This house was the perfect size for the two of us. The back yard & pool area was much bigger than expected. The house had everything you need including sunscreen, pool floaties & snack basket of goodies. I cannot express enough how nice the host is! Will definitely stay here again!!

Second time staying here. It's small but a great place to stay. Clean and quiet with a pool and dock to rent a boat for your stay. My only suggestion for the owners would be to maybe update the bed and maybe update the bedding to be a little more comfortable. We will definitely stay again.

Great Little Cottage

This is the perfect place for a couple to spend a week in the Keys. Private pool, neat backyard, and dockage for boat. Only downside was the home construction across street with hammers banging at 7 am, but that is out of owners control and should be finished in next few months. Overall great experience and would stay here again.
