Key Lime Kottage- Waterfront Home on Gulf of Mexico w/ Private Pool, Dock & More
Imagine paradise in a completely secluded location where there are no neighbors on either side of you. The backyard at Key Lime Kottage is the Gulf of Mexico! This is just the home for you! Beautifully appointed Keys home with a fully equipped kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Our pool and hot tub are completely enclosed inside of a 56' x 24' pool enclosure.
