Great place to stay!

The property supported our needs to a “T”! We travel to the Keys annually and need a place that is on the water, has a dock, a pool, is clean, and has the necessary amenities. This place had all of that and had lots of wildlife in and out of the water. We will stay here again if available on our next visit to the Keys.

Great sunsets; quiet street; fantastic marine life. Frank was very responsive. The property is not brand new but delivered on what we needed: pool, great dock for fishing and keeping boat during day. Booked again for next year.

Little Piece of Heaven

Most an amazing place, with an amazing view. Frank was great to work with if had any questions or needs. We have been coming down to Marathon for 10 years and had one place we rented be sold, this was our first year at this location. So private, pool was amazing, kitchen had everything you need, all bedrooms had own bathroom, screen porch had unreal views. We will definitely be back next year and hopefully many years in the future. A little piece of heaven on earth.

Nice property that checked all the boxes for 3 couples. Each bedroom has its on bathroom and there’s plenty of space inside and out, We rented a boat during our stay so having the dock was a plus. The property is in a great location and the sunsets are spectacular!

Great location on the Gulf

The property was perfect for our family. Our grandkids enjoyed the boating & snorkeling in the area. The pool was perfect. It was fun to see the animal life from the dock. We saw lobsters, shrimp, yellow stingrays, trunk fish, needle nose fish, small reef shark and crabs. Take flashlights to see marine life from the dock at night!

Relaxing Retreat

Spent a week here with husband and our two college aged kids. House was great set up, 3 bedrooms all with their own bathroom all on same floor plus well stocked kitchen. Screen porch for morning coffee with the view and the awesome private pool were our favorite parts. Have stayed in other properties in the Keys the past several years and this was by far our favorite because it felt so private. Would for sure return.

Peaceful and relaxing!

Frank was prompt and easy to communicate with plus accommodated our needs during our stay. His unit's location and backyard with pool plus spa overlooking the gulf was beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful. Key West was an easy and beautiful drive for day trips. His unit is a bit older, but it met our needs. This was our first stay in Marathon, and we would love to return!

Very Relaxing

We had a very relaxing week at this house in April. The house and property were clean. The view out the back is really nice. Sunsets over the water are magnificent. We fished off the dock and caught barracuda, mangrove snapper, mainly (wire leader recommended). Owner was very responsive to questions. We would go back and definitely recommend this property. Quiet, private, and relaxing!

Unbelievable Sea Life

The property is clean but a little worn. The design of the house was great as each bedroom had its own full bathroom. The kitchen was well stocked . We enjoyed seeing multiple manatees, sharks, dolphins, stingrays and a multitude of different colored fish right from the dock. The location was great for biking, walking and stores. Frank was VERY quick to respond to any of our questions.

Needs work

The property needs serious maintenance and better amenities for the cost he charges, there are better options than this one. Biggest concerns were as follows, pool tiles falling off, screens on porch were all ripped and door was broken, linens were not all changed in the house. Will be finding a different place for next year.
