Anniversary trip
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was beautiful and the house and pool were exactly what we expected. There were only two downsides. The area around the dock was simply too shallow to fish. Fortunately, we found a number of other places close by so that we were able to get some fishing in, so this didn’t turn out to be a huge problem. The other downside were the “no see ums”. Unfortunately, I read about these in the information that the owner provided one day too late. These are some very nasty little flying bugs that seem to come out during dusk. At dinner that evening everybody in the restaurant was complaining about them so it had nothing to do with the house, but rather just being in the Keys. Certainly, this was not something that the owners of the house could manage, but if you’re renting a house in the Keys, you need to be aware because even the lanai over the pool didn’t protect us from these very tiny flying insects. Bug bites aside it was beautiful vacation and we will definitely return to the Keys. Location was very secluded. It’s right off the main highway, and therefore close to a lot of other things you might like to do.

Very nice house
Nice house, comfortable furniture and beds, beautiful pool area. My only comment is traffic noise was louder than expected. I forgot how busy Overseas Highway was! Don't let that deter you though, it was still wonderful.

Relaxing
We enjoyed wonderful weather and the pool was great to have so close that I could monitor the kids from a distance if needed. We enjoyed the amenities in the garage, everything is very well thought out for your stay. Thank you for a wonderful time for our first time in the Keys.

Wonderful time in paradies
We were lucky enough to spend 2 wonderful weeks in the Key Lime Kottage. It is very private, between mangroves and a great pool area in the backyard. As an angler, I was at first a bit disappointed by the very shallow water at the dock, but I quickly found out that the big fish come close to the shore at night. I could catch tarpons, nursesharks, barracudas and snapper from the dock. That was fantastic. Thank you for the great time in the klk.
