SUMMARY:Lower Keys House-Based Adventure
DESCRIPTION:Looking to escape that gap between winter and spring where the weather is uncertain for any outdoor activity? We have an app for that. Our lower Keys escape combines a comfortable canal front house rental with some fantastic fresh meals\, amazing water colors and superb weather. Outdoor activities include kayaking out our front door\, options to trailer to other launch points to explore further afield\, maybe some SUP time\, a trip to Bahia Honda’s amazing beach\, fishing the flats or a snorkel trip out to Looe Key. \nEach week is built around you. We’ll stock our trailer with your choice of kayaks before we leave Michigan or you can drive down with your own. If kayaking is your thing\, we have two high level instructors on hand with a maximum of 6 participants\, so if you are looking to level up on Leader Training\, work on your roll or navigation skills\, we can do that too. Want an ACA Instructor course or an update? We can make that happen too. Talk to us and let’s build it together. \nYou may be thinking that this is something you can do on your own\, but the 28-day rental minimums in Monroe county and the difficult backcountry access and unfamiliarity make that both difficult and unlikely. Joining a small group that knows the area\, with a great location and a legendary reputation for great food makes this a unique vacation option\, with great gear and a reasonable price. \n*Getting there:  You can either drive down or we can pick you up at the Key West airport (45 minutes away). Flying into Miami and renting a car is also an option… 3 hour drive down. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Dates for 2027\n\nMarch 14 – 20\nMarch 28 – April 3\nApril 11 – 17\n\nWhat’s Included\n\nDouble or single occupancy lodging (sign up for double only if traveling with a friend)\nAll meals based out of the house\nAirport transport from Key West\nSea kayaks\, SUP and other assorted water toys\nLogistical assistance\nExperienced local guides\n\nWhat’s Not Included\n\nGuide gratuity (5-10% suggested)\nRestaurant meals (likely two nights out)\nAirfares to and from Florida\nPowerboat rentals\nTransportation from Miami (if you decide to fly into Miami)\nPre and post trip lodging and activities\nTravel Insurance (Highly recommended – we recommend you look at World Nomads\, Allianz\, travel guard – and make sure it covers adventure sports)\nPersonal Items: Be sure to review the  packing list: It is important that you review this list early on in case you have questions or need to order gear.\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nRegistration\nNOTE: If a booking date shows on the calendar below\, there is space available but always feel free to call or email with specific questions.
