Beautiful property in the Keys
My husband and I along with our family and friends absolutely loved our stay at Anchor House. The beds were comfy, ACs worked like a charm, and the house was very spacious. Plenty of towels, blankets and towels were provided. The check-in/check-out processes were very easy and the property managers were super responsive.We can't wait to book another stay here!

Traveled with a party of 10. If you want to fish and relax this is the spot. Looe key is a must to snorkel, just a 25 min (pontoon) boat ride. The house was equipped with everything needed to grill and chill. AC- works AMAZING!! We will definitely return. Property Host* was on point with places to go. We will return......

This house checks all the boxes. The house is clean, well stocked and a great location. Fishing off the point was a blast, everything was well maintained and Walt the caretaker was super friendly, pointing us to some great local destinations and services. I’d definitely stay here again

Absolutely beautiful location!
House was very clean which is our #1 priority. Spent most of the time there sitting on the back deck enjoying the view and watching the boats go by. Close to good restaurants and great for a day trip to Key West. The layout of the bedrooms was a little inconvenient but we worked threw that and had a wonderful time.

The perfect home base for our extended family’s trip to the Keys. We had a house full of people, but we were able to stretch out and enjoy the lovely back porch that overlooks the water.

We loved this property and all the amenities that came with it. I am a General Manager of a large waterpark resort in Wisconsin and cannot compliment enough on the friendliness of the owners and the cleaning staff. This is a perfect location to visit and would highly recommend it. Thank you so much for a great memory for myself and my staff. We will be back. Personally, Cathy Black.

Beautiful View
This is one of the cleanest homes we have stayed in. It looks new, and has many amenities. Kids played some of the games that were in the cabinet, adults fished, and we all sat on the patio and watched the sunset, which was beautiful. Right on the water. If I had to give any critique, it would be that the beds were very firm, which we aren't used to, but by the second night we were used to it and it was fine. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Nothing less of spectacular!
Host was very accommodating and helped with some last minute changes. The home was very clean, well stocked and the furniture seemed to be all new. The outdoor space was amazing, beautiful brand new deck with excellent water access. Gorgeous sunrises and relaxing setting.
