This is a beautiful property that offers a home like atmosphere as well as complete privacy. The property is in the community of
Plantation Key Colony. This is one of the best communities in the Keys. Ample roads, large lots (space between homes), very quiet, very family oriented community. This property is part of 'The Village'.
Meaning as a resident you have access to Founders Park for a (small fee for short term renters) that is considered to be one of the most complete parks in the Keys. This is a solid home that has been kept in a pristine condition and has all the comforts I high standard living. The location is ideal for all local activities and is still close to Miami. (Recently went through upgrades such as impact doors and windows, new huge deck and outdoor furniture). Note: I had removed property from VRBO to deal with permits and inspections. Home is now ready to go!

We have some Kayaks on the property that can be used. But you need to have a method of transport to take them to the ramp. The single user ones are light weight but bulky and the ramp options are in the community or a dedicated kayak only ramp with floating dock and free parking (no line no waiting) at the Tavernier bridge (5 minutes north of property). In addition, I do have a front door neighbor that has his own private ramp but cannot guarantee he will let you use it due to who is renting from him at the time of your stay.
There is a covered parking areas at the left side of the property that has a separate gate. This one is reserved by the owner which leaves his boat on site. However, accommodations can be made if needed. Yes, bring your boat and further enjoy the Florida keys with no waits and hassle in our private ramp! Meaning inside the perimeter you can park your boats, rv and cars. There is also more space for guests in front of the gated area. You will have access to the privagte comunity boat ramp that is normally no lines no waiting with gated secure parking (must follow are rules and requires security deposit for key).
