Very nice and neatly maintained house on a deep water canal. It has everything you need and the owners stay in contact to make sure everything is ok and you're enjoying your stay. I would definitely recommend this place when you're planning a trip to Marathon.

Needs some updating
There were several maintenance issues. The management was quick to address most. Location: airplane noise, as airport is close. One block off hwy 1, so convenient for driving. Not convenient for biking or walking.
