Classic house in the BEST KCB location--Immediate access to open ocean and bay.

Hollie, many thanks for staying with us as well as your kind review. How did you fare on the lobsters and dolphin ?

Pamela, many thanks for staying with us and for your kind review. You are the kind of guests that make weekly rentals possible from a distance. We appreciate your comments about the outdoor space including the pool , gazebo, and outdoor kitchen. We look forward to a return visit from you, thanks, Jim & Tudor

Emerson, thanks for being our guests . We are disappointed in your review which was positive but gave a low rating which makes little sense to us. It is always very helpful for guests to communicate prior to departure if they think any things need correcting , adding or changing. We are always receptive to any suggestions --- thanks Jim & Tudor

John, many thanks --- you were a fabulous guest ! Jim & Tudor

Cathy, first, thanks for choosing to stay with us, and secondly many thanks for your positive review, Jim & Tudor

Al, many thanks for being such good guests at our house and we look forward to welcoming you back again --- Jim & Tudor

Henrietta, thanks for spending three weeks at our house -- you were a wonderful guest ! Jim & Tudor

Alyssa, many thanks for choosing to stay at our house ! You were great guests and we are pleased that you had a great week. The manatees are very cooperative where we are located and I was also glad to hear that you had good fishing off the dock. Thanks for your kind review, Jim & Tudor

Annette, thanks for being our very first guests and also for leaving a nice review. We are glad that you enjoyed the house --- we also think that it is very special. As you know, you could not be any closer to both the open ocean as well as the bay . Thanks, Jim & Tudor

Jeffrey, thanks for being such great guests and for giving us such a nice review. We look forward to being your hosts again in the future, Jim & Tudor

Ray, many thanks for being wonderful guests at our house. Thanks for taking the time to submit your review. Generally speaking, any issues that come to our attention are found by an incoming guest and are commonly caused by outgoing guests who do not bring these problems to our attention. It is a regrettable part of the rental buisness. We correct any problems as soon as they are discovered --- as we did for this guest. It is frustrating however to be marked down for this reason . We are at our home in Maine during these rental periods {1750 miles away} , which makes the rental process challenging . Jim & Tudor

Beka, thanks for being such great guests --- we are glad that you had such a great week. We hope to see you back again, Jim & Tudor

Angela, many thanks for staying with us and for having such a great time at our house. Thanks also for your kind review, Jim & Tudor

Arturo, many thanks for your review. We love the location and immediate access to both the bay and the ocean . We hope to see you back again! Jim & Tudor

Michael, thanks for your nice review. We are sorry that the weather did not cooperate, but glad that you had a nice time regardless. We hope that you can find a date next year that can work for you, Jim & Tudor

William, thanks for being such great guests for your two week stay ! We are happy that you enjoyed the house and the area --- Jim & Tudor

Sue, many thanks for staying with us and for your kind review. We are sorry that we missed meeting you as we had just left for Maine. Hopefully we will get a chance to meet you in the future. If you are interested in looking at our Maine house, here is the link : https://www.vrbo.com/4087681ha. You would love it there and we would meet all of you ! Thanks again, Jim & Tudor

Janet, many thanks for staying with us and for your kind review. We are glad that you had good luck fishing and look forward to your return , Jim & Tudor

David, thanks for a great review ! I hope you were successful fishing off the dock as there are some pretty good fish caught from there at times. Sometimes there are quite a few tarpon , but usually in the spring. We hope that you decide to visit us again as you were wonderful guests to have , thanks, Jim & Tudor

Michael, thanks for staying with us and for your great review. We are very glad that everything worked so well for you, Jim & Tudor

Nancy, many thanks for your thoughtful and kind review. It was great hosting you for two weeks. We look forward to seeing you in Maine in the future -- you will be very happy with everything that the Red Cottage has to offer ! Thanks again, Jim & Tudor

Michael, thanks for your thoughtful review and for staying with us a second time . We looked for two years to find that house with the ocean only 100 yards from the dock --- and Vaca cut a straight shot and less than 1/4 mile away. After being in Marathon for over 20 years we knew what we were looking for . We are so pleased that you enjoyed it as well ! We look forward to your return , thanks, Jim , Tudor & Danielle

Michael , many thanks for your kind review ! Your group was wonderful to have , and we are so glad you found the little known tarpon spot ! Actually they are often right off the dock, but catching them there is another thing --- they usually just break off before you can coax them to the dock. My wife will be so pleased with your review as this house is her baby ! Thanks , Jim & Tudor
