Further Details: President Truman discovered Duck Key in 1946 when he stayed here while recovering from a bad cough. During his stay each morning, he would walk the Island and commented daily on the clear turquoise waters that surround Duck Key. When you arrive on the residential Island, you will have to cross the Truman Bridge. Even now you will see people walking, jogging, biking or running through Duck Key.
Downstairs at our duplex, there is a freezer, fish cleaning table, BBQ Grill, patio furniture and 40 feet of dockage for your boat. Fish off the dock, or swim in our beautiful pool. The yard is landscaped with brick pavers and landscape lights. There is covered parking for your cars and parking for your boat trailer. We can include a fishing and sightseeing charter with your lodging.
The Unique Benefits at this House: For those of you that are bringing a boat, my husband, who is a local Charter Captain will share some great fishing spots with you. If you are not bringing a boat, Capt. Lee will take you on a boat ride along the beautiful canals of Duck Key.

Great place to stay

Our family had a wonderful stay at Lee and Lynn’s vacation home. Just what we needed...relaxing, boating, fishing, swimming and enjoying family time. The house is very clean with all the accommodations needed. The backyard was so peaceful with the view and plants. Lee and Lynn are wonderful!! They were always there to help and we truly enjoyed our time with them. Thanks to Lee we got some pointers on pretty much everything for boating and fishing. We can’t wait to return sometime next year. Thank you Lynn and Lee for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Since nine years we spend our vacations in the Florida Keys, mostly on the lower Keys. This year we rented our house from Lynn and Lee on Duck Key for the second time – and … it will not be the last time!
The rental is beautiful, very well maintained and very clean. It is one half of a duplex, with own driveway and own entrance. Inside you will find everything you need: fully equipped kitchen incl. icemaker and everything you need for a good BBQ (the Weber is downstairs …). Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, lots of towels, spacious living and dining area – what else do you need for a perfect vacation?
The rental has a screened porch where we used to have breakfast and dinner. Ventilators help to cool down outside. From the porch you have a beautiful view of the canal, all the boats and houses.
Downstairs you can park your car in the shade underneath the house. The garden is awesome – tropical plants and flowers everywhere including Key-Lime trees. Next to the pool is a shady sitting area and it is only steps from the canal.
The canal is somewhat special – it is one of very few canals in the keys that is “open” on both sides, so current is passing through it, bringing fresh water with every cycle. Cristal clear water gives a good view to all kind of fish. We saw small fish, parrot fish, jacks, tarpons, sharks, stingrays and even a manatee.
Our landlords Lynn and Lee are awesome. Friendly, kind and answering all our questions. Lee is also a charter boat captain with First Love Charters. He took us with his boat for a fishing trip to his secret spots. We caught a lot of fish – snappers, mackerel, sharks and more. It was a beautiful and pleasant day on the water without hurry and lots of explanations and help from Lee. He is an outstanding captain!
To bring to the point: it was exactly the vacation we wanted to have. And we will be back in 2020 – we already booked our next vacation with Lynn and Lee. Thank you so much for letting us be your guests!

This was one of the most relaxing vacations we have had in many years. No worries and very peaceful. The accommodations were wonderful, and the house is beautiful to every aspect. The grounds are manicured with exotic plants, and also with several Key Lime trees at your footsteps; to help refresh those poolside drinks. The harbor is crystal clear, with lots of sea life passing through, my wife and daughter watched the fish, sea turtles and occasional sting rays pass through on a daily basis. Lynn and Lee, are wonderful people who went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. I recommend this location Highly!

We stayed here in May and had a wonderful time. We have visited Duck Key for years and this location is a favorite. The home is immaculate - decorated beautifully. We had 4 adults and plenty of space. The home is very well equipt, nothing needed. It is clear the owners take great pride in their home - it shows. We will be back next time we have a group of 4.

This was our third visit to the Keys but our first time staying in Duck Key, and we loved it! After our original accommodation in KCB was cancelled at short notice, Lynn was really helpful and let us rent her beautiful home which was far better than we could've imagined. The house has everything you need and more, we really didn't want to leave! Lynn & Lee are a great couple who go out of their way to make you feel so welcome.
The pool at the house is great, and we saw manatees and shark from the dock. We loved Sombrero beach in Marathon, the sunset cruise from Duck Key and the Grassy Key Outpost market & grill is a fabulous place to eat and shop! Thank you Lynn & Lee for making our holiday really special, we can't wait to return next year.

Absolutely awesome, beautiful home with evrything you might need and more. The best set-up in the Keys with no comparison, it was so good we stayed in the pool more than going out on the boat. We already made our reservation for next year. Owners live next door and are very friendly & helpful, this was the most relaxing vacation we have had.
Hopefully all future renters are good and don't ruin a good thing for the rest of us.

The owners have spared no expense in this property. Tasteful coastal decor abounds in this well appointed home. We had a wonderful time. The owners made us feel so welcome and comfortable - like friends. The new pool is refreshing. For the fishermen - it has it all: dock, fish cleaning station, outdoor shower, and a captain to boot (we didn't fish with Capt Lee but were envious of all his catches). You will not be disappointed.

GREAT! Everything is new and spotless. Big comfortable rooms and beds. Even the fold out couch is comfortable. Great dock for a boat with quick access to ocean or gulf. BEAUTIFUL WARM POOL.
If you want to catch fish talk to the owner. A real fishing captain with years of know how. He's available for charters on a beautiful and capable 30' boat. Specializing in light tackle I learned lots of new tricks!
Great hosts who really made us all feel most welcome. Couldn't have asked for more. Maybe two months next time.

If you are particular about where you stay then this is for you. All of the previous reviews were totally accurate.The house is clean, well equiped, and the hosts always entertaining. Lee can tell you all you need to know about the local fishing and if you want to book him for a charter do it early as he is always busy. Tom's Harbour a short walk for Happy Hour!!
Life on Duck Key is just the way you expect it. Relaxing, relaxing, relaxing. Will go back again for sure.
