Description

Slip into the beach lifestyle and leave the daily grind behind when you book your stay at this oceanfront Layton cottage. With a dock, expansive deck, and a stunning beach location, you may never want to leave. With historic roots as the home to the 1900's author, Zane Grey, and easy access to a bevy of beach activities, your stay promises to be hassle-free. Enjoy days of fishing for tarpon at the Long Key Viaduct just a short distance from the home. This rental is part of a duplex with a second rental - book one of the rentals, or the entire duplex. Kick off the sand and step into the cozy main living room decorated in a mixture of a fishing and beach themed style. Surf the cable channels to catch up with your favorite show, or step out on the deck to connect to the WiFi and send pictures of your view to people back home. A shared washer/dryer helps keep your packing light. Keep the party outside with some tunes streamed on your personal device while you fire up the charcoal BBQ. The open kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances and granite counters to add a bit of elegance to your cooking experience. Dine al fresco on the patio furniture and listen to waves crash as you enjoy your meal. When it's time for bed, this two-bedroom, one bathroom home can sleep up to six guests. In the master bedroom you'll be greeted by a king-size bed, while the second room has two twin-size beds. There is also a sofabed for more sleeping options. With room for a 30-foot boat, the dock will harbor your watercraft so that you can play the day away on the sapphire waters just outside your front door. Cast a line to catch some mahi mahi for dinner, or paddle out to explore the area in a kayak. Kick back under an umbrella with a good book, or explore the quaint town. No matter how you spend your time, this Florida Keys getaway will put you in a vacation state of mind!

Hi Eric, we're delighted to hear that our home was a great fit for your party and that the location served you well! We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We're excited about the opportunity to host you again and deliver another enjoyable experience!

We loved this quaint little duplex. The deck outside the home was perfect for sipping our morning coffee while watching the sunrise. We felt like we had our own semi private beach while we were visiting. The kids loved fishing off the dock, which was well equipped with a hose and area to clean their catch. There is a boat ramp right across the street from the house to launch your boat. We were able to secure our boat on the dock with no issues. It is hard to complain about anything when you are in the Keys. We are so happy we found this gem of a home. We were fortunate to witness a Sea Turtle Nest hatch one evening while sitting outside, which we did a lot of!
We brought our own, but the home had plenty of cooking utensils, pots, pans, and grilling tools. There was not a can opener, but it was not a concern on our end, just made more fresh veggies. We are already looking to book this wonderful home again. You really do feel like you are a 1,000 miles from nowhere.

We look forward to the opportunity to host you again for another wonderful vacation.

We had a wonderful stay here. Finding the property was a little tricky but that was overshadowed by the views. We were very fortunate that the couple next door were lovely people who shared the dock and beach easily. We hope to.go. ack!

Fabulous Location.

It really does look like the pictures! Fantastic beach. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The house is well maintained and very clean.
Eileen -

Beautiful property with breathtaking views, all from the comfort of your own little beachfront piece of heaven. The place comes well equipped with water toys such as kayaks, floats and a fishing pole. It was very clean upon arrival and the management company responds within an hour to any questions. I would definitely stay again. Just book it. You deserve it.

If you like a perfect place to watch sunrises and sunsets on a beautiful, fairly private beach, this is the place for you. Some of the amenities are a bit worn, but the location is priceless. This is not the location if you want action and lots of people. If you want to chill, it’s perfect.

Great location. Very clean.

would definitely recommend
Moshe -

Our family loved the place, the huge deck along with a dock right on the beach was amazing. There were plenty of chairs to relax on the sand or set upon the deck. We used the kayaks everyday, the kitchen was well stocked, and we loved the location. The beach was not for swimming but good for fishing, caught many fish there and near the bridge.
Jessica -

Rare to find a spot on the beach in the keys! We loved the beach chairs, kayaks, and well equipped kitchen.
Kathryn -

This house's beach and private location on the edge of Long Key is one of the most beautiful locations we have stayed at in years!
Situation between Marathon & Islamorada makes this easily accessible to restaurants & natural attractions but it also provides the best views of both sunrise & sunset.
The property has made improvements to the beachside deck which are not shown in the photos of the listing. There was more shaded outdoor seating than shown. We look forward to staying here again soon!
