It was very enjoyable. We definitely rate this place a 10. The facility is in a great location and the place was like new. We had everything we needed to make our week in the Keys a great week. The kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms were furnished in excellent fashion. The place was spotless when we arrived, and we could not have asked for any changes to the place. We will definitely come again next year and hope the house is available. The house made our vacation special and very enjoyable. ##### Frank Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William S. 21 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Great Location, Great Residence,... Great Location. Spotless home with a light beachy elegant motif mixed with the love of fishing and the ocean. A small man made jetty providing protection for the channel inlet had a beach hut with picnic table and cleaning startion for the fisherman in your group. The jetty, a very short walk from the property just one residence away, was a great place to hang out in-between excursions and you can catch fish casting from its rocks. Fun time, centrally located on the keys. A close drive to the state park on Layton Key if you're a flats fisherman who like to wade. Would go back. It is a 2 bedroom, not 3, but has a pull out sleeper in the living room thus allowing accommodations for 6. This could have mattered a little for us, however, another couple who was planning to join our group did not make it, thus it was not an issue. ##### William S.

The view is just amazing. The location is perfect to bring a boat and fish. The house was clean. There are some areas that need improvement. The towels are really old and faded; the kitchen appliances are also pretty old. The dishwasher does clean very well. The lounge chairs on decks are old and uncomfortable. The living room furniture are pretty uncomfortable. There was no ability to use streaming services, like Netflix. There’s only basic cable. ##### Elizabeth and Greg A.
