Fabulous Fishing Vacation

What a beautiful property! The house is gorgeous and stocked with everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped and labeled so it was easy to find and put things away. There were plenty of towels for the pool to go along with lots of pool toys. The boat dock was perfect for our 39’ boat and had lights, water, electricity, and the cleaning station. The house is ideally situated right behind Publix too! This is a beautiful and well maintained house that made our annual fishing vacation even better! We can’t wait to book for future trips!

Better than we anticipated!

This property is so beautiful and clean and awesome location! I had a question about the pool on a Saturday and someone from management was there within the hour. There was actually not an issue with the pool, I was being over cautious regarding the water level :) we are looking into bringing family down next year to join us because there are plenty of beds to accommodate more people. We saw dolphins almost every morning coming up the canal to feed, so fun!

Great Place to stay

Comfortable and roomy for our family of 10 consisting of 6 adults and 4 children. Everyone loved the pool and fishing off the dock. The one thing that I do not believe it states in the description is that there is a flight of stairs to climb to enter the home. I was surprised when we arrived to find stairs we had to climb with our luggage. We also would have enjoyed the property more if a kayak, paddle board and fishing poles were supplied.

Great House

My sister and I rented this house for our families to stay together while we were in the Keys for a week. Our primary purpose for the trip was to scatter our parents ashes but we did stay for a week and get some vacation time too. We picked Marathon because it was centrally located to what we wanted/needed to do. This house was the perfect size and location. Super conveniently located to everything you need. Communication was a breeze, the house is spotless (and looks brand news), and well stocked with the things you need. There is a pool and a private dock (we even saw a Manatee at the dock one day). Excellent experience and would stay here again.

Fabulous Family Vacation

This house is excellent for families who love the water! It has plenty of things to do for kids and adults alike. We rented a 25’ boat and easily navigated our way through the channels, off shore, and to restaurants. The house was very clean, well equipped with everything we needed, and the layout worked very well for our family. We highly recommend this house for a vacation in Marathon.

Perfect house for our Spring Break

This house suited us perfectly. 5 adults, 3 children (ages 4, 9, 11). Location was excellent on a canal and close to sombrero beach. Loved the bunk room for the kids. The upstairs patio was used every morning and evening. The pool was perfect size especially since my 4 year old is still learning to swim. We spent hours in the pool. Plenty of spots to sit and shade. Kayaked, paddle boarded and fished from the dock. I would recommend this house.

Cruise canceled. Plan B

Beautiful home. We really enjoyed the pool. Kitchen was well stocked with many utensils and dinnerware. Would have been nice if there were throws or light blankets, as it did get chilly. Conveniently located for groceries and Sombrero Beach. Directions did not specify address as A or B, which we found out after going to wrong home.
