Further details for this vacation house rental in Marathon, Florida

Swimming: You'll be glad to get your feet wet in the crystal-clean Gulf waters. At the beach, you can bask in the warm sun, swim or snorkel.

Fishing: A trip to the Keys would not be complete with fishing. Bring some bait and tackle and take our rods and reels and set out on a quest for Mangrove Snapper, Yellowtail, Grunts, Tarpon and all the other species native to the Keys. In addition to fishing from our dock, there's also back-country, fly, bottom and deep sea fishing. Guides, party boats and charters are all locally available. Still not enough? There's a bike treail nearby that'll take you to the famous Sevel-Mile Bridge (even better, we'll provide the bikes).

Dining and Entertainment: With several great restaurants nearby featuring the Keys' finest and freshest seafood, there's always a place to whet your appetite. Last and certainly not least, Key West is less than an hour away. Key West is the perfect place for a day trip where you can shop, eat and watch live entertainment. We have your spot in the sun waiting. Call or email today

Gerry's House-Grassy Key

RDM Ocean City, Md.
Review Submitted: March 12, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
Location location location...this location was superb...quiet, semi-secluded, few houses nearby, very private. The house was nicely furnished, included everything you would want for enjoying the water-snorkel gear, fishing rods, kayaks. Rental agent and maintenance folks were concerned and responsive...owners are very nice folks. Great area for jogging, bicycling, etc. Half-hr. from Islamorada, 10 min, from Marathon, 1 1/4 hr. from Key West.
Owner's Response: I'm so glad you had a good time at Gerry's Florida House. Thanks for all your positive remarks, we really appreciate the feedback.

Very pleased but room for improvement!

Cheesehead chef Midwest, Wisconsin
Review Submitted: January 7, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
This is a lovely property in a great location. All of the most important elements are present in this home. It is right on the water with gorgeous views day and night. We loved enjoying a glass of wine and some cheese and crackers at the end of the dock. (We are cheesehead Wisconsinites!)

The pool and hot tub systems are first-rate. The instructions for using the system and regulating water temperature, etc. were user friendly. We had great weather during the week following Christmas, and spent long, lazy hours at the poolside.

The master bedroom bed was comfortable and clean. The large room had a great view of the ocean and had plenty of windows for ventilation by fresh sea breezes. We never needed the air conditioner! The second main level room has twin beds and ensuite bath with a private balcony. Our only disappointment was the lower-level sleeping room. It became unpleasant for the children because sand fleas invaded and they woke up full of bites. Soon we found them sleeping on the livingroom couch for the remainder of our stay.

Our other concern, since we cooked most of the meals we ate at home, was the maintenance of the cabinets and cookware. We had to rewash a lot of it before using. The blender was filthy and after cleaning it, I found the gears were stripped so no Pina Colada's that night!
Over all, the few simple maintenance issues will certainly be addressed by the management after these short comings are brought to light and the next visitors will have a truly perfect vacation. Gerry, thank you for allowing our family the privilege of enjoying a wonderful time to bond, share and love in your cosy home.
Owner's Response: We're so glad you had a wonderful time at our home and we're so sorry that previous rentors left the pots and pans in such bad condition. We'll have our maids be on the look out for this in the future. The blender will be replaced immediately. As for the"no-see-ums" or as you call them, sand fleas, they are prevailent at certain times of the year in Florida and at certain times of the day - dawn and dusk and really don't have anything to do with the bedroom. Using Skin-So-Soft, I undertand is a good deterrant for these pesky little bugs.

We loved it!!

Mrs.H Lexington, S.C.
Review Submitted: July 28, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
Thanks so much for opening your home to my family July 12-19. We live in S.C. and usually vacation on the Carolina coast, but this year we wanted to try something different. We couldn't have been more satisfied. Even though it rained the first few days in the Keys, it didn't stop us. We spent hours in the pool and on the pier. Everyone loved kayaking, some for the first time. I went snorkling for the first time off the pier and with Captain Hook's. My husband brought his scuba gear and messed around off the end of the pier and at Captain Hook's as well. Everything was clean, and the amenities provided with the house were awesome and very thoughtful. Thank you again for such a wonderful week. We feel rested and can't wait to plan our next adventure.

We spent last Christmas and New Year at Gerry's.It was the holiday of a lifetime, so relaxing, and comfortable. we can't wait to go back, just the cost of the air fare from the UK that's stopping us.

I have Gerry's in my computers' favourites and still click on it just to see the house and remember our holiday!! Our first time in the US and I think we were spoilt - what a holiday. We were there for Christmas & New Year '07. Lovely family home from home with lots of extras - namely the pool & spa & porch. Very peaceful area to relax and unwind and well worth it. The kids lived in the pool and on the dock.....we will be back for sure, we love the Keys!!
