Hannah B.Vacation Getaway
This home was absolutely beautiful! My husband and I, along with his family, stayed here and it accommodated 6 adults, 1 teen, a baby, and even our dog—everyone was perfectly comfortable. We loved relaxing by the pool and watching the stunning sunsets in the afternoons. The private dock was such a bonus—it made hopping on the boat to go fishing or exploring so easy and convenient. Morgan was an amazing host! She made sure we were taken care of from start to finish and was always quick to answer any questions before, during, and after our stay. We also appreciated how close the home was to Key West—just a 45-minute drive—so we were able to spend plenty of time exploring there too. This was truly a dream vacation come true, and we can’t wait to come back again!

Leigh K.Paradise Found!
We truly enjoyed this beautiful home for the month of January. The home is updated and nicely decorated, very comfortable with all the amenities that one needs. It’s in a great location, very peaceful and serene with a private pool/bar area. The owners, Morgan and Ricky, were very easy to communicate with. It was definitely hard to leave, but plan to return!

Ronda H.WOW! WOW! WOW!
This place was perfect! Serenity abounds. Hanging out by the pool or eating in the beautiful sun porch - it was true relaxation with views of water and palm trees. With the set up of a separate guest wing, we two couples each felt like we had our own privacy and space - but came together in the amazing kitchen to mix drinks and make snacks. Easy access to Key West or Marathon, lots of cool places to eat. We hired a boat and captain for one day and discovered mangrove islands and a great sand bar. We saw dolphins, sharks, and jellyfish. The home is beautiful, well stocked with all of he kitchen essentials - even TWO blenders for making frozen drinks :-) Even a basket of beach towels and some great pool floats. This owner has thought of everything.

Karen K.Fabulous Stay on Little Torch Key
We just returned from a six-week stay at Morgan's home. I say "home" because it really does feel comfortable and relaxing as a home away from home should feel. It was impeccably clean and the kitchen is stocked with everything we needed for our extended stay. We loved the location, nice neighborhood, easy drive to Big Pine or Key West and, if you love to fish as we do, the location can't be beat. We had a slight problem with internet due to power outage in area (not homeowner's fault) and Morgan went above and beyond to ensure we were back online as soon as possible. We loved hanging out at pool after fishing and on our days off. I can't think of anything that the house didn't offer!

Mary R.Best VRBO I have ever stayed in!
My husband, 4 children and I stayed in this wonderful home fall Nov 2023. We had an amazing time! This is one of the best VRBO I have ever stayed in! My husband and I could not think of one thing to suggest to the owner when she asked if it needed any improvements! It was absolutely perfect! They have thought of everything! The hand held vacuum, along with several other vacuum options, the stool for the kids in the bathroom, heated pool, a Keurig, drip & French press as coffee options, fully stocked kitchen, places to hang your towels in the bathroom, tons of toys for the kids (inside and for the pool), plenty of towels, sheets etc., nice quality lounge chairs and all furniture was in great condition! There were umbrellas outside and the TV outside was nice so we could play music on it, all so perfect!Also everything was very clean!!It is perfectly located in the lower keys, some of our favorite restaurants weren’t too far and our fav coffee shop was right there, the morning joint ️ There is also a small grocery store close by, Murray’s Market.The owner was easy to contact, she sent a sweet email before our stay and I was able to text her with anything I needed or questions I had even before we arrived.Thank you Morgan We will definitely share your beautiful home with others and we will be back!

Walter K.Family time in Little Torch and a water lovers dream house
We loved the house that was recently remodeled. All of the furniture, appliances and decor are top shelf! The setting on the canal with the new boat lift for our 26' boat was so convenient and perfect for our vacation. We enjoyed the beautiful pool, landscaping, patio and outside bar. If you like water, boating, cooking and the perfect atmosphere for fun, this is the house for you. The owners are amazing and want your stay to be memorable forever. Also, it is very convenient to Key West, Cudjoe, Marathon and Islamorada for excursions. Little Torch is in the perfect position in the Keys in our opinion, not to mention that it is right beside Big Pine Key for all the supplies you will ever need. Cheers!!

Codi Orvin R.Felt like home
We were beyond happy with our stay. The house was so comfortable it felt like home away from home. Morgan was more than helpful with suggestions on what to do to where to eat. She would quickly return a message if there were ever any questions. The canal was a fabulous place to enjoy fishing with the Kids and the pool was something they enjoyed from sun up to sun down. The location couldn’t have been any better. Close enough to everything but tucked away enough to just enjoy family time! It was one of the best retreats to date!
