Great location with easy access to all the ocean activities around Islamorada. The fishing was awesome we caught Maui, Tuna, Snapper and even a Sailfish. The manatees visit the dock daily and we felt like we were living in paradise! We can't wait to go back.

Fantastic stay. We come down to the keys once a year in June for a week every year and this was the perfect spot. Super clean and updated. Everything you need to cook anything in the kitchen. Great water access to the ocean or the bay right around the corner. We kayaks and paddle boards down to the end of the canal every night at sunset. Communication was fantastic. Very responsive. No negative comments whatsoever. Will definitely stay here again.

Perfect keys house

We stayed for a week for fishing and diving. The house was perfect for our needs. We had ample space for our 32 center console including space for our trailer and 2-3 vehicles. The house is close to the end of the canal so boat traffic was minimal. Communication with Chris was great. We had an issue with the ac when we woke up we made contact at 6am and he had the Ac back up and running in just a few hours. We would stay again and recommend to others.

Great home!

Beautiful home. Very well maintained! Owner was excellent to work with and very clear instruction and communication. The only downfall( not the owners doing) but the home is at the end of the canal lots of debris gets stuck in the water. Especially when Debby came to town😉 The canal is not swim-able nor fishable since lots of people go out on their boats and come back to clean their catch. Neighbors were very nice! Nice quiet neighborhood.

Had minor issue and owner got it taken care of right away good deal on house and location was good one not road to property is very narrow so impossible to bring boat on trailer to home plan to put boat in the water prior to going to home and if you are not great at backing up a trailer in complex areas plan on leaving trailer somewhere else. We were able to get trailer to home but was very challanging

Meeting Islamorada and the Keys.

This was our first trip to the Keys and the Irvine's great canal house is right in the middle of everything! As the many other reviews stated, the house was bright & clean and ready for an active family. We didn't see any manatees in the canal which made my duaghter sad-- and we realized too late that having our own boat would have been a good idea.... But Chris is an excellent 'host', was super accommodating, full of good local hints & knowledge and a good Embassador for his world.
