About this property

BOOT KEY RETREAT - OPEN WATER VIEWS - Just updated in 2019
Not your typical canal house, there is plenty of privacy here. You'll be in your own secluded, retreat. Your own private heated pool, 130 ft. concrete dock, a 400 lb. Ice Machine Plus a beautiful private HOT water outdoor shower,
Foosball Table, and views! You're not looking at the neighbors across the canal and they're not looking at you. Your view is of open water, nature's own show. There's always something going on. Fish swimming and splashing, exotic birds searching for food. You can pay more, and you can pay less, but we honestly believe, you won't find better VALUE for your vacation dollar.

You'll watch boats in the harbor and the countless dingies comings and goings. Bring your binoculars, you never know what to expect. You can relax, be yourself, feel at home here. A simple evening here will be a lifetime memory. It's a real 'Retreat' from your normal everyday life.
You'll have 2 kayaks and 4- bikes for your use at no additional cost. If your kids are old enough, these can be real fun entertainment for them, or you! Our dock, 130 ft., will accommodate a small flats boat or a 35 ft center console, or both.

Overall a very nice house and property

House and property were clean and pretty much as described. There were a few minor issues with things that were broken or not working when we arrived. The house had a lot of extras, like the ice maker, extra fridge and freezers which were great for fishing. The only thing that we missed were beach chairs. The canal is very narrow and made it a little tough to turn a boat around. By far the biggest complaint, which is completely out of the property owners hands, is the neighbor across the canal. He played loud music almost every day and some nights until 4am and it appeared that he lives there. Overall, it was a good location with plenty of good restaurants and sombrero beach close by.
