You can use this magical location to launch all your Florida keys adventures! Canal patio for drinks? Lush screen porch for coffee? It's on!

The space:

Calypso Cottage is a re-imagined Florida-style mobile home. It is spacious and well appointed, with a jaunty tropical motif. The open floor plan provides perfect entertaining space with sight lines between common rooms as well as the canal front patio. The roomy screen porch offers comfortable seating amidst a lush, tropical setting. The master bedroom is oversize while the smaller bedroom still has plenty of space and lots of storage. Both beds are equipped with thick, new memory foam mattresses and there are also a queen size sofa bed and a smaller futon. The bathroom is small but fully outfitted, and for extra bathroom space there is a 24 hour bath house (absolutely immaculate!) directly across the way. Whole family need to shower at once? perfect solution. Need to do a load of laundry? there is a laundry niche with a modern washer and dryer in the cottage. Free use of Kayaks, bikes, beach gear and everything in the cottage means you'll never want to leave!

Guest access:

Parking at the unit is for one vehicle only. Guests can park additional vehicles in the overflow lot on a first-come first-serve basis for a small fee. This is arranged through the front gate. boat trailers are also parked in the overflow lot.
It is a short walk to the common areas or guests can bike the community or travel by boat, float or other vessels in the abundant canals.

Other things to note:

100.00 plus tax entrance fee to the community paid on arrival. This is a flat fee no matter what the duration. This is a fee charged of every group admitted to Venture Out and has nothing to do with VRBO

About Venture Out:

Venture Out is a gated resort community located at mile marker 22 which makes it less than 20 miles to Key West and close to the key deer refuge, Bahia Honda State park and much much more. Amenities in the community include 2 pools, a hot tub, a protected swimming area, a boat launch, general store, community center with a post office and reading library, game room, tennis, pickle ball and bocce ball courts, multiple bath houses and so much more!

Couples anniversary trip
We had a great stay! Other than the weather, everything was perfect! We had plans to dock our boat up at the house but it was too windy to take the boat out. We still enjoyed the patio and grilled out one night! We took showers across the street at the camp restrooms bc there were four of us and we would’ve ran out of hot water but that was no problem. We enjoyed our stay!

Getaway before Spring Break
Overall, a lovely property. Cozy would probably be the best word to describe. The location for where all we wanted to go was perfect...only downside, the pool closed the Monday through the week of our stay.

Nice Floridian get away.

Great little place on a great little Key!
Our first Keys trip and calypso cottage in cudjoe key was exactly right! Only thing I’d change is a little bigger bathroom. Very comfortable and centrally located. Host was very communicative from booking through check out. Cudjoe Key is a great location if you want to be close to Key West for daily trips but want home base to be a quieter, slower pace. Venture Out was a quiet, friendly, relaxing community. We will definitely be returning!

Amazing Stay
We loved everything about this place. The cottage was well equipped with dishes, towels, even spices. Bed was comfortable. We spent most of our time on the front deck overlooking the channel. Even done a little fishing right off the porch. Caught some snapper, grunts and even a nurse shark. We enjoyed walking to the pool area overlooking the gulf and watching the sunrise every morning. Such a pleasant community. Everyone was so friendly. We can not wait to come back. We've found our perfect vacation spot.

BFF Getaway
My friend and I love this little cottage. It was perfect for us! We enjoyed riding bikes in the canal neighborhood and sitting outside to watch the sun set with a glass of wine. Our host was responsive and helpful. It’s inside a gated community so we felt quite safe.

Cute Place in the Keys!
Cute older manufactured home on canal. Relaxing to sit on back patio by the water. Host was extremely responsive when raised any questions or concerns. Close to marina and some awesome restaurants. Some clutter/disorganization under one of the beds and in closet near entryway/front porch. Having use of bikes and other amenities was great!

Safe harbor in Cudjoe Key
The cottage is comfortably and attractively furnished on a canal with bikes and even a motorized cart to use. It is located inside a resort property with controlled entry so we felt very safe there. The resort has a pool, small store, and other amenities to use, as well. We enjoyed our stay there.

The nearby neighbors were friendly. They also enjoyed playing their music too loud, though I did not have the heart to tell them.

About the host

Hosted by Jennifer Neal

Host profile image
We are Jenny and Doug; a couple who enjoys travel and like to share our adventures with others. If we can make it happen for you, trust me , we will! So please enjoy this property as much as we do by kicking off your shoes, settling into you lounge chairs, and watching the water roll by.

Why they chose this property

A few years ago we started traveling by cruise ship and jet plane, to a variety of exotic locations. We made a life decision to discover our forever home on an island and begin living our best life upon retirement. (still a few years away). Last year we were sipping cold beverages on a wharf in key west, and one of us made a unique observation. "you know" I said to Doug. "Key West IS pretty much a Caribbean Island." Fast forward a few months and here we are! We hope you can enjoy the location for the same reason, and also discover some reasons of your own.

What makes this property unique

Keys life is the BEST life. Between the salt air, the abundant wildlife, the ever present sunshine and the turquoise waters of the Gulf and Atlantic, this area has it all! Key deer and other wildlife abound, there are hundreds of miles of channels and waterways, and untold seashells to be found. Once you discover the keys you'll never want to vacation anywhere else. With Calypso Cottage you can enjoy all this through the lens of the "Old Florida" vantage point. Back when Florida's architecture was pastel and simple, the landscape was unspoiled and still relatively untouched by modern times. But you will have all the modern amenities as well. with an unrivaled resort experience!
