Exactly what we expected, everything was clean and the communication with the host was great. The place stayed cool. It's a quiet and safe area! The location is convenient if you want to travel down to Key West or north! It's next to the water, amazing location!

Pet friendly But...There were important everyday items missing for normal living. The floors were filthy and there wasn't a mop available. There wasn't a toilet brush or dish cloths. The bed was ok for 1 or 2 nights but certainly not for an entire month. I think if a better cleaning company came in along with a maintenance company to complete the painting it would be more appealing. The outdoor furniture was broken and there wasn't a table to sit at for outside dining. We loved the area for our stay. It was a comfortable and quiet Key.A few updates to the cottage and It would be an oasis to enjoy every year.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 April 2026
Thank you so much for staying with us! We are so very responsive to any guests needs or requests and would have provided anything you needed. There is a table there, that is shared between the cottages, that someone moved it to the water side. Thank you for your suggestions, we will address these as well.

The place had a few things going for it. It was clean and didn’t smell of mold, which is remarkable considering the obvious water damage that it sustained. It also had a new grill. That’s about it. The mattress was the worst I’ve seen in years. Funky fu For me it is in need of a renovation, and I’m on the less picky side.

The house seemed clean. I had to wash the dishes, pans and utensils before I could use them. The house and bedding were clean. The host did respond each time I messaged her. I don’t believe I would rent this place again, it wasn’t what I thought it would be.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Rich

Host profile image
I have lived in the Florida Keys for over 40 years, as I say, "I live and love the Florida Keys!" I love the water and everything about it. If you have never been here, you will fall in love, if you have been here, you know what I'm talking about...

Why they chose this property

My personal home is on the open water on Little Torch, this location is a straight shot to Looe Key Reef, for some of the best snorkeling, diving and fishing. And if you're just out for a boat ride and a relaxing day with friend, you are close to Marvin Key and the Content Keys.

What makes this property unique

Casual, unique, relaxing, open water sunrise views.
