Simple old school seaside resort. Well managed,clean and great location. If you’re seeking high end services and grounds this is not your place. Looking for laid back, open grounds with great views this will suit you like many older resorts found on the Keys with character. Cabin 10 was our pick and very quiet at night.

We had an amazing weekend when we stayed here for my son’s birthday. They have the perfect beach area with lounge chairs and a little tiki picnic table, they also have a barbecue area with picnic tables. A nice pool, however, the pool closed at 7:45 PM. Other than that, the grounds were nice and clean, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. They also have kayaks that you can use right on the property.
