My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was very clean and had all the amenities we needed for the perfect week! We were so thankful the owner provided a bunch of bumpers due to the heavy winds in order for our boat to be protected. The location of the cottage was perfect. We were able to ride our bikes all over islamorada which we love to do- close to our favorite restaurants, bars and boutiques.

I had a great time. This place is in the absolute perfect location. If you are looking to fish, look no further. I hooked a massive barracuda and many tarpon from the dock, as well as some grunts. I had a wonderful time and would love to come again

Our Piece of Paradise

Our third time staying here was as wonderful as the first two. So peaceful and comfortable. All the comforts of home, close to grocery, restaurants and pharmacy if needed. It’s just the best place to stay when escaping the northern states for a little warmth and sunshine in mid winter. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else in the Keys.This place is our favorite of favorites!

Upper Keys get away

Great property directly on the Atlantic side in Islamorada. We stayed in the ground floor unit, there is a ground and upper floor unit. The unit was spacious and comfortable. Wonderful dock to fish from, took the complimentary kayak out for a paddle. The grounds are plenty spacious for groups staying at both units. So many places to eat in a short drive, bait shop was 3 blocks down the street. Absolutely great stay, try it out!

WONDERFUL PROPERTY!!!

My husband & I stayed here for a week in Nov. 2023 and it was absolutely wonderful! We fell in love with the property & location. The house is absolutely as advertised - very clean and well-equipped and comfortable. The property is quite large and spacious, and as a result it is very relaxing and private. We enjoyed all of the amenities provided, such as the bicycles & kayaks. There is quite a bit of interesting wildlife (birds, tarpon, etc.) to watch while here. We also enjoyed walking to many places in Islamorada. It's nice being not directly on US-1 (quieter), yet close to so many options for dining, shopping, etc. We would love to return!

Hidden Gem

Great little place right on the ocean. Excellent place to come if you have a boat, with a boat ramp and a beautiful dock. We caught fish right off the dock! The place is just as described, very clean. The outside is spacious and plenty of room for your toys. The hosts were very gracious and communicated quickly. I can’t say one bad thing about it. We thoroughly enjoy our stay. The only thing that would have made it better is a pool.
