Torchview Lookout- Secluded Waterfront Retreat With 240’ Dock On Niles Channel

3rd stay here. Perfect for a chilled vacation with kids. Swimming, snorkelling, fishing and viewing amazing sunsets. Will be coming back as often as possible. New ownership said they will be working on upgrading amenities. Maybe some patio/beach furniture, a kayak or two and some snorkelling fishing gear available would be nice? We rented kayaks and bought 3 sets of fishing gear. Loved it as always

The house was even better than expected! Perfect for a week in the sun. We enjoyed that it was secluded from neighbors but not far from the essentials. The host was quick to respond! We hope to stay at Torchview again!

Great location in a tranquil area.

Contactless Host but easy to communicate with. Great house, & Gorgeous property. We had an amazing time. Thank you so much.

This was the perfect getaway. Close enough to drive up and down the keys but secluded enough you feel like you are in your own little world. Spent many hours out on the boat dock taking in the views and the wildlife. Sunsets on the dock are amazing. House is beautiful and on a dead end road. 45 minutes to Key West and 2 hours to Key Largo was perfectly situated for us.

Magical week. So much to do on property! Got my teens to unplug!

We enjoyed our stay, and all as advertised. Dock was fun to snorkel around. House was stocked but kitchen needs a good cleaning and organizing. Water pipe broke as soon as we tried to do laundry and flooded the downstairsOther drawbacks were the challenge of not having water for boat cleaning after day on water, and pretty buggy.

This was our 3rd time staying here and once again it did not disappoint. From Key deer in the front yard to great fishing off the dock everything was awesome. We can’t wait to come back for our fourth stay!

Off the beaten path. Very private, clean and well appointed.

Great place, beautiful water to fish, snorkel, kayak, paddle board. Clean , comfortable house. Sunsets on the wharf are amazing.Tarpon, parrot fish, snapper everywhere

It was a beautiful home and Francine, our host, was most accommodating.

The location was perfect, pristine waters, long dock, peaceful, absolutely beautiful setting. The house had many issues, from ac that took forever to cool, to window crank handles (4) that either fell off in your hand or just didn’t work, slider screens were missing, wouldn’t close/open or just fell off, drywall all over ceiling cracked and pieces that fell down on the floor, filthy pans put away in cabinets, pocket doors in bedroom and bathroom wouldn’t close. Property manager responded immediately and agreed to refund the money, so I applaud her for her part. This place just needs owner to give much needed tlc. It’s a fantastic location with views to die for but in extreme disrepair. I will be looking for another rental in the same area, but for the price, not this one.

Great location if you’re just looking for peace and quiet. sunsets are beautiful

Beautiful home.

Just got back from an amazing stay at torchview. The property grounds are so well cared for and the wildlife is a bonus! The house is in a great location, I would definitely advise a boating app such as navtronics to assist with low tide since the channel markers are gone. The dock is phenomenal and the sunsets were gorgeous. We were on our boat everyday but I think younger kids would so enjoy the artificial reef under the dock. We saw tons of fish and several lobsters, and an eel. We caught black fin tuna and snapper almost every day. The kitchen is a beautiful gathering spot to chat with family while cooking. This is the perfect space if you are looking to disconnect. So quiet!! We also brought our paddleboards with us and enjoyed the sights around the channel. I would 100% recommend this place to an active family! Kayaks or paddleboards would make this destination even better! We all loved our time here! My oldest son asked his girlfriend to marry him on the dock so this place will always be remembered fondly!

We loved the large acreage with boat dock and fish at the property. Nice views. Spacious house set up for fishing.
