One of the beauties of the Keys is that no matter how many times you visit this area –you always see new beauty that you did not see the last time! This time we traveled to the Keys we found a hidden gem. It is truly one of a kind! It embodies the feel and vibe of the untouched mystique of the Florida Keys.
It is located right on Rt. 1 It is roughly about 12 miles south of Isla Morada right before the Dante B Fascell Bridge. If you are too busy enjoying all the picturesque views of the area you ill miss this ‘HIDDEN GEM’. It is called the Edgewater Lodge which has about 15 cottages/efficiency studios. It has been owned by the same owner for 37 years and who continues to put the love the back into the place.
It was hit by Hurricane Irma and the workers along with the owner worked endlessly to get it up and running in three weeks.
The average room goes for $179 a night and it includes two full size beds, shower bathroom, kitchen with complete fridge, stove, and dishes and silverware. It also includes the use of kayaks, fishing poles, and paddle boards—and if you bring your boat you can park in it one of their slips. All this plus great views for $179 a night plus tax.
It is a great place with a great staff. I will remind you that it is the Keys and staff tend to be on island chill time…LOL!!! It is worth making this one of your stops when you are in the Keys.
Take the trip to the Layton, Florida Key — you will enjoy your stay at the Edgewater Lodge!
With love, faith, and hope!
