Your Own Home Steps From The Ocean

The beach is your backyard:
Sunrise over the ocean, sunset behind the coconut trees, stars reflecting in the water like diamonds, this is what frames your daily life at Ray's Place.
Here, you are reminded of how beautiful the world is.
And...you are invited to discover additional thrills that nature has to offer: when the timing is right indulge yourself in the contemplation of the moon rising over the ocean.

It is our pleasure to welcome you to our little slice of paradise.
We ourselves live on property. There are also four additional vacation rentals on site. Each of them can only accommodate two guests.

We offer a clean, functional and fully detached single wide mobile home.
It has been recently renovated and embraces beautifully the beach lifestyle with a Florida Keys touch.
It is spacious, well organized, and would comfortably welcome four guests.
Through the many windows it radiates natural sunlight throughout the day.
It is surrounded by native trees and lush tropical landscaping.
A cozy outdoor dining area is reserved for you in the shade just outside your front door.

The tiki area is a few steps away, it is shared with all guests.
The property is 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.

In addition to all the attractions you have planned to visit there is plenty to do right here on property: you are welcome to enjoy a barbecue cookout at the Tiki, a leisurely swim in the warm waters right in front of the property, or a kayak excursion (kayaks available to owners and vacationers only). The beach is your backyard... snorkel gear comes in handy, so do water shoes and a fishing license.

Across the street is the beginning of a very nicely renovated section of the Florida Keys Heritage Trail that leads you all the way to the town of Marathon. We particularly like to 'go for a walk' there early in the morning when a variety of birds are out and about. These include cardinals, mangrove cuckoos, white-crowned pigeons and yellow throat warblers.

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. you do not need a park entrance ticket to stroll the hammock located on the
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 delightfully 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. We are so proud of our Grassy Key Island that we have to boast about it!

Amenities at a Glance:
-Tiki hut with picnic table 5 ft from the ocean
-Lounge chairs by the Tiki
-Free use of kayaks
- Beach towels
-Barbecue
- Outdoor personal washer and dryer.

This is a NON SMOKING property. Smoking is not permitted inside the home OR on property grounds.

Perfect little slice of paradise away from the hustle and bustle of a resort. We enjoyed the kayaks, beach chairs and relaxation. Housing was simple but they thought of everything we would need Bill & Isabelle were so welcoming!!

The trailer we stayed in was clean and comfortable. The grounds were not luxurious but I didn't find the town to be any better. Definitely not a tropical or fancy vacation but was fine for passing through.

Nice location and clean
Location is great for boat access with the canel. Home was very clean but could use some updates and repairs in bathrooms, kitchen and ceiling fans. Quiet neighborhood and close to attractions for the location.
