Great house on a beautiful canal!

We had a really comfortable stay and loved the location! The house had a lot more space than we were expecting, and the kitchen is really up to date. Five adults had plenty of sleeping space and elbow room. The patio area and dock on the canal was a beautiful place to watch the sun go down. We took the kayaks for spin out into the ocean from the canal and really enjoyed that. I was afraid there would be noise from the small airport across the street from the house, but that was really negligible. It was just a short drive to Sombrero Beach and all the restaurants and activities in Marathon and a little more than an hour to Key West. We thought the house was great, and we'd definitely stay again!

Fantastic stay for the week

We had a great time at this sweet little house on the canal in Marathon. The kitchen is well appointed, beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of linens (towels) for all of us. The decor was a bit different from the online listing - in a good way! The owners are redecorating and there are some nice updates! All in all, we loved this house and would absolutely stay here again!!

Better than described

This property was much larger feeling that the picture and description led us to think. We loved the location on the canal. There was plenty of fun watching the fish swimming by there. The property manager was very fast to respond to questions we asked. Great place, location and we loved it.

Great home away from home!

This property was more then we expected! We planned a family vacation for my husbands birthday and the home accommodated everyone perfectly. everything was very clean and well kept. We had an issue with the stove one night and as soon as I informed Marisela she got back to us and the stove was up and working within 20min. We'd love to stay here again!

Property was in a good location. It was clean and spacious. Good instructions on how to access the property. The bathrooms were small. Pictures showed a sun shade over the outdoor furniture but this was not in place for our stay. Since it was sunny and hot, it would have been helpful.

Winter in Marathon

Overall a great place. The yard desperately needs attention, most of the yard furniture was tattered and or had mold on it. Several lights had no or blown bulbs, no hot water in bathroom sink. Several hand and face towels in the basket were dirty!!

Great time with family

Overall the home is nice. I would note that the dock is shared with an efficiency on the property which the owner also rents separately and it is not on the listing. Be aware and make sure your boat will fit on the dock, if the other side is rented. One of the bedrooms is a converted garage which could be warm at times. The home does not come with beach towels. She does provide an abundance of bathroom towels but is you lose any, there is a sign that states $46/per towel. I would not take them off the property. Home is well located. Close to Publix, Walgreens etc. The only negative I would state is communicating with the owner. We had several minor issues and she was not easy to communicate with. Always on the defense when we were just trying to solve them so we could go about our vacation. The AC was not working properly. We contacted owner after waiting 2 days and instead of just sending the tech right away, she blamed us for leaving doors open and stated we were not being truthful about the temperature and that we would be reported to vrbo. In the end, she did send a tech who confirmed the AC was having an issue and filter was filthy. Once he fixed, AC was cool and we were able to enjoy the rest of our week.

Kitchen was well stocked with appliances and had ample room for our family. The check in process was very easy, as was checking out. Location was great. Right in between vaca cut and the 7 mile bridge. Easy access to both. I would stay here again

Amazing house on the canal

This rental was very nice and has a great location on the canal. You can tell they have put in a lot of work to upgrade the house. My only issue was the photos in the listing showed it had a bunkbed, it did not which caused a minor meltdown from our son. Instead, it had a pull out couch, which was fine but there was not any extra sheets or blankets that we could find. Other than that the place was beautiful!

Great location with some issues

There are some pros and important cons for this house. PROS - Great dockage with quick access to Vaca cut. - Public ramp three blocks away (trailers limited to 2-axle or smaller). - Dock has a really nice water and electric hookup. We don't use shore power, but it's a solid setup for anyone who does. - Perfect parking setup for a truck and trailer. - Chest freezer outside. - House wifi available. CONS - The common bathroom is insanely small. Like 13" from the edge of the toilet to the wall. Older people may have issues getting up off the toilet. - You get 1 roll of onion-skin toilet paper. Management believes this should last the whole week. Be prepared to buy your own on day 1. - During our stay a stand-alone icemaker was installed (the one in the fridge didn't work), taking up precious counter space and coiling a drain tube in the sink. That icemaker also didn't work. Overall we had a great trip and the house worked well.

Perfect for family get away

This house was super spacious and clean. Perfect location! Waking up and my kids being able to fish and us parents being able to enjoy a cup of coffee on the water was amazing. The property manager was super quick to respond and very nice. We would definitely stay here again. A few things just need fixing - like some shade in the backyard and the hammock was torn but all and all we would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Better than expected!

When we booked this house, we expected a nice house. When we got there it was so much better than we expected! The house itself is stunning but from the lanscaping front-to-back, to the amazing dock on the water in the back, the entire priperty is absolutely stunning. The house was super clean and decorated perfectly. Not too much, very classy, very welcoming. The beds were comfortable and all the linens were clean and seemed brand new. We loved that it had everything we needed already in the house. It was stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, silverware, plates and dishes, cleaning products, towels, soaps and shampoos. It even had a few fishing lures in the drawer for us to use on the dock. We literally lived on that dock by the way. We saw barracuda, needlefish, crabs, parot fish, sharks, everything right outside our back door. The grill was really nice to have also and we loved that the house already had bikes and kayaks for us to use. The only extremely minor problems we had was there was a dresser and couch that the leg was broken on and kind of just proped up to hold the furniture, which wasnt a big deal because it didnt affect the usability of the furniture. Then the ice machine in the freezer was broken. That one was kind of inconvenient. I contacted the host, who has been extremely responsive the entire time, and she told us they would handle it and apologized for the inconvenience. Overall our ecperience was a 9.5 out of 10 and we will book with them again!
