We stayed at the end of March with our 3 kids for Spring Break. Lots of space to spread out, and the house had everything one could need. There were a couple of minor glitches when we were there (a failed hot tub switch) but Barry was quick to answer the phone and control the tub from a phone app until the switch could be replaced. Excellent customer service, Barry is great to work with! We didn't bring a boat, but fished from the seawall most evenings and caught an assortment of snappers, grunts, angelfish, etc. A #2 or #4 hook, small split shot, and a bit of frozen shrimp did the trick to at least catch some fish. We saw a couple of manatees, and some giant tarpon as well. We even snorkeled a bit in the canal one sunny afternoon, and saw even more varieties of fish, including some bright parrotfish. The neighborhood is very quiet being on a dead end street, and no neighbors across due to to the nature preserve. Easy to get anywhere on Marathon from the location. Since it is right by the airport, you do hear some planes and small jets once in a while, but it isn't enough to not want to stay here. As with anywhere in the Keys, be sure to plan to have the right bug spray for no see-ums if you are going to hang out by the pool around dusk. We forgot that our first night, and our legs and ankles showed it. This would be a perfect house for a long term stay, we'd definitely stay here for a couple months in the winter when we get to that point in our lives.
