Wonderful Keys Vacation
We had a wonderful time staying at Lynn's place. It was a great location, was very comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed. We especially enjoyed the sunrises on the porch. Lynn was very responsive when we had questions. Thank you so much for hosting us!

Perfect location
This place was perfect for a couple’s getaway! Close enough to Key West to drive over and far enough away from hustle and bustle. Great restaurants nearby. Bed was very comfortable! Our only complaint was that we often ran out of hot water when showering…not a dealbreaker though.

Safe and on a channel!
The pictures are very accurate. What isn't shown is a very well kept residential resort with significant security 24/7. I was traveling alone and this additional security really made me feel very safe. The same guards worked when I was there. This is a smaller, older mobile home style place but has everything you need. You can't beat the location. I didn't take part of any of the resort activities but there were bikes, a nice patio and nothing beats the view. If you need a close place near Key West that is affordable ... look no further!!

Everything was pretty good and we'll rent again when we come back. A couple things to improve:
The shower head is corroded and hard to move and the pipe is not secured in the wall. Also, the shower faucet leaks unless you really torque down on tightening them.
Second, the cleaning people need to cleaning the corners and under the furniture. There is a lot of fuzz, hair and dust bunnies in the bedroom corners that look like they've been there for a long time.
Thank you!

Great place to chill
Always a pleasure staying in venture out. We've stayed at multiple properties over the years, but never the same one twice because something was always missing. This one was it, and we've already booked for next year.
Lynn was an excellent host. Very quick to respond to any questions you may have. The check in process with the resort leaves a lot to be desired. Security is not friendly nor very helpful. The neighbors we interacted with were very friendly.

House on canal
Other than the mile hike to front door, jk ( wheel chair ramp) the place was great. Plenty of room for docking my boat, clean with all the amenities. I would stay here again. Outdoor space is great on balcony and canal side. Its nice to be able to flush the boat engine after a day out and spray salt off as well. Thank you for the use of your home.
