WATERFRONT, VIEWS, HEATED POOL, 130 ft. OF DOCK, PRIVATE RETREAT

BOOT KEY RETREAT - OPEN WATER VIEWS -
Not your typical canal house, there is plenty of privacy here. You'll be in your own secluded, retreat. Your own private heated pool, 130 ft. concrete dock, a 400 lb. Ice Machine Plus a beautiful private HOT water outdoor shower,
Foosball Table, and views! You're not looking at the neighbors across the canal and they're not looking at you. Your view is of open water, nature's own show. There's always something going on. Fish swimming and splashing, exotic birds searching for food. You can pay more, and you can pay less, but we honestly believe, you won't find better VALUE for your holiday dollar.

You'll watch boats in the harbour and the countless dingies comings and goings. Bring your binoculars, you never know what to expect. You can relax, be yourself, feel at home here. A simple evening here will be a lifetime memory. It's a real 'Retreat' from your normal everyday life.
You'll have 2 kayaks and 4- bikes for your use at no additional cost. If your kids are old enough, these can be real fun entertainment for them, or you! Our dock, 130 ft., will accommodate a small flats boat or a 35 ft centre console, or both.
parking for 2 boat caravans and 3 cars on property
Boat launching ramps are a 1/4 mile down the hwy. and
LOTS TO DO, ALL CLOSE-BY

There's, newly renovated, Sombrero Beach and Florida Country Club Golf Course about 1 mile away. Bahia Honda State Park is right over the 7-mile Bridge. Both these beaches have bar-b-que grills and are rated among the 'Best'
There are plenty of local restaurants, bars, entertainment and shops. When you want to venture out and explore the other islands, you're right in the middle, it's only an hour from Key West or Key Largo. Give us a call or send us an Email.

The house was very nice. Loved the beachy decor. The outdoor patio/pool area was awesome. It would be a little close if you had 8 adults as the bedroom with 2 beds had double beds, not Queens. The manatees came by our dock 3 times. It was awesome to see them so close.
