Authentic And Charming Little Cottage 60 Ft From The Ocean

A beautiful cottage is awaiting you on Grassy Key. Built in the original Keys architecture, the cottage is free standing with windows on all sides. The efficiency holds true to its name as it is small, but very functional. Being a stone's throw away from the ocean you can enjoy partial ocean views from your bed on the west and from your dining table on the east. It offers everything you need for a good night's sleep, a refreshing shower and a good breakfast before you start your day in tropical paradise.

After a day full of adventures don't forget to relax at our oceanfront tiki and hammock. From here there is no telling what wildlife might amaze you. If marveling at the beauty of the ocean from the shore doesn't satisfy your fascination for the ocean, then treat yourself to an outing on one of our kayaks. Head for the nearby rock ruins and be prepared to see many dazzling fish.

In our neighborhood, Tursi, Gambit and friends are waiting to put on a show for you at the Dolphin Research Center. Home to Flipper in the 60's, DRC is located 1/4 of a mile from the property.

One mile south of us is Curry Hammock State Park. Ten miles north is Long Key State Park. Both have wonderful ocean access and trails.

Three miles out to sea is marker 45, a nice place to fish mangrove and yellowtail snappers, and a few more miles South is Coffin's Patch Reef, a delightful protected area to dive or snorkel. Both locations are a few minutes away by boat from the property.

These are merely suggestions in addition to all the wonderful things that are yours to discover throughout the Florida Keys.


Amenities At A Glance:
-Free use of kayaks
-Barbecue
-WiFi
- Beach towels
-Washer and dryer on property at no additional charge. Laundry soap provided as well.
-Conveniently located in the middle of the Keys at mile marker 58. Ideal for day trips from Marathon to Key West, Key Largo and Islamorada.


This is a NON SMOKING property. Smoking is not permitted inside the apartment or property grounds.

We have included images of our property contract in our photos of the listing. Please read over the contract before booking.

PLEASE NOTE: The beaches of South Florida are prone to an inundation of the Sargassum seaweed during the summer months (May - October). According to environmental forecasts, the peak of the seaweed washup for 2023 will be in June.

Peaceful and relaxing!
Cottage was very clean and comfortable. Host was amazing and very accommodating! Private beach was a plus and relaxing. Love that this was adult only and non smoking property, which includes a gas grill. The location was central and great for day trips in both upper and lower keys. Would definitely book here on my next trip! We are not condo people so this was perfect! Quaint historic Florida style!

Not quite as expected.
Please NOTE, there is no beach here. Only a breakwall and a boat dock. Pictures and description makes you believe it has a beach. The grounds were found to be very unkept with piles of leaves on one side and old boats laying around the property. The tiki hut seen in the pictures is just about to fall apart, you can see the sky out the roof. The house itself was functional but in need of some help. Seemed to us the owners gave up, but are still willing to take your rent. The laundry was under a lean-to, outside, and nothing we would ever use. The price was right, but we got what we paid for, a place to sleep.

Jackpot location for a relaxing Keys vacation
My new wife and I stayed at Bill and Isabelle’s cottage for our honeymoon. We stayed in the house for 9 nights and it was a blast! The house is just exactly what we needed. We stayed in a hotel our first night in Florida and this was much much better. The property is quiet and peaceful. We loved taking advantage of the kayaks to explore the mangroves which were not far away. We really felt that this house was in the perfect location for anyone who wants to experience the outdoor beauty of the keys. If we ever return to the keys, we’ll definitely give Bill, Isabelle, and Heather a call!
