About this house rental

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.

House and property were clean and pretty much as described. There were a few minor issues with things that were broken or not working when we arrived. The house had a lot of extras, like the ice maker, extra fridge and freezers which were great for fishing. The only thing that we missed were beach chairs. The canal is very narrow and made it a little tough to turn a boat around. By far the biggest complaint, which is completely out of the property owners hands, is the neighbor across the canal. He played loud music almost every day and some nights until 4am and it appeared that he lives there. Overall, it was a good location with plenty of good restaurants and sombrero beach close by.

This is our 3rd time staying at Bootkey Retreat and we just love it. The house includes a fully stocked.kitchen, linens, blankets and bedding. The location on the canal is breath taking. The swimming pool was beautifully kept. Just overall a great place to stay you definitely wont be disappointed. The property manager Trish was very helpful and prompt getting back to me with all concerns.

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.
