Marathon, Florida
BOOT KEY RETREAT - OPEN WATER VIEWS - Just updated in 2019
Not your typical canal house, there is plenty of privacy here. You'll be in your own secluded, retreat. Your own private heated pool, 130 ft. concrete dock, a 400 lb. Ice Machine Plus a beautiful private HOT water outdoor shower,
Foosball Table, and views! You're not looking at the neighbors across the canal and they're not looking at you. Your view is of open water, nature's own show. There's always something going on. Fish swimming and splashing, exotic birds searching for food. You can pay more, and you can pay less, but we honestly believe, you won't find better VALUE for your vacation dollar.
You'll watch boats in the harbor and the countless dingies comings and goings. Bring your binoculars, you never know what to expect. You can relax, be yourself, feel at home here. A simple evening here will be a lifetime memory. It's a real 'Retreat' from your normal everyday life.
You'll have 2 kayaks and 4- bikes for your use at no additional cost. If your kids are old enough, these can be real fun entertainment for them, or you! Our dock, 130 ft., will accommodate a small flats boat or a 35 ft center console, or both.

The property was well furnished and clean. The entrance to the street is not inviting but the property itself is very nice and at a very nice location adjacent to the water
We enjoyed the house it was clean and met our needs perfectly. The bonus of the kayaks and paddleboards was amazing. My kids (19) and (14) spent hours in the canal. We went to the Marathon Bait and Tackle and were able to rent a couple of fishing poles for $25/each for the entire week. This also provided some great entertainment. The Florida fishing license was only $30 for the week. The pool was awesome to relax in after a few hours of exploring on the kayaks/paddleboards. The host provided a basket full of beach towels for renters to utilize. We would book this house again if we were to come back down to Marathon. However, I did tell my husband that the next time we need to rent a boat for the week. I would have loved to do a lot more exploring.
Excellent communication with property management.
Property was easy to enjoy with plenty of space inside and out. We spent time in the pool every day, enjoyed kayaking & paddle boarding in the harbor, biked to the seven mile bridge a few times and you are close to a lot of great restaurants.
House was very well equipped. Met all our needs. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals. The outdoor space and pool were fabulous!
We had a great stay! Property had everything we needed, super clean! Great location for your boat!
We have stayed at a few palces in Marathon and this place is wonderful. Good location, clean, great amenities with a heated pool. The place has everything advertised and more. We would definitely stay here again
We loved everything about our stay, this house is perfect has everything you need! We would defiantly stay here again if we get a chance to go back!
This was the second time we have stayed here. We enjoyed it just as much as the first. I love the pool and the general location of the house since it's pretty central in Marathon. Trish, the property manager was great to deal with and we never had to wait if we had a question about something. We all loved the new outdoor furniture upgrade since the last time we were there. You never know... we may be back again some day!!
We have rented many places in the past but this home was really great. Here’s what made it awesome, 1. Pool was lovely and heated! 2. We’ll stocked kitchen. 3. Owner had gone the extra mile on the outdoor furniture. 4. They even had a basket of beach towels for your use. 5. Bicycles and Kayaks to use with no additional rental fees. Really a nice place. My only cons would be that this house was off the beaten path. And the neighbors roosters woke me every morning very early! Neither of these would stop me from renting this place again!
Very well equipped and maintained. Lots of space - nice view - beautiful sunsets.
This property has everything you need for a relaxing vacation . The location gives easy access to the gulf or the ocean by boat .. Plenty of options for restaurants and bars near by .
We really enjoyed our stay. Everything about the property was as advertised. The backyard area with pool was awesome. The kitchen was well stocked, lots of towels, beds comfortable. Owner and property manager very responsive. Would stay again
We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful canal front home in Marathon. The house is just as described. Very comfortable, clean and equipped with everything you need. The property manager makes the check in and check out process easy and is available if needed to answer any questions. The pool is amazing and we enjoyed seeing the manatees swim up to the property. Great place to stay and located near stores and restaurants. We had a fantastic time and hope to be back!
The house was all we hoped it would be. We would not hesitate to stay again. The pool was amazing, the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was great. We had access to bikes, kayaks and paddle boards. The manatees were so fun to watch. We had no issues whatsoever and we could not have been happier. Definitely recommend!
The house was clean and well equipped. The pool was clean and relaxing at the end of each day. The manatees were a special treat.
What a wonderful home. The owners have thought of everything! Boot key is beautiful, the pool was so relaxing and we had visits with the manatees. We biked, kayaked and paddle boarded . Loved kayaking at low tide , we were able to find starfish. We rented a boat for three days and we’re able to keep it right out front! The manatees were probably our favorite as they hung around to provide entertainment. Both the owner and property manager were very responsive. If you are looking for a private home with your own resort feel, this is your place. Thank you for sharing your home with us!!
