight having you and your family here and I hope you were able to relax and enjoy the beauty. The pool, beach and kayaks are a favorite with many of our guests. I hope you will return again in the future. In the meantime, take care of each other and appreciate every day God gives us. Linda

Debbie, It was so nice meeting you and your family. I'm glad you enjoyed our heated saltwater pool. It provides a wonderful way of relaxing after a fun-filled day. Have a healthy 2023 and come back and see us anytime. Linda

Thank you, Travis! It was a joy having you and the family here at the Layton House. I loved hearing the kids laughter as they played in the pool and fished from the dock. The house was so clean when you left it was hard to imagine 3 young children there for a week. Thank you for keeping our family home so nice. I look forward to seeing you again next spring!!!

William, it was so nice to have you and your family here for your 4th of July celebration! I hope the group enjoyed our property and I look forward to having you all again in the future. Linda

Tom and Susan, it was such a pleasure having you here at the Layton House. I wish you could have stayed another week to enjoy more of God's beauty that surrounds us from the varied sunsets, the sea life, the landscape and so much more. We are blessed indeed. I hope you are able to return with the rest of your family in the near future. You are always welcome. Thank you for taking such good care of our family home. Have a wonderful summer! Linda

Taylor, I am so pleased you and the family enjoyed our Bayside retreat. My grandfather was a visionary for sure and had dreams of building his own town. He carved out this piece of paradise for the family and I am blessed to see people build lasting memories here. The beach and large circular pool are always fun for the children. Look forward to seeing you again.

Carol, I am so happy you and your family enjoyed your Christmas vacation at the Layton House. The Coastal Christmas Tree is a fairly new addition and popular with our guests. It is my pleasure and labor of love maintaining a five-star reputation for our waterfront property so that families and groups can enjoy the beautiful 2+ acres my grandparents, Del and Mary Layton, founded. With all the kayaking and enjoying the gorgeous weather, I hope you had time to read, Pioneer in the Florida Keys, my grandfather's book retelling the history of founding "his" City, and the early days in the Florida Keys. Other books are available in our library as well. We look forward to having you back in the near future. Have a blessed and healthy 2019! Linda

Hi Kenneth and Family, You were wonderful guests and I appreciate how nicely you left our home. I hope you are able to return to the Layton House in the near future.

Travis, It was a pleasure having you and the guys here for mini-lobster season. I appreciate you taking care of our one-of-a-kind family property. I'm glad the 70' boat dock worked for both boats and that you had immediate access to the Bay and the Atlantic. I look forward to having you and your family back again. Enjoy the rest of the summer. Linda

Thank you, Michael, for your response! I'm so glad you and your friends had such a good time at our beautiful historic property named after the Founder of the town, my grandfather, Del Layton. It was nice to hear you enjoyed the kayaks, fishing from the dock, swimming in the large heated pool and simply relaxing and playing games together. That's my idea of a vacation!!! The two downstairs bedrooms are on the smaller side as they are part of the original homestead. When my grandparents became more established with the Long Key Fishing Camp and the Del-Mar Fishing Charters, they added the huge open kitchen and dining area where groups love to come and hang out. The upstairs houses the ginormous master suite with two new spa-like baths and an enclosed porch for relaxing, napping or simply watching for the sea life to swim by. I hope you will come back to see us in the near future. I so enjoyed having you hear. The lasagna was delicious! Thanks for your thoughtfulness. Enjoy the new year and stay safe. With appreciation, Linda
