Conflicted.
If I say how truly GREAT this property is, I'm afraid it won't be available for us next year for our yearly fishing adventure!!! This property is by far the best that we have stayed, and we will be back every year. Thank you John.

Great place to stay-We'll be back!
We spent 8 days at this cute location. For the most part it was perfect. My only complaint is the traffic noise from the Overseas highway (just a block away) and the neighborhood "noise" (garbage and delivery trucks very early in the AM, and dogs barking all night). John answered our questions quickly and the place is very clean! The bonus kayak, paddle boards, and fish poles were a plus! We had three large manatees visit several times, which was really cool! There was a wonderful grill outside along with great patio furniture and a screened porch. The place was well stocked with everything you need. If you're really hoping to see manatees while visiting it's a sure bet you'll find them at Castaway Bar and Grill. Their air conditioning unit drips fresh water and there's always manatees hanging around to drink it! Our highlights were BahiaHonda State Park, Keys Fisheries (great food and drinks) and Horseshoe Beach for snorkeling. Enjoy and THANKS JOHN!

Great Marathon Vacation Home
We stayed a month at this home. It has everything one needs for a great vacation including a dock, kayak, fishing gear, a fish cleaning station and 2 paddle boards. The kitchen if fully equipped and includes virtually everything you’d have in your own home I.e. hand mixers, Bullet for smoothies, food processors, and all sorts of kitchen utensils. The dish washer, stove and microwave are in excellent condition. In summary, this is the best equipped vacation home I’ve ever stayed at

Family vacation
We rented the property for a week for family vacation. I enjoyed sunrises and coffee outside while listening to the fish in the canal. We enjoyed evenings in the screened in porch. Friendly neighbors; after 10pm town is very quiet. Our dog really enjoyed sitting outside in the evenings and mornings.

Marathon Vacation
Home was just as described. Location was excellent. Loved that it was at the end of canal and you could sit on the end of dock looking down canal. Neighbors were freindly. Overall a wonderful stay!

Reef Retreat
Great location for our trip. Nice sea wall for docking the boat. Good afternoon shade in the backyard for cleaning up after being out on the boat all day. Easy access to ocean side or gulf. Close to all the great restaurants of Marathon. Nice canal view from dock for evening drinks. Convenient boat ramp just a couple blocks away. Owner answered all questions in a timely manner. Would stay here again.
