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

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!

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.
We had some difficulties checking in . We were not told the lot number, and the security desk didn’t have any info on our stay. Luckily things got ironed out quickly. Had no tv, the Ruku remote would not work . And couldn’t take a shower, Couldn’t get water to shower head. The unit Was clean and comfortable .

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.
