Great location for visiting the Florida Keys.

The house was very clean and well stocked for your daily needs along with beach towels and chairs. Fishing poles and bicycles are there as well. We loved the variety of the different flowers and vegetation she has on the property which supports the butterflies. Everything was just starting to bloom but we still got to see a few of them. We spent a few hours in the jacuzzi which was wonderful as well. There is the airport just across the street that you can watch various airplanes as well as some helicopters fly in and out. Just a heads up, can get a little noisy at times! Do check out the various locations to enjoy the fabulous sunset there. We found a great little spot at a place called Sunset Park, I believe. Interacted to some wonderful residents there a few times! We made trips to several beaches and parks as well as to Key West while there. Overall, just a wonderful vacation and we thank you Erica for letting us stay at your home!!

Loved the Butterfly House

Stayed at the Butterfly House for a family wedding we were attending. The house was clean and spacious. Everyone was easily accommodated. The home and ammenities listed were accurately described. We had an issue with one of the toilets. When we contacted the property manager, Marianna, addressed the issue in a prompt manner. Not only do I highly recommend, I would definitely stay again at this property if I was visiting Marathon.
