Beautiful home on deep water canal with dockage. Located in a quiet neighborhood. It has a 60 foot cement dock with a fish cleaning table and outdoor shower head. Upon exiting the canal there is a great bay area for wake boarding, skiing, tubing etc. Snake creek and Tavernier creek are just minutes away and easy access to the ocean and some of the best fishing in the world.
Our home is perfectly located in the keys. Nearby is a shopping center and movie theater. Founders park is just minutes away where you can enjoy an olympic size pool, basketball, tennis, baseball, soccer, playground, dog-park, skateboarding ramps, and a beach. World famous John Pennekamp is the next key north in key largo (approximately ten miles). Key west would make an excellent day trip (89 miles south). Dive shops and boat rentals are just minutes away. Excellent dining as well as delicious local eateries surround us.
Take a short walk, or boat ride down the canal and experience the spectacular Florida keys sunsets, or just sit on the patio with your favorite drink and watch the colors melt across the sky.
Looking forward to serving you.

We are a close knit family eager to share our second home with people who want to experience for the first time or who are returning to enjoy the fabulous keys.
Maryln Kaufman purchased this House in 1998
Why Maryln Kaufman chose Tavernier
Our home and neighborhood is clean and quiet. Its perfect for fisherman due to its fabulous location for either back country or ocean fishing. Its perfect for divers due to its accessibility to some of the best diving in the world. Its perfect for the casual sightseer. The entire chain of Florida keys islands is available to you on a day trip.
What makes this House unique

Great place to stay
Great place on the waterway . Very tidy home , fun location to set out for a day on the water or to trek out for Florida keys adventures, would definitely stay there again or refer to friends/family
Lovely, fully-equipped home—wonderful view from the 2nd floor screened deck!
We absolutely loved our stay at this Islamorada home. Everything we needed was there and Maryln provided very helpful information about the area, including the best restaurants and where to rent a kayak for the week (which was delivered and dropped right into the canal in front of the home)! Our hosts were easy to reach with any question. We would highly recommend this home to anyone wanting to enjoy the Keys!
Very enjoyable stay!
Very well maintained older home. Would definitely stay here again!
Thank you for taking the time to write a review.
Very happy you enjoyed your stay
Best Wishes,
Maryln
Wonderful, peaceful canal home
We enjoyed so much staying in this house on the canal! The balcony patio is so peaceful and a great place to sit and read or watch the activity on the canal. We saw many manatee from the balcony and from the comfortable chairs on the dock. Maryln and Michael, the owners, were a pleasure to deal with and were very helpful. We do look forward to staying in this house again!
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Michael and I are very happy you had such a great time. Happy that the manatees came to visit too!!!! Look forward to your return. Best Wishes, Maryln
Great family vacation
Our family of six just returned from a beautiful week long vacation in the keys. We visited a few tourist places in the keys and the Everglades, but Maryln's house was the highlight of our trip. It is located right on the canal that leads to mangrove channels. We had so much fun kayaking and watching all kinds of fish swim in the water everyday. Manatees came to visit us in the backyard a few times. The house was clean and beautiful, with everything we needed. Maryln was very responsive and provided great tips on things to do in the area. Can't ask for more. Thank you, Maryln!
Thank you so much for the nice review. Yes, I seldom talk about the manatee's just incase they don't show up but they show up more than not. So happy they came to visit. And of course, kayaking in the area is exciting yet peaceful and beautiful. So happy you were able to experience some of my very favorite aspects of the Keys.
Our doors are open should you ever desire to return. Best Wishes, Maryln
Just as advertised. Very comfortable.
Enjoyed our recent fishing trip. Property was just what we had hoped for. Easy access.
Dear Kendall, So happy to hear it met your expectation for your fishing trip. Thank you for taking care of our home. Hope to see you again in the future. Best Wishes,
Maryln
