Keys getaway

The house was wonderful, exactly the way it looked online. We loved the location because it was easy to get to the Atlantic and the gulf. Cool property, around an acre that is all fenced in with a beautiful pool and tiki hut. the industrial icemaker outside was also awesome. More than anything we have never had such a great experience with the owners and employees taking care of the property. Every text was responded to expeditiously. We’ve already told several friends about Happy in the keys

Happiest in the Keys!

Property management was absolutely incredible! They were so attentive and responsive. We really appreciated the Happy in the Keys team checking in on us upon check-in and throughout the week, and we knew if we needed anything, we could reach out. The property accommodated our group of 9 adults perfectly. We will for sure be back.

'THE BEST CATCH'! The Fish Camp is a GEM

This is an outstanding property. It is a duplex, divided by a top floor and bottom floor. It's very well stocked. There's multiple beach towels, clean linens, the kitchen is fully equipped with any kitchen tool you may need. The outdoor living space, which is a tiki hut, is fabulous. Its HUGE! There's two full-size picnic tables covered in a nice plastic material, great for playing cards boardgames, Dinners, cocktails whatever you choose. A clean large grill too! There is a large refrigerator outside as well as a industrial size ice machine. And a box freezer for bait. The dock is beautiful and could fit a huge boat. The property has a nice covered hammock area, as well as a kayak launch. The pool is fantastic. It's large and very clean. The entire property is spotless. The management team is excellent !! highly recommend staying at the Fish Camp. The only negative is that it is located in a industrial area with multiple boat drystacks. We are fishy boat people so it never bothered us. The entire property is fenced in with a colorful privacy fence that makes the outdoor space so private! Easy boat access to the gulf or the Atlantic. Boat rental places are next to the property making the rental process super easy! Great fir a big family gathering or multiple couples!!! Lovated in the heart of Marathon-

March Madness getaway

We stayed at fish camp with 9 adults, and it worked out great, the house was everything it claimed to be. The outdoor area stole the show. The tiki hut with the tv in it was perfect fir the guys with march madness going on, and the women didn’t mind it because they could be in the pool or just lounging in the chairs. With the refrigerator and ice maker right under there as well there was not that much of a need to go into the house. The dock is great your at the end of a canal so plenty of room to get in and out we had a 25 foot boat rented fir the week and was no problem. We were able to see manatees a couple times as well. Would definitely recemond to anyone

Great house, very attentive management. Only downside is it is next to. Marina and they do a lot of work well into the evening. So it’s a bit noisy for our liking. Large outdoor area at the home would be much more enjoyable. But will definitely try one of there other properties.

Absolutely fantastic stay!

Fishcamp was perfect for our family of 6 adults. Plenty of room to stretch out and settle in for the week! House is extremely clean and well maintained. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need for your stay. All linens, towels and huge supply of beach towels was so convenient. We really enjoyed the outdoor space, tiki hut and pool where we spent most of our time when "home". We put the dock to good use with lots of fishing and going out on boat we rented from right next door. The last two days we even had visitors at the dock, a momma and baby manatee that entertained us for hours! If you are looking for "quiet", this may not be a good fit, as there are lots of businesses surrounding the property that are active and noisy during the day, but evenings/nights it does settle down. The rental staff is friendly and professional. Check in and out was so easy! Happy in the Keys makes sure you get to enjoy every last minute of your vacation! We are already picking dates for our next stay! Thanks for such a great week!😁🏝

We had a great time at the Fish Camp. It was the perfect place to take our boat. The dock was huge with a place to clean our fish. The outdoor ice machine was so wonderful to have.
