Beautiful view….love the dock.
Fishing on the dock….Gorgeous view….great fishing…catch Mahi 😀 Great boat trailer parking 20’ boat. You can put your boat in right there in the water or Jet ski. Step out your door, jump on the boat. Boat dock just a few miles away. Wasn't to busy on Labor Day 2024. There is a lovely pool there and a community washer and dryer. Nice tiki bar and restaurant maybe a mile away. The cottage is dated but clean. Wi-Fi is great and a/c works great. We will definitely be back.

Cudjoe Stay
The property location was great for us. It was so nice to wake up and see the water just outside your door and lots of iguanas roaming around. We enjoyed the pool and everyone staying in the other units were nice and friendly. The bungalow was cute and clean but the unit itself was in need of quite a few repairs. It was said to include a boat slip but upon checking in we found out that the slips were first come first serve and there were only 5-6 slips for nearly 8-12 units. That was a little frustrating as we had to “create” our own dockage back up in a mangrove…. But we made it work. That could’ve been a big issue had there been more tenants with boats on the days we were there so that’s the biggest thing I’d check out the next time.

Outside seating
A majority of the outside seating was broken. There were quite a few repairs that could be made to the inside and outside of the house, that would be somewhat easy. ,,that could make a huge difference. They are the same from 2 years ago. Perhaps the owner should take a visit. Otherwise great location and even though small great for what we require.

Cudjoe Cottage
We enjoyed our 1st stay on Cudjoe. We have previously stayed in Key West, Islamorada and Tavernier. We were very comfortable in the old style Florida cottage. WiFi, AC, screened porch and waterfront location were major contributors to our enjoyment. Easy access to Key West and Big Pine were major bonuses. A missing shower tile and a bare electrical box (porch - ceiling) were the only minor issues of note.

Key West Get Away :-(
We realize that in the Keys everything is location... location... location. And with this property that is the primary value. It's location gives you access to Key West but away from the hustle and bustle. It is also located right next to a small inlet. The property is small but a good size for a couple. While we enjoyed our stay in the Keys this property is in need of some serious TLC. These are just a few items we found during out stay. - We cooked most of our meals at the property. The pots, pans, dishes, etc... were of random variety. While that is typically no big deal it would have been nice if the lids actually fit the pans/pots. - Missing kitchen cabinet drawers - Step up going into the kitchen had broken tile along the edge which had duct tape across it. - Tile was missing at the entrance of the shower. - Listing says "gas grill" available. Gas grill was on location but no propane tank and previous guest had used charcoal in it making it unusable. - Listing says kayaks are available. No kayaks were on property. - All the chairs on the "dock" of the inlet were broken. - Blinds in the bedroom had several slats broken/missing. Used a extra blanket to hang over the window. - No door on from bedroom to main room. No big deal if you go to bed together or get up at the same time. - Missing ceiling fan on the porch with open wiring. Other fan has seen better days. There is more but I have used up all the characters... Location... Location... Location...

Lovely place and good location
We enjoyed our 5 night stay. The accommodation was good and it was okay driving distance to Key West and state parks, and short drive to several good restaurants. There is also a nice walking path on the other side of the Overseas Highway. It was nice to be near the water in Cabin 1.

Older property. Could use some cosmetic updates. It was clean and just steps away from the water! Pool was nice and clean. There was a major accident on US1 so we couldnt get to Key West our last day. We plan to stay there again.

It was average overall, good location. Should advise clients, boats should be less than 22', driveways could use some gravel. Cottage 1 needs some basic improvements.

Ideal stay for 2 with boat/jetski
The cottage itself was very clean when we walked in, smelled like a hotel room. It had all the essential things: a place to cook, a place to shower, a place to sleep and relax. Yes the cottage could use some renovation, but it was comfortable and functional. We were pleased to find a jetski dock, which allowed us to keep the jetski in the dock all week instead of taking it out every day. There is a hose that reaches it for washing. The main thing that bothered us was the smell of the water in the dock at low tide, which was pretty bad. Other than that, we had a wonderful week here and we would most likely come back.

Highly Recommend
This waterfront cottage was perfect for us. It's clean and comfortable. The central location in the Keys made it perfect for exploring Key West, Key Largo, and all the great things in between. Our pets loved the floor to ceiling screened porch and so did we. The owner is extremely responsive and very engaged if you need her. Rent this place!

Boat lovers, great location
We thoroughly enjoyed the property. It had parking for the boat, ramp access, two pools and the view from Cottage 1 was amazing. Property Management communication was great when we had a question about the nearby attractions. Highly recommend this quaint property.
