リラックスして南部のキーを楽しむのに最適な場所

We completed build in 2012 of this wonderful vacation home in Sugarloaf Key. As avid paddlers, we sought a home that allowed us to have low impact interactions with nature.

As mentioned throughout this advertisement we are avid paddlers. Several members of the family crewed in college and were/are competitive NCAA athletes. Whether its paddling an outrigger or simply taking a SUP for a yoga break in the backyard we enjoy being connected to nature.

We also enjoy fishing and fly fishing, and so we selected our toys and location based on our hobbies.

This location has excellent access to back country fishing and ocean game. Access to back country fishing is excellent. Access to the ocean is good. Notable reefs nearby. Kayaking is over-the-top!

Sugarloaf, Cudjoe Bay and Blue Heron National Park are just minutes away. We enjoy taking out the Hobie Cat 16 on the bay which is 100 yards from the house. There are mangroves right by the house and excellent opportunities to snap photos of the wildlife.

Since paddling is our thing, we invested significantly in sharing that experience with our renters. Hence, we offer the following with our monthly rentals.
Two, West Marine fishing kayaks (details from manufacturer below).
Two, standup paddleboards (SUP). The BIC board was noted in Outdoor Magazine's paddling article. (see details from manufacturer below)
Two, Sport/recreational kayaks. One is a Hobie Kayak.




Paddling notes:
We take paddling serious so always check back because we constantly update our equipment. Even the paddles are above average since human propulsion is your power source.





West Marine excerpt:
If you feel the need for speed AND want to fish...this is your kayak

Low, sleek and stylish, our Pompano 120 Sit-On-Top Angler Kayak has the tracking and speed necessary to cover longer distances quickly and effortlessly. Although designed for day-tripping on flatwater lakes and rivers, even moderate chop and wind are no problem. Where you'll really notice the difference this kayak makes is when you start gearing up for fishing. With a load capacity of 350 pounds (including you) and lots of places to put all the essential gear you'll want to bring along.
