Buchanan Keys Cottage

Take a step back into “Old Keys” living. Once Upon A Tide; there was a sense of tranquility & peacefulness found throughout the Keys, like the one you will uncover when choosing to stay at this private, serene, 1/1 oceanfront cottage. 



Located on Grassy Key, this beautiful home is just 10 minutes from the City of Marathon. Far enough to be away from the hustle & bustle, but closeenough to make a grocery/store run a “Keys breeze”. 

Out front you will be greeted by lush landscaping, surrounding a long & spacious driveway. With enough parking for all of your trucks, trailers & water toys.

Around back you’ll find the brand new, 6 person, 96 jet hot tub! Leave it cool in the summer to refresh yourself from the Florida heat, or turn it on full blast in the winter to give your body a much needed heated massage.

Take a stroll down lovers lane & you’ll be quietly greeted by the Keys Ocean breeze. Lay down in your hammock between two native trees, and let your mind drift off while staring into the vast array of greens and blues.





You’ve made it; Peace. At. Last.



Inside you will find a cool, clean & neatly decorated home.

The living room offers extra sleeping space, with a queen pullout bed in the sofa near the entryway of the home. (The two chairs pictured have been replaced).

There is also a separate sofa that can be used to relax, watch TV or play board games. Your choice!



You will find the kitchen well equipped, including an oven/stove, sink, refrigerator/freezer, microwave & dishwasher. Also provided are pots, pans & kitchen utensils.

The one & only bedroom is cute & cozy. Snuggle up in the central A/C after a long hot day in the Keys sun or stream your favorite shows from our complimentary Smart TV

You will also have access to the spotless full bathroom, equipped with sink, toilet, shower, & laundry room (not pictured) w/ washer & dryer.

If you want to experience authentic, uninterrupted, “Keys Living” at it's best, this is your place!

    We spent a week enjoying this old style keys home. The property is like having your own private nature park. So quiet and peaceful. Loved all the mature trees and landscaping. Sunsets from the dock were breathtaking. The house itself had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommended!!!!

    This property is perfect for the 2 of us. Very relaxing atmosphere. The hammock and jet spa allowed us to ease back. The location provided easy access to any activities or just to sit on the deck and watch the waves on the Gulf.
