Annual Keys Trip
The home was better than the listing photos. We had a wonderful stay with good communication from the owner. The dock was one of the best features (docked a 30 ft boat with no problems) and beautiful sea life and interesting critters were all around. Fishing from the dock was great. We enjoyed the home being one story and it felt very relaxed. It is an older home but a little gem and the location on land and sea are fantastic! The dipper pool was refreshing in the heat! Don’t sweat the small stuff and have some fun!

Great location with lots of potential
We stay in Key Colony every year and were really excited about staying right on the Vaca cut this year. It was very nice and convenient for boating, however the house itself left a lot to be desired. Classic run down keys bunker house that needs A LOT of work. Cockroaches, ants and other friends hung out with us during our entire stay. The air conditioner is undersized and couldn't cool the house below 82 degrees during the day, so we were all uncomfortable. We spent the first day we were there cleaning. Our feet were black from all the dirt when we arrived. My wife went to the store to purchase cleaning supplies and got it to a point where it was manageable for our stay. Fun way to spend vacation, right? The propane tanks were empty so we had to take one to get filled before we could cook for our kids when they were really hungry. Internet is extremely slow and almost unusable The day we checked out we were accused of taking the kayaks by the owner. Which we didn't touch the entire time we were there, and after sending my friend by it was determined that the kayak rental company just came to pick them up. Odd. Hopefully this house gets a deep clean and the air conditioner replaced so people can enjoy the great location!

Disgusting - Filthy ***read before making your decision
Easy access between the Gulf and the Atlantic is the only plus. It is definitely older and needs a lot of TLC, updates and landscaping or a gardener. There is a lot of boat traffic and airplane traffic. House was disgustingly dirty upon arrival! We had to take time from our vacation to clean the house. It looked as if it was not cleaned before our arrival, the kitchen floor was filthy. We swept, vacuumed and mopped the floors, cleaned the bathrooms, washed bathroom rugs (very disgusting) & washed bedding. We weren't sure the bedding was clean due to the uncleanliness of the house. Take a look at the master bedroom - bed skirt; it will gross you out. The bathroom floors, walls & doors are very disgusting. Looks like feces on the door in the main bathroom. The front doors of the appliances were disgusting. Cannot see the temperature settings on the stove knobs. The cookware is unsafe to use with it being non-stick cookware that is scratched up exposing the chemicals of the non-stick covering. The couch in the dining room is old, stained and filthy, couldn't trust to sit on it without fear of some sort of bug bite. Oh, by the way, watch your step for cockroaches! The pool was so cold, we couldn't enjoy it. Why advertise a pool if it's not going to heated in the winter months? The bottom of BBQ is rusted out and by-the-way, the coconut rats love the inside of the BBQ. Watch your step on deck, nails & screws! Not a premier property! So much to say, not enough characters allowed.

Place needs a good cleaning and fixing up. Dirty and disgusting
Very old run down place. Pier is in need of overhaul. Wasn’t safe to even walk on. When the current ran the whole pier shakes. The inside of the house looked like it was never cleaned before we got there. Dishwasher doesn’t work and the refrigerator and microwave are disgusting How this place has a 4+ rating is a mystery.

Great location
2nd stay at this location. First was in 2021. Incredible location on the Vaca cut. We had a 26’ boat and the dock handled it in every tide cycle. No problem. Abundant sea life all times of day around the dock. Manatees daily, rays, sharks, tarpon, and lots of lobster at night. We were a party of 10 so, the house was a little tight at times. We spent most of our time outdoors so it wasn’t a big problem. Everything you’ll need is close by. Bait shop within walking distance just up the street. Gas, groceries, restaurants, ice all 10 minutes or less. Owner is extremely communicative and accommodating. Marathon is beautiful. Great stay!

Great little place. Looooved the dock. Spent most of my time with a line in the water. Kids loved swimming and playing in the splash pool and the ocean right off the dock. The location was perfect. Middle of there keys with lots to do in either direction.

Location was great. House was not very clean at all and beds were very uncomfortable. I think that a newspaper would make a better pillow. For the price it really was not worth it in my opinion. Pay a professional cleaning company or something.

Needs Updating
If you want low water pressure in the shower, book this house. House needs updating!!! View was very nice. Family arrived early. And we needed too step out for the house to be readied for us, housekeeping and pool service. The housekeeping was fine. The pool was not serviced and not cleaned. And when the owner responds with an excuse too this reciew, I will be glad too screen shot what I sent, with No Response from her. That was dissapointing. To summarize, the house was ok, if your looking for the "WoW", this is not your place. If your lookking for your grandmothers, this is it....good luck

Beautiful location.
Beautiful location and very good accommodations. Property was everything the listing said. Because of the property location on the cut, we were able to view an adundant amount of sea life both day and night. Sharks, tarpon, manatees and dozens of lobster. We caught and ate a variety of fish off the property’s dock all week long. As soon as we can nail down dates for everyone, we’re ready to book for next year. Many thanks to the property owners and Vrbo.

Vaca cut
It was an older unit, but everything worked. It was ground level . My brother-in-law is handicapped . We easily moved him about in the main rooms and porch area. I chose the location as I am an avid fisherman no longer able to boat. The house was situated perfectly with the dock just shy of the main channel. Excellent fishing and entertainment with all the boats coming in and out. Overall the unit fit our needs well. We caught several varieties of fish and saw many tarpon migrating to Boca. Had a blast.

We truly enjoyed our stay ! The property could use some exterior maintenance the sliding glass door that’s silver didn’t lock, parts of the deck are in need of replacing , we had to fill the pool each day w water (it lost approximately a foot of water a day), grill we never used it as it had no bottom catch tray left. Beds were very comfortable we had plenty of pillows and linens . There were only 1/2 roll of toilet paper in each bathroom so we had to purchase more . We would stay again just think a little TLC is required!
