Our waterfront, single-family home, affectionately named “Turtle Cove”, offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and an 80 ft seawall with quick ocean access! This tastefully furnished Keys home is located on a quiet side street in a residential neighborhood on the Atlantic side of the Island, just 5 houses from open water.
The open living and dining room space is great for gathering with plenty of seating for everyone … a great environment to sit back, relax, and talk about your daily and upcoming adventures!

Being just a short distance from the Atlantic, you’ll be diving, snorkeling, or have your lines in the water in no time! If you don’t have a boat of your own, there are plenty of rental services or guide services in the area. When you aren’t out enjoying our beautiful Atlantic Ocean or your private pool and hot tub, you’ll enjoy a host of other entertainment options…you will be minutes from Sombrero Beach, Turtle Hospital, Crane Museum and just a short drive to the Dolphin Research Center or Aquarium where you will learn about the wonderful sea life in the area.

In case you can’t get to the outdoors or to our sites or are winding down in the evenings, we have a large screen TV with a DVD player to watch movies and have a few games and puzzles if that is your thing.

There are so many great restaurants to try in the area, it will be hard to pick a night to stay in and cook on your own. But if you do, you’ll find that our kitchen is stocked with cooking essentials. You’ll appreciate the stainless steel appliances and granite countertops with plenty of room to prep! Of course, we provide standards: A coffee pot, Keurig, toaster, blender, and plenty of serving dishes.

Upstairs has two bedrooms: One canal side with a King bed and sliding glass doors to access the outside; the second has a queen bed. Our lower level, which is accessible from the outside, has a full and twin bed, a seating area with a TV and a little serving station with a microwave and small refrigerator to hold some essentials.

Our outdoor living area provides a gas grill and even a bait freezer for your convenience. Additionally, the dock has a cleaning station, electricity, and water. We have one two-person kayak for guest use.

We have such a great property to offer. Hopefully, the description answers all your questions but please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or special requests. We look forward to hosting you and your guests in our home!

Note also that if you have a large group, we have another property two doors down, just 3 houses from the ocean. Look for our sister property, Manatee Cove! This stunning 4br/2ba home with pool and hot tub is perfect for large group gatherings. Between the two properties, we can accommodate up to 18 guests. Look for Property 8513

Note that if we are offering a special last minute, it is for last minute specials, we do not apply the special rates to advance bookings made when the special was not offered.

We require Saturday to Saturday bookings only at this time.

Boat size: No more than 30' is recommended for our canal. We have guests currently booked that have concerns about the depth of the canal coming in so I'm providing more information to help future guests - we have a 30' boat and only have issues during king tides at low tide only. If you are an experienced boater, you can get in and out of our canal with no problem. Please reach out before booking if you have questions or concerns so we can provide more details if you require them.

Pets: We prefer smaller dogs, not too hairy - please send us a note first to confirm your pet is okay to stay. It's an extra $175 per week (plus tax) for a pet.

When you are reviewing the calendar, the check in is always a Saturday and check out is a Saturday. Display may appear as if the date is blocked, it is not.
