Fishing Fishing Fishing!!!This house is perfect for the fishermen. Pretty much different species in the canal. how cool! I thought I caught nearly 200 fish in 7 days. We even saw nurse shark, tarpon and Manatee,The house is very clean, and the kitchen is well equipped. Great location, walking distance to the bait shop. It is close to dining and shopping. We are sure will go back next year This house is highly recommended.

We are so very happy you guys have wonderful fun time, and glad you got to see all different kind of fish in the canal.

Thank you so much.

Great location right on a canal. Fishing was really good. The cottage had everything we could need. Overall, the place was pretty clean except for the pots and pans. They had a layer of old grease or oil which we had to clean before using.
Everything was as described. Right on the water with plenty of dock fishing and easy access to the water. Walking distance to Marathon Lady, Two Conchs and bait stores. Very friend local neighbors and comfortable stay next to the Cut.
We loved sitting on the deck and watching the boats, pelicans and manatees. The location is convenient for getting to other keys north and south. Be sure to try the pizza truck on the corner. Best pizza ever! The bed has a very soft, thick memory foam mattress. This unit has good AC but does not have heat which is rarely needed in the keys. We just happened to hit a cold snap. The kitchen was equipped with essentials. We would stay here again.

Hi Tina,
Thank you so much for your review, we really appreciated ,
About the heat, I want to be sure heat is okay, is both units setting on heat ?
Both units must be on same zone to made heat work.
Sorry if cost any inconvenience.

We had a great time, we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely plan to stay again. Communication with Lian was excellent, she was very responsive with questions and her home had everything we needed for our week’s stay.We caught lots of fish and enjoyed beautiful nights out on the deck.Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your wonderful home.
Perfect spot for couples with a boat. We rented an 18 foot boat for the week and had a blast fishing and exploring the reefs. The canal is a nice place to relax after a day on the water.

Good location with easy access to restaurants and quality fishing. . Quiet
Outstanding villa on a salt water canal— charming cottage decor, great view, private patio to BBQ on
Outstanding experience, GREAT location in Marathon , close to Sombrero Beach ( a 5 star , quiet wonder ), and Dolphin Experience, Research Center. Great grocery store and great restaurants nearby.
We booked this one because of the location near Vaca Cut and the dockage out back…….and we’re NOT disappointed.
We made full use of the dock, grill & patio areas for a really relaxing vacation.
I will definitely try to stay here again next time we visit.

Thank you so much, we welcome you come back real soon.
This property was perfect for what we wanted for our vacation!! The Two Conches marina is right around the corner, accommodates for fuel, accessible by boat, and carried everything needed for our stay! There was an ice machine a block away that provides bulk ice which is always a plus! No boat needed to fully enjoy ALL the keys has to offer right here from the private sea wall!!! The owner is very nice, very friendly and accommodating! Will definitely plan to stay here again in the future!

We had such an amazing time! This was the perfect place for our vacation. The cottage was very clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed. It was great being able to fish just outside your door! This place is convenient to everything. We definitely will be back!
This was a great place for my virtual conference. Wifi was great and I could stream my conference in the warm sun. We even spotted manatees in the canal, that was a life long goal for me!

So nice to know you love our place, you got to see a manatee also, wow ! nice.
Thank you so very much for your stay.
Visited with a buddy for a week of fishing. The house is in a great spot with easy access to everything. Restaurants close by and a bait shop right up the street. Fishing in the back canal was a lot of fun as well. Caught snappers grunts and a small hogfish. We will be back for sure
