Gorgeous house, GUARANTEED to beat any price for a 3BR in Marathon

Three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in open concept with everything you need in the heart of the Keys. Ample parking spaces and well manicured property greet you as you pull up. Home includes 500 pound ice maker for those who love to fish or want to keep cool in the heat, pole holders on the dock for your evening catch, and a second story deck with amazing sunsets.

For fishing; a 10 minute ride through the famed Sisters Creek to the open ocean, 15 minute to the seven mile bridge, six NM to Sombrero Reef.

Chaise lounge chairs on the full length back deck for catching rays and a gazebo to give you shade while you catch the breezes that float through Marathon. Sombrero Beach, one of the best in the Keys, is a ten minute walk away. See the sun rise beyond the kitchen window and front deck. This home can accommodate 2 families, or up to 4 couples for a week long getaway that is just over an hour to Key West or Key Largo. One mile to Publix and Winn Dixie for all your grocery needs. Large eat in kitchen has seating for 6 at the bar/counter with open view to dining room table and living room.

Your choice of king bed in the master, queen bed, double bunk beds, and queen fold old out couch provide all you need for your party of 8. If soaking in the ocean did not relax you enough your bathroom contains a soaker tub perfectly lit by evening light in the window as well as bidet , double sink, and plenty of storage as well.

Great location for day trips throughout the Keys
Nice place. Clean and comfortable. Great having the dock to fish (even without a boat). Ice machine was a huge plus for packing a beach cooler.

Nice Location
This house was in a nice location and accommodated our boat just fine. The house was clean and spacious. Beds were very comfortable. When we got there the ice machine did not work. The owner called someone out and it was fixed right away. Very responsive.

Hard to pick a favorite!
I fell in love with the kitchen at first (who wouldn't) and then the deep soaker tub, the comfy king bed, the sunsets, the walking path to the beach, paddle boarded to Boot Key and saw a manatee (see more standing than with kayaks). The home was clean, comfortable, and easy to access. It had everything we needed for our stay. We actually only packed carry on luggage as we didn't want to check and lose our bags. Harvey was very responsive in advance with all the questions I had while packing. I loved the colors and décor and felt right at home in this gorgeous well kept house. You can watch the sun rise over the Atlantic from the kitchen window or chairs on the front patio, if you don't want to walk to Sombrero Beach. The commercial ice machine provided plenty for fishing off the dock, the boat, picnic lunch in a cooler, or for drinks! I sleep well in ac, but want to enjoy the outdoors whenever awake. Everything you want is within an hour so we weren't stuck in the car. My husband loved not having to do anything, and being perfectly content in the shade on the back deck or watching the sunset. The kids loved walking around Key West, parasailing, jet skiing, seeing the Key Deer, and also the Marathon Turtle Hospital! So much to see, can't wait to return! Thank you for a wonderful vacation.

Great
We would love to stay again. We had a couple of hiccups at the start which were taken care of right away. Convenient to town. Quite. Affordable. Someone mentioned before the long canal ride out. There are two ways out. One to get gas which takes a bit. One straight to the Ocean that takes no time. Ice machine on the property. Excellent.

Amazing Stay, Awesome Property!
We are two boating/diving/fishing families and this is our 9th year staying in Marathon, but first time at this property. Our stay was for 2 weeks. It’s spacious enough for two families (with 4 teens) without having wasted space. The home is well stocked, clean, and maintained. The, ice maker, parking space, and location is excellent! Plenty of room for all of our dive/fishing gear, kayaks, and paddleboards. The proximity to Sombrero beach, Sombrero Lighthouse, 7 mile bridge and reefs for diving is so convenient! Communication with the owner is also a plus! He was super helpful and responsive. Definitely a great stay and highly recommend this place!

great property and Harvey was great to work with
The house is great with an open floor plan and a bunk bed room perfect for kids. The ice machine was a savior as well as the bait freezer. A floating dock would of been nice for the boat but the ladder worked well enough. The fish cleaning table was amazing. Throughout the process Harvey was easy to contact and very helpfull. Will be staying again.

Great week
My girlfriend & I as well as a few other couples stayed for mini lobster season. It was a great clean house, everything seemed to work as it should. Harvey was very helpful with everything and answered any questions quick. We had 2 boats which fit on the dock, it was tight but we got it. Overall a great choice for a rental.

Amazing house
This house is exactly like the pictures show. Amazing huge second floor outside deck with covered seating and table to enjoy relaxing. We had the whole place to ourselves there are no other units attached the entire house and huge dock out back was ours. We fished right from back canal. You can bring your boat and dock it right behind the house. We had a great time and would definately recomend renting this home. Amazing home in an excellent location.

Sun and relaxation
Property was nice, but needed some things fixed. Ceiling fan switch in guest room was broke and the fridge needed a deep clean. Front door knob and lock needs to be replaces, I locked myself out and was able to slide a credit card in the lock to get back in the house. Great location, very close to everything.

Fantastic Stay with Plenty of Entertaining Options
We loved our stay at Rock Resort. The house is clean and came with a fully equipped kitchen. The back deck is amazing, and the property is in excellent condition. We fished, kayaked, and walked down to the beach almost every day. This place is a moderate walk down to Sombrero Beach, which was huge benefit to us. The check in process was very easy and Harvey Rock was easy to work with as our contact for the house. We would certainly come back in the future.

Super clean house in an excellent location
We stayed in this house for one week in July 2020, and we had an excellent vacation. The house was super clean from the moment we stepped in, as opposed to many other rentals that we stayed in recently, and Harvey provided all the relevant information ahead of our arrival, and also during our stay. The house has a good layout with high quality furnishings and everything you might need during your stay, and the location is excellent, in a very nice residential area, 5 minutes from Sombrero Beach, on a nice canal, and very close to a large shopping center with Publix, Kmart, Walgreens, and many other stores and restaurants. Marathon is also an excellent choice for exploring everything that Florida Keys has to offer, from Key West to Islamorada. Thank you Harvey and hope to be back someday!
