This was our second stay at Craig's property and absolutely can not wait for our next visit! We take yearly family vacations with our boys and both sets of grandparents. We could not ask for a more fun, family friendly, comfortable, safe environment for everyone! Our 4yr old is autistic so safety and peace of mind is #1 priority. This house is top notch in regards to safety! All doors have multiple locks and alarms, the pool gate has a latch he can't reach and there are no stairs he can throw himself off of (except the 4 or so going to the dock) and the grandparents also appreciated very much not having to climb stairs! The pool is amazing.. the beach like entry was much safer for the littles and the grandparents! The hot tub was fantastic, and everyone loved hanging out in the pool grotto and huge tiki hut out of the sun! The dock on the canal is not far off the back porch and we caught many fish, and spotted so many more! We even got visited by a 4-5ft nurse shark who swam directly beneath our faces while we were watching the giant lobsters poke out under the dock! What an experience! The house is great, the main bedroom is huge, and even with a king bed it was big enough to add our son's twin size safety bed! The main area is comfy, open, and allowed everyone to interact no matter who was doing what.Craig is also top notch! Both times we stayed he was next door working on his other 2 houses.. he's a great human, and prioritizes his guests needs 100%! 10/10 Recommend!

Absolute dream vacation home. Not too fancy, very comfortable, spacious, clean and well equipped. Property is quite large with wonderful pool and spa. So many outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy the wonderful weather of the Florida Keys. Boat dock is easy to maneuver in and out from. Fresh water to rinse off boat and equipment. Plenty of bathrooms and showers for entire group we traveled with. Beds were comfortable. Clean and inviting. Hope to be back.

The property is amazing. The owner thought of all aspects to make the overall experience wonderful. Each bedroom has its own climate control. The ice machine outside made it a breeze loading coolers and just basically filling drinks for seven people. The exterior of the house is beautiful and well maintained. My family spent most evenings in the heated pool. The dock area is set up for both boats and just getting in the kayak for a nice relaxed afternoon. The owners were very helpful and informative. My family and friends loved everything about the property. We WILL be staying here again.

Beautiful property! Conveniently located in Marathon Key. The backyard/pool area was amazing! The mature trees around the property allowed for privacy and a relaxing, retreat from the world kind of feeling! We loved it so much, we rarely left the house!

Three couples was the perfect combination for a stress free, relaxing week. The pool is hands down the absolute best thing about this property!! One hour from Key West, 30 minutes from Islamorada, what more could you ask for? The Turtle Hospital and aquarium were also very hands on and informative, even for adults. Would 100% stay here again.

This beautiful waterfront home was the perfect place for myself and my family of 7 to stay. It is fully stocked with towels, cooking utensils, plates Etc. The pool was out of this world! My family swam in it every day and evening. The canal out back was full of wild life and fishing was amazing. The host was very attentive and supportive. You are just minutes from anything you need. Also for someone with bad knees suck as myself, no stairs was very helpful. We will be back ASAP!!
