About this house rental
Amazing canal front 3 bed 3 bath open concept house located in prestigious community of Summerland Key Cove.

This is a great place to fish out of. Nice dock, cleaning table, rod storage and bait freezer. Ramp to 2nd floor is easy on the knees. Bedrooms, kitchen, and living room are all very nice. Luke was a very friendly guy to talk to. Small pool was great to soak in after coming back from fishing.

Hi Luke
Your home is exceptional. It is in a great neighborhood and conveniently situated between the Keys. The neighborhood is beautiful and the people are so friendly. Any minor needs that I had were immediately resolved. Luke is pleasant and very easy to work with. The rental home is always clean and well maintained.
One of my favorite things is sitting and chilling out on the balcony with family and friends. It is absolutely calming and relaxing overlooking the canal from that balcony.
The home is well equipped with all of the essentials for my stay including bikes, paddle boards and canoes.
This is my second stay at this rental. I highly recommend it and I will not hesitate to stay here again. It’s a great place. Myself and the family loved it.

Can't say enough great things about the location of the home and very kind neighbors. Canal is clean, lower floor tackle storage area is immense and has a freezer for bait and extra bathroom. Home needs updating but very clean. We used kayaks, (great paddle area nearby.) Home had some maintenance issues, some took awhile to resolve but owner tried. Very livable and lanai gets great breezes. We enjoyed our stay.

First of all the owner is very friendly and responds quickly. The house was clean but needs some kitchen and bathroom renovation. Don’t get me wrong it’s all functionable and clean. Very quiet neighborhood. 30 min drive to Key West. Nice having the car parked under the car port to keep in the shade. House is divided with a bedroom and bathroom on each side which is nice for privacy. Also a third bathroom on the ground level. Ramp was convenient for luggage.

Luke is a great host: responsive and flexible. The location is great. Not too far from Key West, but also far enough away to unwind when you want to. The boat ramp worked for our 19' skiff but only at the higher of the two high tides each day. The house itself is a little dated and well loved inside but everything is in good working order. The king bed in the master is great, and somewhat of a rare find for vacation rentals in the Keys. Neighbors and everyone we encountered in the neighborhood were very friendly: the friendliest we've experienced in the Keys. The flow through canal was nice and clean and there is good boating, fishing, and diving access nearby in multiple directions. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you Luke.

My girlfriend and I stayed here the month of September. We rented a 27 foot boat for the month and had no problems getting in and out of the deep, wide canals in the neighborhood. House had everything we needed including bikes, kayaks, SUP’s, bait freezer, and a nice Webber grill for cooking fresh catches. Nice room downstairs for setting up and storing all your fishing gear. Easy access to the Gulf and Atlantic with lots of great fishing. Lots of good places to eat and drink nearby.

The sun has set on another August in the Keys on Lagoon and we have already booked 2024. This place meets our needs for our vacation of boating and scuba diving and some remote working ... plenty of room including excellent dock space and lockable storage space for our gear, lovely neighbors, high speed wifi and a cordial and responsive host. Looking forward to next year!

The property location was fantastic! The property itself was perfect for myself, husband and two adult sons. Luke was awesome to work with and quick to respond to all correspondence. The check in process was flawless as well! The home has everything you could possibly need. The kitchen is fully stocked with all necessary items. We loved the cocktail pool on the sea wall, it was perfect for my husband and I. We have been renting in the Keys for many years and this is the first property where all of the neighbors were extremely nice, social and inviting. We actually made friends with our next door neighbors! I would definitely recommend this property to anyone who wants to spend time in paradise!

Everything about our stay was wonderful! Host communications, instructions, location, amenities and great neighbors. Living room furniture was comfortable but will need replacement fairly soon. We would definitely return.
Thanks, Luke!

Great spot for our family of 4 and this is our 3rd year staying a month in Summerland. House is simple and probably one of the originals on the island, but it is well maintained and the best canal spot we've had yet. If you're needing new and shiny, there are other houses at higher price points for you. We trailered our small skiff down and loved the proximity to the open water. House itself was clean and comfortable. Cooking supplies, tons of bikes, kayaks, storage space...all nice bonuses. While it was not a problem for our small family, I still recommend the owner update the listing regarding the 3rd bedroom setup for larger groups- it's connected to the front and only entrance to the house and does not have a real, solid door to close it off from the living/dining area. Still our best rental in the area to date. Thanks for offering it!

We took our 27 ft boat. Dock was excellent. Fish cleaning table was great. Kids loved the paddle boards & kayaks. Bikes were great. We got groceries at Murray’s Market on the bikes. The entrance being through the third bedroom was the only downfall of the house. Location in summerland cove is fabulous.

Back lanai offers excellent views of your boat on the canal and multi-million dollar homes/landscaping. Relaxing part of the island in beautiful Summerland Cove. We found a lobster in the canal and a brown moray eel in the channel using the supplied stand-up paddleboards on one of our non-boating days. We spent most of our time snorkeling, diving, and hunting for lobster in the back country and Atlantic. This house is in a great location for water sports and the seawall was well-maintained. Only downside is the deferred maintenance inside the house, but it appears that the owners are continuing making upgrades. If you're active like us, this shouldn't slow you down.
5.0
This property perfectly suits our needs ... docking for our boat, plenty of downstairs storage for our gear, roomy living and sleeping areas and easy access to the Atlantic or Gulf, marina, boat launch, dive shop and far enough away from Key West and Marathon to be relaxing yet close enough for convenience. Nearby restaurants are excellent. Looking forward to our return next year.

June vacation
The location of this property was great for boating and kayaking, easy access to the ocean without the usual Keys issues of too shallow waters. We knew the property was dated based upon the photos, however we did not realize that a flex space was advertised as a bedroom and that the entrance door to the property was through this room.

Very enjoyable. Nice quiet neighborhood
Great location in the Keyes. Nice quiet neighborhood. Easy check in. Bikes and kayaks with nice grill. Balcony was very nice and peaceful. Champagne pool was to cold. Would recommend updates to the inside of the home. The home was clean and accommodations were very good. Love the ramps for entry to the home. Would stay here again.

Total Relaxation
The house was very comfy and cozy in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood and only 19 miles from Key West. The canal has easy access to the ocean for great fishing and trips to the sandbars. The owner was very prompt in responding to our questions and needs.

Another wonderful year on Lagoon.
We enjoyed our stay this year and are looking forward to our return for 2022. Luke is a great host and very responsive. The home is just what we need for our yearly August dive vacation.

Wonderful Stay!
We enjoyed the house and property! Luke was super responsive and the house was everything we expected. We parked our boat out back and were able to get to all the reefs and locations we wanted in a timely manner. Plenty of sleeping places for our entire family. The kitchen was well stocked. The bikes and kayaks were a nice added bonus. We have been coming to Summerland Cove since 2010. Our other family members had rented a place on Gulf Dr. and it was nice to ride bikes back and forth between the houses. We didn't really use the cocktail pool, since the other house had a full pool we hung out there.
The neighbors were very friendly on either side. We had a wonderful stay and will be back next year.

The house was great for the 6 of us. The location is perfect and the neighborhood is quiet. We loved fishing in the deep canal. There's so much to do in the area. We had a great time!

Wonderful stay ... already scheduled for a return in 2021!
We spent the month of August and had a wonderful stay. The home was clean and comfortable. The owner was very personable and quick to respond and address any questions or anything that needed to be addressed. The owner also provided a wonderful guide explaining everything you needed to know about the property with additional info on the area. The layout worked perfectly for us and the area downstairs is perfect for scuba and fishing gear. The ramp was a blessing ... we are older and ascending stairs with loaded arms was a concern we did not have to deal with at this home. We have already scheduled our return for 2021.

Awesome memories
Our family had another memorable trip to the keys. Luke was a great host and his home was great for our family. Neighbors are very friendly and welcoming. Location is central to Key West and Marathon. Short trip by boat to get out to the Atlantic or gulf. We spent several days riding bikes exploring the neighborhood and trail that is right off the highway. My kids enjoyed taking the kayaks out fishing in the mangroves. Summerland Key is going to be our new summer vacation destination.

Nice quiet location with easy access to open water.
We really enjoyed our stay in Summerland Key! It was great to be able to put our jet skis in the water and take them out right at the house (at high tide). The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you!

A home away from home.
We stayed for 28 days and loved every minute of it. The house is very private and the neighborhood is quiet. The back porch is our favorite part, we opened the door/wall daily and enjoy the breeze. We spent Christmas and New Year in the house to get away and relax for a change and enjoy the peace and quiet. It is so quiet that we only hear crickets at night, no traffic noise at all! I was floored when I first saw the location of the house, very upscale neighborhood! The ramp makes it easy to haul everything upstairs if you have a bad knee. And the owner Luke is very friendly, he answers texts and phone calls immediately. Thank’s Luke, we enjoyed our stay!

Ideal Home Away From Home
For three years, this has been our home away from home during the month of July, and it continues to be the perfect setting for our favorite time of the year. The house is always immaculate and welcoming upon our arrival, and the spacious layout is perfect for large families and families with children. We have stayed in every area of the Keys over the years, and Summerland Key is by far our favorite. The neighborhood is extremely nice, and the canal access is perfect for small or large boats. Truly the best vacation home we have stayed in. We can't wait to return next year!

Great place to bring the family, and great fishing!
We had a great stay on Summerland - the house had everything we needed, and the location had fantastic access to great diving (Looe Key, a couple of wrecks), and fishing spots! Luke was very easy to communicate with and an exceptional host. We had a minor issue with the air conditioning malfunctioning one day, and when I texted Luke to let him know, he had a maintenance person come out to fix it within an hour! We'll definitely stay here again for future family trips!

Great location, quiet neighborhood, easy access to Atlantic and backcountry
We've stayed at this property twice now and really enjoy it. Very clean flow through canal is nice for kids swimming. Not too close and not too far from Key West. Boat ramp on property works great for smaller skiff. Minutes from grocery store, gas and several nice restaurants. Owners are friendly and available. My wife and I have spent a considerable amount of time in the Keys over the last 20 years and this has been one of our favorite rentals.

Excellent neighborhood.
We spent most of the month of November here and really enjoyed the property. It's in a great central location between Key West and Marathon if you want entertainment, yet is tucked away on a dead end street if you want peace and quiet. Kayaks and bikes were fun and the canal was awesome for days on the water.
We had a great time.

My Ideal Home Away From Home
My family has stayed at this house during the month of July the last couple years, and it has always been the best possible experience. We have stayed in every area of the Keys over the years (Marathon, Islamorada, Big Pine Key), but Summerland Key is our favorite, and this is the best house we have stayed in. The neighborhood is quiet, beautiful, and the nicest around, and the house is spacious and immaculate. The water access can't be beat, and it is great to be close to both Key West and our favorite locations for fishing. The small pool served our needs better than we expected; this house and property is the perfect setup for our large group. Any time a slight issue has arisen, the owners are incredibly responsive and helpful, and they are simply wonderful people all-around. We couldn't be happier, and hope to return next year to make more wonderful Keys memories in this lovely home!

Lovely home; Great location; Friendly neighbors
We spent 2 months here and loved every minute. We would have booked it again for next season, but VRBO had it rented before we even arrived. Great view of the canal and peak-a-boo of the bay from balcony. We used the kayaks frequently and had great fun. There were bikes available as well, however, we brought our own with us. Plenty of room in the home and the kitchen is well stocked with cookware. The owner, Luke, is great to work with and very responsive to any issues. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The neighbors are very friendly and helpful for any questions. Great place!

The property was very nice. We liked that it was halfway between Marathon and Key west.
The house was very roomy for us. We liked the extra room downstairs that can be used as an extra bedroom or for storage. The area was very quiet and peaceful. We had a really nice time.

Amazing location everything you need to feel at home in the keys!
I wouldn't change a thing about this house! The porch was amazing for hanging out at night relaxing by the water with friends. It has everything you need to have dinner and relax in the cocktail pool by the water. Our family actually ended up docking their boat at our house because the house is so close to the open water. Luke is great to deal with, you couldn't ask for better. Close to Key West yet close to everything else you you need. We can't wait to come back!
