What we were looking for
We were looking for a spot that had easy access to the water and slightly remote. This place was perfect. Not a lot going on right around the house, but we could get out and do things with a short drive.

A Piece Of Paradise
What a wonderful spot. The private dock, screened-in porch and open floor plan are just a few of our favorites. The host is lovely and the king bed is very comfortable. I loved all of the sea life to explore and the quiet sunsets. We will definitely be back! Loved every minute of our stay.

Secluded getaway in the Florida Keys
If you want a secluded getaway in the Florida Keys, this home is perfect. With only one neighbor next door, this is also a quiet place removed from the built-up areas. The screened porch was a great place to hang out to enjoy the vast water view. The long pier and dock was a good place to fish and swim. We not only caught fish, but also saw other marine life including stingrays, sharks & lobsters. The home was ideal for two couples with the 2 separated bedrooms and 2 baths. The kitchen was fine for the cooking we did and we also used the gas grill, which worked well. There was a Win Dixie on nearby Big Pine Key where we shopped for groceries. One day we went to Key West which was only a 45 minute drive. We all enjoyed our week here and would love to return someday.

Our favorite house in the Keys!
Our family of 5 had an amazing time during our almost two week stay! The location of this house is just unbelievable.....set back in a private and quiet area surrounded by trees and water. Key deer, raccoons, and birds were in the front yard every morning and evening and the daily sealife out back around the dock made every day exciting. We had different kinds of sharks, stingrays, sea turtles, dolphins, and so many kinds of fish come by most days. My teenage boys love to fish and spent a lot of time fishing. The fishing was incredible! We swam and snorkeled right off the dock and shore. We had kayaks and paddleboards delivered and the area is great for those activities. The house is very nice and was clean upon our arrival. The beds and living room furniture were very comfortable. There are plenty of dishes, cups, pans, utensils, etc. We used the outdoor grill and it worked fine. The house has some board games and many books. A couple beach towels were provided. The only thing I can think of suggesting is to provide some additional wash cloths in each bathroom just because they get musty smelling so quickly in the humidity. We have been coming to the lower Keys since my boys were 4 and have stayed in 7 other houses. This house took the top spot as our new favorite house. We definitely plan on staying here again!

Overall an excellent choice for a quiet stay
If you love silence and wildlife, this is the place for you. We saw dolphins, stingray, and turtles off the dock. We had deer every night, and even a raccoon. It is absolutely quiet. Check out Catherines Boat rental as they will deliver a boat right to the dock. The downside on this place is truly terrible water pressure. Very difficult to rinse out long hair. Also, something seems to be wrong with the shower in the master in terms of the knob--you're either scalding or freezing. The front door lock didn't work consistently either. Towels were old, and stained with bleach. Kitchen utensils were very old and worn--teflon pans that were flaking. There were no extras such as spices, oils, or anything shelf stable that would be typical in a VRBO of this caliber. No toaster, Instapot, or crockpot. No extra blankets anywhere. It's kind of like walking into a 1980's time warp. Also, no beach chairs are provided, and just a couple beach towels. In spite of the drawbacks, it's a beautiful setting, very quiet, and rich with wildlife if those are your priorities. Please know this is a 10 min drive to ANY services. That may be too remote for some people.
