Annual Family Dive Trip

We booked this property the first week of lobster season. It was clean, spacious and located in a great area. The dockage was very convenient. The pool and downstairs area were a great place to congregate after a day of diving. Any concerns or questions were addressed immediately by the onsite staff. We had a super enjoyable stay and would highly recommend this.

Amazing!

We had the best time at Keys Cove #5 this week! It was a great location, private off the road, yet easily accessible for day trips to Key West, the local beaches, and north to Islamorada. House was new, clean, and a/c worked great (we needed after our hot days exploring!) It included everything we needed… beach towels and chairs, etc. We enjoyed the private pool and cornhole. Just a short walk to the community dock with kayaks and paddle boards was amazing, too. Susan, with rental company, was especially helpful as well. We will definitely be back!

Perfect multi-family stay

This property was perfect for our family gathering. We were able to stay together but each have our own space. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean, and the fridge was big enough for all of us to share. Talking to management was easy but not necessary since the house had no issues. Check in and check out were very easy. The porch was a great place to hang in the shade, everyone enjoyed the small but big enough pool, and we all had covered parking. The dock area was beautiful and I wish we could have taken advantage of it but with 105 weather, we weren’t able to. The house is close to everything. It only took minutes to get anywhere on Marathon we wanted to go. We will definitely recommend this property to anyone taking a big group to the Marathon area.

Great time in Marathon

Great property and very convenient to everything. House was very clean and the kids had a great time in pool. The dock made it very easy to hop in the boat and go cruising, fishing and snorkeling.

Michigan and Canada Family time

Charges didn’t add up. Got two different totals. When inquired about it to property manager he said because we went thru a third party, he didn’t have all the information. Will try to verify when we get home. Other than the confusing billing the place was nice other than our pool was in the shade most of the time.

Nice 4 bedroom home

The rental was very clean and conveniently located. Just an hour from Key West. Everything was as listed in rental description except no outdoor TV .The pool was clean, it did not recieve much sun due to the trees/scrubs surrounding it, was heated as advertised. The sand beach area was really nice and my husband enjoyed fishing from the dock.

Beautiful place

We had a wonderful experience. The house was clean, exactly as pictured, a lot of linens. The house was not finished being cleaned until 5:30 and check in should have been 4. I would have been upset except we ran into traffic and arrived just as she was leaving. The owner came on property to check the pool and did not introduce himself before entering the pool area which we thought was unprofessional. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay!

Great break from winter in the Midwest!

Great responsiveness to questions etc. by Jessieca and her team! Had 4 adults and 3 kids there for a week. The private small pool (3.5' to 4.5' deep) right by the house worked out great as it was heated perfectly and in the shade (reduced need for always putting on sunscreen)! It worked fine for the kids ages 4 and 7 to paddle around in (with their parents) as we brought their own appropriately sized life jackets for them to wear. The bedroom with 2 twin beds had its own TV and the 7 yr. and 4 yr. olds thought they were a prince and princess! They could watch TV in their own room. Everyone had a great time! The house worked out great! Loved sitting on the covered porch too!

Perfect Vacation Rental!

If you are looking for a place to go that feels like a home away from home, I highly recommend Keys Cove. The staff is so kind and helpful and will make sure you have what you need upon arrival. As well they have their own private beach area where you can use the kayaks or just lay out and watch the water. The houses are beautiful! Definitely recommend for larger groups looking to stay together to look here. The homes are spacious and have everything you would need for your stay. There is a private pool with each home that has pool items to go with and there is corn hole. We are already planning our next trip and will be planning our stay here!

Central Keys location and close to two nice beaches

Very clean and well stocked kitchen. Management was excellent and very responsive. We didn’t have many issues but when we did they responded immediately and pleasantly. Outside amenities were great—heated pool, grill area and cornhole/sand area. We thoroughly enjoyed. Pleasantly surprised with abundance of towels/beach towels. Only thing we would have liked was extra blankets. Overall, excellent.

AMAZING!!!

I could go on and on about Jessica, but let me just sum it up with 1 word…AMAZING!!! As an owner of multiple homes on Lake Cumberland that we rent to vacationers, I am probably a bit “over critical” if you will but let me just tell you, she must live in a Genie bottle on the property because anytime you need anything, regardless how small & petty, she was there in a flash with the “fix”. The house was very clean and came equipped with even more things than one would have expected!!! I have definitely found my “go-to” spot as we travel down to fish!!! Thanks again Jessieca for everything…you’re a Rock-Star!!!

Had a wonderful time with family and friends (9 total). Very clean, well laid out, fully stocked of all necessities, great location! Enjoyed the private pool area with grill for cooking dinners. Freezer down by pool was a nice extra. Dock was very nice and easy access from boat ramp. Jessica and Barbara were both wonderful from the time we arrived. Would definitely stay again. Thanks for a great long weekend!
