We stayed for a week for fishing and diving. The house was perfect for our needs. We had ample space for our 32 center console including space for our trailer and 2-3 vehicles. The house is close to the end of the canal so boat traffic was minimal. Communication with Chris was great. We had an issue with the ac when we woke up we made contact at 6am and he had the Ac back up and running in just a few hours. We would stay again and recommend to others.

well maintain, clean and relaxing. we brought our boat with us, nice dock just be careful when low tide, depth is just around 1.5' at entrance to canal.

Fantastic stay. We come down to the keys once a year in June for a week every year and this was the perfect spot. Super clean and updated. Everything you need to cook anything in the kitchen. Great water access to the ocean or the bay right around the corner. We kayaks and paddle boards down to the end of the canal every night at sunset. Communication was fantastic. Very responsive. No negative comments whatsoever. Will definitely stay here again.

House was nice and clean, as usual. Some updated furniture and new paint was a nice surprise, the place looks great. Chris is helpful and communicates well. We will be back again next year!

I would say this place is just okay. Configuration is very strange with the lower bedroom not internally connected to the upper floor main living area...you access it from a separate entrance with separate key outside next to parking. Two of the bathrooms (which are not pictured in the listing) are horribly configured and very inconvenient. Couch and chair in main living area are incredibly dirty and disgusting...it's like 25 years of accumulated filth. Bedspreads were stained which is not acceptable. Upsides...the location is good and the communication with the owner was fine. Not sure we would stay here again, however.

This is a nice VRBO property in a good location if you’re bringing your boat. However parking the boat trailer was a bit of a challenge from the street but we figured it out. The house was clean and well supplied with the basic essentials. Chris was very responsive to all of our questions and any issues that presented.

House was mostly clean, but not even a hand soap was provided! All furnishings look like they came from a thrift store! Canal was nasty and cut to get out of canal to ocean was narrow, shallow and rocky! For the price not horrible but owner: hang some fans, update furniture, provide a hand soap in bathroom- hell our cleaning crew provides them every cleaning!!

We loved this house and location. It was more than comfortable for relaxing and quiet time, as well as, BBQing for a couple of our fishing pals that joined us two evenings for happy hour/dinner. The house was very clean and well stocked for our stay. I would like to hopefully address a previous comment about fleas...there are no fleas in the house! This is south FL and "noseeums...biting flies" are very common outside near mangroves/water/sand and yes there are noseeums outside and if mosquitos like you, noseeums will too! You must be prepared with deet repellent and put it on if you are outside early morning and later afternoon/dusk. I love to sit outside and read and the yard of this house was a great spot, but I was prepared and fogged the area I sat in AND applied repellent.
Great house to rent for 6 people! The separate bed/bath on lower level would be great for teens or a couple that want more privacy.

Great property,!
We were so happy to have discovered this wonderful property. The house was well-appointed and well-maintained. We spend a lot of time lazing in the comfortable Adirondack chairs overlooking the canal and were pleased that the kitchen was so well equipped that we were able to cook several meals "at home." Chris was so helpful in making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

Property needs some TLC, dated and worn. All appliances working properly and kitchen equipped for home cooking. House was bright & airy. AC, washer dryer worked well. Canal behind house was tight & had piles of debris during tides, could not swim or snorkel in the water. Sofa was full of dog hair and stained.

Perfect house on ocean side with channel
We stayed for 1 week and the house is perfect! Open floor plan, lots of windows for natural light, great view of the channel. Just outside the channel the water opens up and just beautiful. Manatee hung out with us daily in the channel and we just sat outside in the nice outside patio furniture. Chris was super informative and responsive. Will definitely stay again

We thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks! The house was just as advertised, very comfortable! Nothing fancy, perfect keys house! Close enough to our favorite Islamorada restaurants but just far enough away to be out of the traffic. We brought our boat and loved the easy access to channel 2 and 5 bridges! The kitchen had everything we needed too. Great stay!
