PLEASE Read RECENT reviews. We saw 9. HUGE mistake. It’s a zero other than the view.
Renter be ware. This house is gravely misrepresented.  It is NOT safe to stay here. The property manager (Jennifer) and the owner (Susan) don’t care about fixing the problems at this house.  It has wet rotting wood floors (we have photos and videos that we shared with both Jennifer, Susan and VRBO). There is also a mold problem. Jennifer will tell you that it was simply that the AC line was clogged during our trip, but that is not the truth. They are just covering it up and continuing to rent this property so they don’t have to fix the problems. IT SMELLS AWEFUL. It’s not just a musty smell — it smells so badly that we couldn’t sleep there.  It’s a lazy rental - they place is on the water so you get sucked into that — and I will give the property that it has a nice view, however beyond the awful smell, the house isn’t clean, dogs at a shelter have better towels than the ones they provided, if you have 4 people, only two of you could enjoy a glass of wine. It’s a joke. They offered us another place to sleep (in a motor home on the canal) - not even close to what we rented. Our vacation was short, and we made the mistake of not going somewhere else right away. Never again. They wouldn’t refund us a DIME for this horrible vacation. I rarely leave reviews and most of the time I won’t leave one unless I can give it 5 stars, but this was so awful, I had to share my experience to let anyone know that this is a joke of a rental and you will be sorry you stayed here, unless you can’t

Disappointing stay...
First, the positives…location and view. My husband and I and another couple chose this waterfront rental property expecting a relaxing getaway. Unfortunately, our experience was far from satisfactory due to the state of the property and the lack of basic amenities. Firstly, the cleanliness and smell of the inside of the property was a major issue. It was extremely dirty with dust, grime, and bugs throughout the house. This was extremely disappointing and not what one would expect from a vacation rental. We spent the first couple of hours of our vacation cleaning all surfaces so we would feel comfortable touching them and storing our items on them. If you prefer to be barefoot, be warned: the floors are extremely dirty and the bottom of your feet will be black. Cleanliness is certainly subjective, but how there are recent reviews for this property stating that it was clean is beyond me. There was not one single clean area in this home. Sure, there were areas that were not as disgusting as others, but nothing was clean. In addition to the cleanliness issues, the property lacked several basic amenities. There were very few bathroom and kitchen towels provided making it inconvenient for a longer stay. The towels that were provided were very old with bleach spots and holes. There was also a noticeable lack of hangers and clothing storage options, forcing us to live out of our suitcases which was far from ideal.

Location was great along with the views. Friendly residents and guests throughout the complex. House needs some maintenance and cleaning air vents, decor, and furniture extremely dusty. Smelled musty and mildew when you walked in. A/C stopped working the 2nd night in but was fixed the next day.

Cudjoe Key Cottage
The view was wonderful. Great place to see sunrise every morning. This was a girls trip. If you are just there for fishing, this place is perfect. The refrigerator and freezer smelled of fish. Even after 3 nights, the smell was strong. I recommend bringing some arm and hammer baking soda for both fridge and freezer. The place is pretty close to Key West, so location is great. The neighbors were cleaning their fish right off the dock, so there were many seagulls. With seagulls, comes poop. They pooped on the very nice Adirondack chairs on our deck. No bucket found to do any cleaning, so bring something to clean off the chairs so you can enjoy the wonderful view. Check the outside trash can and recycling bin when you arrive. There are strict rules about not leaving any trash behind. Trash must be transported in your vehicle to a dumpster on the property. All in all, I would stay here again. Jennifer my host was wonderful. The view was awesome and a short trip to Key West.

Ocean View Deck Rental
The view and deck were beautiful. However, the unit was very dirty. The air vents were covered with dust and mold. A few bugs were crawling around, and they looked like small roaches. The shower doors were not very clean. The towels are very old, good thing I brought my own washcloths. The unit needs upgrades. Bikes would have been nice ride within the park. Very dissatisfied with the overall unit and rent again.

Location and amenities
Wonderful location and community. Enjoyed the ping pong, tennis & pickleball! Bikes & kayaks would have been great. The house was comfortable and cute. Had to call host for a repair and was taken care of within an hour. Cleanliness could have been better - dusty and cabinets/drawers could use attention. Very happy with our stay.

We staid here in August of 2023 It was not the cleanest, the comforters and pillow shams on the beds were soaking wet like the just came out of the washing machine and not dried, there were broken windows, broken cabinets disgusting bathrooms, ragged towels in bathrooms, and most of the outdoor furniture was broken the sliding door needs replacing. The entire place needs upgrading this place was not worth the money we paid, the host was hard to get in contact with and when we told her we had to dry all the bedding she just said OK like we were asking if we could. Find a better place in Venture Out not this one for your vacation.

We Really enjoyed our stay at this property! The house was clean and had nice amenities, including Smart TV, Cable, & WiFi! It was nice to have a grill! I cooked a great meal for Sis & Bro-in-law who stopped by for a visit! Beautiful evening to dine on the covered patio overlooking the water! The community had lots of things to do, although we mostly just relaxed and enjoyed the house & views! We will definately go back!

On the water
We enjoyed being literally on the water in this little Venture Out community. We explored the lower keys over the week, including a kayak tour, backcountry boat tour, several restaurants and heading to key west a few days. The property is a bit worn but you are in paradise so it’s all good! We did hang at the pool several days and enjoyed the deck and the area below the house.

Hidden Gem
We absolutely loved our stay at Venture Out. It is a hidden gem in the lower Keys driving distance to both Key West and Marathon. The house is waterfront and there’s a beautiful place to sip your coffee and watch the birds and the boaters go by. The house is adequate, a little worn but more than functional. We are an easy going family and don’t require luxury. We enjoyed sitting in the deck and the safe family atmosphere. We would definately stay here again.

Great location
Great location on the water! Dock is perfect for fishing, easy access for paddle boarding or kayaking (but boards and kayaks not provided). Neighborhood pool is nice but closed early at dusk due to a lighting issue. Easy travel to Key West. The online photos are a little outdated and the property was a little worn as described in other reviews, but it was comfortable and we had everything we needed. The dining and living area was roomy with a nice sized round table perfect for family game night. The appliances seemed newer, refrigerator had a good ice maker and air conditioner worked great. Kitchen cabinets are old and one didn’t close properly, shower doors were hazy and off the track, and mattresses a little worn. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean but we were a little disappointed with housekeeping since the floors were swept but they were still dirty and the large air exchange vent in the hallway was filthy (especially disappointed since there was a separate housekeeping fee). We still enjoyed the week at this house.

Million Dollar Views
The views and the outdoor deck and seawall outweighed any of the small negatives of our stay. The house was clean and comfortable with only a few minor issues such as older cabinet and shower doors, small bugs by the slider that we sprayed for, and my husband wished the a/c couId go colder at night (but it was perfect for me). The kitchen had everything we needed and the grill was great to cook the fresh fish we caught in the back. Beds were comfortable and their was plenty of room for our family of 4. The lot seemed like one of the best at venture out with plenty of space outdoors and a breathtaking, unobstructed view. The location was great since it was a short drive to Key West. I'll definitely miss looking at the ocean from the kitchen table and deck, would stay here again.
