This is a great little place....the owner, Melinda, let us know when we checked in that she would take care of anything that we needed.....and was true to her word during the entire stay. The rooms aren't "fancy" - but they're clean and well equipped. Being able to dock our boat right outside our door was fantastic. Your "back yard"... more

I read all these positive reviews and thought I would give it a try. Boy, did I make a mistake. Either the other reviewers had never stayed in a quality facility or I must have missed something. The sunsets were gorgeous, but they are anywhere on Florida's west coast. We won't be back. more

Just returned from another great weekend at the Edgewater Lodge. From our room, literally at water's edge, the view of Florida Bay seems endless, and the sunsets never disappoint. This "Keys-style" resort is clean and comfortable, operated by attentive owners who can also provide local knowledge of fishing/diving activities, as well as recommendations for the best local eateries. more

Our family stayed there for years. We had numerous family reunions there. This is one of the best spots in the Keys. My sisters name is Diane. To have your boat docked outside your room door is awesome. Any body know how Barb and Terry are doing? Clint Gregory Looking for a job its alll true more

Thank you for sharing your comments! I hear over and over again from families like yours that have great memories of spending wonderful fishing vacations in the Keys and Edgewater Lodge. The previous owners now live in South Carolina. Thank you again!

Had no clue where to stay, had been to the keys many times in my life as I live in South Florida, but just wanted to get away for a couple of days. Found this place, and what a find. Room very clean, view no other like it. Staff and management the best, when I left their it felt we... more

I have been visitibg the Keys for many years with family and had not been back since I lost my husband. We loved to be on the water and I wanted a new place to go. I found the Edgewater lodge thru the Chamber of Commerce, saw the photos, read the reviews and thought why not go for it, I... more

The whole property is old Florida Keys style. So the cottage we stayed in was similarly old, but clean. The a/c was deafeningly loud. The location right at the end of Long Key is just great for us boaters, as we can just zip around the corner and be in the Atlantic and off to the reefs or stay bayside.... more

Thanks for the review! Paul is replacing the offending A/C unit in that cottage as I write this. As I have stated here before, if we are notified of any problems we take care of it right away. With insurance money and a Small Business Administration loan after Hurricane Wilma, we have spent tens of thousands of dollars repairing the...

Not fancy but to open your sliding glass door right out onto the water..just a foot below you is heaven. Ifyou like to snokel, you step out of room and see everything from lobster to parrot fish. Edgewater sites along one the overseas highway and your room has a view of setting sun. The owner is wonderful and caring. We... more

The staff were nice, Melinda allowed us to get our room 2 and a half hours early. I hated to ask her, but she made it seem like we weren't putting her out at all. We rented a boat at pier 68 and used the dock in front of our room for a day, great location. When you consider how... more

I am so glad you had a great time! We have been working very hard this year to take extra good care of our customers and with a great review like this it makes the hard work worth it!Great pics too--the captian should be "The Florida Bay" instead of the "ocean"--I do not want anyone to get confused. Thanks again...
