Great house and location
Great week in Marathon! This house was clean and comfortable. Breakfast on the patio overlooking the pool and canal was relaxing. Location was great close to everything. Spent some time in the large pool. Huge bonus being able to park boat right behind the house and plenty of space for trailer. The host was very communitive and friendly! Would love to return!

Best place ever!
This house was very clean, well decorated, great furnishings (brand new bed!), conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood, yet close to stores. The pool was warm, the canal was fun, and we enjoyed kayaking I can’t think of a single thing that could have improved our stay!! Incredible find!!

Everything and more
I and a group of buddies go to the Keys every year. This place had everything we needed and more. Not to mention a great boat dock, the ease of running back and forth to the home made the stay much better. I will be coming back.

Great Marathon Home!
The house has quick, easy access to the Gulf! We had plenty of dockage for our 22’ boat!. The house itself is well stocked, very clean and has a great layout. The pool is big enough for the entire family to enjoy and the owners were awesome. We really enjoyed our stay!
