We had a great time with Bill and Mary in February 2016

It was a great stay on Marvin Key. We were kept busy paddling very interesting mangrove channels. Mud key was enjoyable & challenging due to windy conditions. Windy enough to keep the bugs away the entire 3 days. Bill made Beth a campfire birthday cake! Beautiful sky at night. The "back porch" sandbar was a favorite. Highly recommended by Kim and Beth!
