About this property

Happy Place Key Largo - Waterfront Vintage Coastal Cottage

The best of the Florida Keys awaits at Happy Place Key Largo. Enjoy world class fishing and diving or just soak in the laid-back lifestyle on the hammock in our cozy canal front cottage with open water views and amazing sunsets year-round. Located less than 1 hour from Miami International Airport and a fun day trip away from the Everglades, Key West and everything in between, this two-story home is perfect for small groups or entertaining visitors seeking warm weather. We are located just three miles from John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, on the Bayside at Mile Marker 105. See list of local attractions below.

Happy Place comfortably sleeps 8 guests with 4 bedrooms, 2 full sized bathrooms and a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to make this your home away from home. The open concept living area includes two comfy sofas and a large dining table/kitchen island that's perfect for entertaining. There are 2 spacious balconies offering open water views and ocean breezes - the balcony right outside the kitchen has a picnic table with a Weber grill ready to BBQ your freshly caught fish.

The lower level of the house is all about enjoying the outdoors. The mangroves directly across the street attract flocks of chirping Egrets and Spoonbills while the roosters crow in the morning. From the canal you can see manatees, catch some snapper or see sunbathing iguanas while you mingle with the neighbors. Take a relaxing dip in the canal or enjoy a sunset paddle on the kayaks. There are four bright Adirondack chairs and a cool boat bench surrounding a fire pit to keep you lounging into the night. In addition, there is a large covered patio with a dining set and a ceiling fan for alfresco dining. We also have a ping pong table and a corn hole game for more outdoor fun. Explore the Keys with kayaks and stand-up paddle boards included with the rental. Bring your bikes or rent one nearby, there are miles of paved trails that are perfect for exploring or bike riding to one of the many nearby restaurants and shops. The house is also within walking distance to a grocery store and a convenience store for all your needs. The front of the house offers ample parking. Bring your boat down or rent one here - but please let us know your plans so that we can make necessary accommodations.

We have been enjoying the Florida Keys for over 40 years and are happy to make recommendations to make your stay the best ever. We love spending time in our Happy Place with our family and friends and hope you do too. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the property or planning your trip. We are the owners of the property and your hosts while you are here. Follow us on Facebook for updates and local happenings at Happy Place Key Largo.

About the host

Hosted by Cathy Clark-Reyes

Host profile image
Miguel and Cathy live in Miami, both grew up enjoying water sports and have been enjoying the Florida Keys for over 30 years. We enjoy traveling, being on the water and spending quality time with our family and friends. Where better than in the Florida Keys.

Why they chose this property

Growing up by the water, it was only natural for us to want to purchase a second home in the Florida Keys. We loved that this property was close to Miami to allow us easier access to fun. Being on the calmer Bay side of the Keys has allowed us better paddling and amazing sunsets. The home has been a cozy place for our family to enjoy the laid back Keys lifestyle, have friends over, and enjoy our neighbors.

What makes this property unique

We take pride in our Happy Place and enjoy managing our vacation rental. We are active hosts who are always a phone call away for any questions or area suggestions. The house is very well maintained and we have put a lot of effort into making it a home away from home.
