WATERFRONT, VIEWS, HEATED POOL, 130 ft. OF DOCK, PRIVATE RETREAT

BOOT KEY RETREAT - OPEN WATER VIEWS - Just updated in 2019
Not your typical canal house, there is plenty of privacy here. You'll be in your own secluded, retreat. Your own private heated pool, 130 ft. concrete dock, a 400 lb. Ice Machine Plus a beautiful private HOT water outdoor shower,
Foosball Table, and views! You're not looking at the neighbors across the canal and they're not looking at you. Your view is of open water, nature's own show. There's always something going on. Fish swimming and splashing, exotic birds searching for food. You can pay more, and you can pay less, but we honestly believe, you won't find better VALUE for your vacation dollar.

You'll watch boats in the harbor and the countless dingies comings and goings. Bring your binoculars, you never know what to expect. You can relax, be yourself, feel at home here. A simple evening here will be a lifetime memory. It's a real 'Retreat' from your normal everyday life.
You'll have 2 kayaks and 4- bikes for your use at no additional cost. If your kids are old enough, these can be real fun entertainment for them, or you! Our dock, 130 ft., will accommodate a small flats boat or a 35 ft center console, or both.
parking for 2 boat trailers and 3 cars on property
Boat launching ramps are a 1/4 mile down the hwy. and

A great week
Property was easy to enjoy with plenty of space inside and out. We spent time in the pool every day, enjoyed kayaking & paddle boarding in the harbor, biked to the seven mile bridge a few times and you are close to a lot of great restaurants.

Beautiful Retreat
We had a great time! We loved all the different activities provided by the house: cornhole, ring on the hook, kayaks, paddle board, fishing rods, heated pool, and foosball. We could easily take out our boat from the dock, clean fish at the fillet table, and the kitchen was great for cooking all our delicious fish! Great family fun with everything we needed!
